I have fun playing Aces High 2 outnumbered or not, with or without the horde, at high alt or on the deck, or attending snapshots. In my years of playing in the MA, every country goes through cycles. At one hour/day/month/year, bish has the numbers and is rolling bases, then the nits, then the rooks in no particular order. It's part of the game, squads come and go, switch sides, merge with other squads and so on. The fact is: taking bases is only ONE aspect of the game, some folks like to take bases, some just like to dogfight, some like ground battles and so on. I like to do all but gv'ing, but I have fun with the rest. Just be nice, have fun, squelch the people you don't want to hear or read text from, relax, and enjoy the game.
That's my two cents take it as you will.....
