Fun as watching grass grow

20 eny, 2 sided war, and hq down for 3 hours....fun fun fun....not. Great way to spend $15 a month. Really don't think this game will get any better with AH3. Kinda wonder why numbers are dropping like flies :bhead

I see a Rule #4 in your future.  But I agree.

ENY has ruined some great fights.  Too bad for Germany and Japan they didn't have ENY to stop the Allies.

I won't even speak of the dar issues.

Not all the answers, but we can see what doesn't work.

If you're talking about yesterday, I would have joined but the connections weren't playable. Since PingPlotter showed the worst values in the last few hops, it's probably connected to this thread: http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,371585.0.html

I've got an older system by today's standards that still runs the game well by my standards.

get a shade so that the side switching rule doesn't affect you. then you can easily jump sides and continue the slugfest wherever it may be!

become the aggressor instead of the victim!

My money is too precious.  I am also in a Squadron that stays mostly Rook.   So that won't work.

If you can afford a second account just for circumventing a game rule, you are rich in my book.  :old:
I certainly can't  :(

Not like this.  Two countries vs one is not advocated.   Nice try bud.  :salute

I pay for several accounts, some for people that cant afford it, 2 of my own.... most of the time I don't even use my shade, I just keep it to help
support the game. call me what you like, it is what it is.... the point is that we have a 2 sided arena which hardly no one uses. then we have people with this inane loyalty to a chess
piece. I think it would be more fun for them, if they just went to the lowest side. that's what I do.

because the side switching is so long, I don't really blame them for getting all cranky, but I certainly to wouldn't squawk about it,
id do something about it.
