« on: February 22, 2008, 08:02:52 PM »
I'm a bit perplexed as to why the sudden shift to axis by numerous formerly allied players?

if this continues JG54 will be forced to switch to the allied side or eschew the AvA for the sake of balance.

these goings on demonstrate very poor form on the part of the subject players and I wish you players who are in allied squads please remain on the allied team.

Its because they wanna be on the winning team this time. Axis would have won all five rounds last war if it wasnt for the midnight milkers. I would log off at 1 or 2am, go to sleep wake up at 8am and find that all the bases that we took when there were 40ish people on are gone and we have all our townless bases gone.


With our little squad trifecta we cant loose.

I shall do as you wish and remain allied. Looking forward to our next meeting.

No rules saying you have to stay a specific side.  You want to fly axis, fly axis, want to fly allies, fly allies...

Its their $15, so they play whichever side they choose...


As for myself, and my Tomcatters, we are staying Allied!!

Sadly...that is true.  I still don't believe the concept of the AvA is being grasped by the new faces.  It's not about having uber rides and pwning all before you...it's about reliving a point in history.  The Spit and huri even with only 303s is more than capable of downing any Luftwaffe aircraft in this setup...it just takes careful accuracy.

Get your convergence right and those 303's are like laserbeams.

The winning side for this round will be whoever uses their planes with the right tactics....

Its that simple...

Except for 110s cannons, both sides have pretty even plane sets.

The Hurricane and Spitfires .303s are equal to the 109s.  Even though the 109s have cannons, its limited ammo amount balances for itself against the Spit/Hurri.

You can tell he flys allied. The six .50 cals plus its super armor makes it uber in this setup. That it it being a midwar plane in an early war setup.

LOL

How is it a mid war plane when the Navy had them in 1939?

How is it a mid war plane when the French government ordered them [of course they surrendered before getting them]?

Maybe you should read up some history books.
