Thor, I have to abide by the ruling and though it sucks, it was ignorance of the rules. I do gave to apologize to the team because its going to affect this frame and its not fair to you all.
I have always seen the s3 frame planning as an opportunity to put our problem solving skills to similar tasks as our historic counterparts. so I usually support the problems the janitors present us.
however when they get to the point where they are meddling and forcing us into the clear miss-use of our very limited assets, all because the other side refuses to adjust their tactics to the reality of an aircraft that actually dares to do something better then theirs, and instead repeatedly threaten not to participate if it is available to us as it was in the real world. well it kind of stings, especially since many of us have faced the nearly constant axis uphill climb our entire s3 career. taking away one of our advantage moments, well there are far to few of them over here to take this crap lightly.
so a big <F> to the opposing crybabies and a WTF to the janitors for tolerating it.
now, on with the event, and you were right to apologize hawk, and correct in your contrition which is clearly sincere.
don't misunderstand me, my being annoyed at our situation (and the reasons for it)
does not change how I feel about not following rules and restrictions that are intended to balance this game so it is suitable for our needs.
I however do not see, nor ever have seen how the treatment of the 262 does anything but boost allied s3 morale. nobody bitched about the hoover until BIG when we finally figured out what
it was good at as represented in WB. since then it has become somehow intolerable. Interesting since the only thing the 262 does when used correctly in WB is to force the escorts to face some risk while escorting. Heaven forbid escorting be more hazardous to the escorts than bass fishing. you will notice that nobody cries over Luftwaffe altitude under performance relative to our opposition.
whatever, I could go on forever with this stuff. I don't like being told how to use my assets, especially when the usage Is a clear mistake that even the Luftwaffe had figured out by 1945. just effing Stupid, our counterparts would never put up with it, not without threatening to walk away anyway.
sorry this shit just pisses me off,
