I know what hordes are, I know what they do, and I know they are still quite prevailant in todays AH.
If am wrong, why then is there at least 3 threads, well passed page 2 in replies, about the hordes and their negative effect on the game, posted on the first page of the general topics forum? Please prove me wrong.

I'll keep it short and simple, Anton.
If the "concensus" were against hordes, there wouldn't BE ANY HORDES due to a lack of members. Get it? The threads are all started by a minority that thinks they have a monopoly on what constitutes successful gameplay.
Come on into the MA, and watch. You will see what I mean. The real concensus is that concentration of force (what the experten are calling hordes) is the way to capture territory. Some of us play that game, and enjoy it. Obviously, enough to create the dreaded "hordes" some people object to so strongly.
Personally, and I have posted it many times, I think the cooperative tactics and concentration of force make for a more enjoyable experience. I HATE getting gang-raped by two or four enemy planes when I fly around alone. I almost never go plane hunting by myself, since even the experten run for the ack or a friend when they are disadvantaged in a fight. And I think fighting at 1000 feet alt is silly, unrealistic, and counterproductive.
