The war can be won 2 ways. Number of Total Fields and number of Airfields.
Total Fields is 6, Total AirFields is 3.
You could have 9 bases as a Knit and the Bish can own 4 Airfields. Now if you had 4 Airfields and 5 Vehicle bases, and they took One of your Airfields, you would have 3 airfields and you lose the war.
If they had 7 Total Bases and you took the easy way and snagged a VH, taking them to 6 Total Bases, They lose.
They are working on the ENY, takes a little time to fine tune. The old formula was balanced against every plane, the new ones need a little time to tweak, no biggie, they are working on it.
