You got 40 pts?  I only got 20 in all three plane types :(

As for the gang-bang.  There was quite a bit of action going on at the south end of the map (Knight vs Rook) so it wasn't a complete 2 on 1...not even that close to being 2 on 1.   I fought down south once and saw many Rooks attacking one of our fields.  I think, at that point (bish down to 8 flds), the fight was to see who would win the reset ;).

The Bish still did a fine job of defending what they had left.  At one point I dove into such a large FP that new planes kept appearing as others died (whats the vis max here?).   What a rush!

Bishops on a valiant effort.

What a THRILL for you guys! WTG!

Did you guys get a neat new pocket protector with those "we won a reset" perk points?

I'd have been there but like a lot of other Bishops I was out with a real woman doing real neat things that I can't tell you young ones about yet instead of sitting at a bloody computer till the wee hours.

lol, my wife was asleep.  I wish I was a "young one".

Toad, are you the same Val-lover from WB?!?  If so, let me know and I'll now run from any Val's I see in the air.

Map reset happened around 3:15 AM Central US. There were around 60 Bish fighting from one airfield after the last CV group (242) they had got dropped. We were rushing the last Vehicle base (51) and airfield (34) at the same time and each trying to close it out.

I think the Rooks ended up with around 105-110 bases and we Knights ended up with around 140 or so. Plus the Rooks kept trying to hit us hard in some areas in the south but we kept pushing pilots into those areas and massing on the Bish to wipe them out.

It was a VERY good time to fly. I got on at around 10pm Central and flew solid except for 3 discoes around 2am.
