I guess my issue with that statement is any experience I have had with ATAG, Blue is hard after the objectives, and generally I can find enemies to fight around those targets...

Which is no doubt attributed to the fact that blues have a wide range of bombers to choose from, reds only have the blenheim at their disposal.

DO you mean Red's dont like the bomber they have and want more variety? Otherwise the numbers available are the same are they not?

Is it safe to assume *most* (not all, don't wanna go generalizing anything because people start crying) pro-vultures are primarily blue pilots?

I'm noticing that trend.

I would tend to agree with you on that point, but remember, reds tend defend and don't venture over.

I welcome reds vulchering the blue bases anytime, saves me the trip...

What is a "biggest vulcher" and who has earned this seemingly prestigious title?

That is true! I think, in all my time flying in this game, I have only seen 4 red pilots on the axis side of the channel (Incidentally, they vulched me. LOL).... most of the time it is us blue pilots who do all the travelling and the red pilots just circle around the same old airfields... and that is the story on every server that uses the channel map I have flown on.

Why is that anyway? Come on over to occupied France, Allies! The ground textures and shading are much nicer over here! None of that radioactive green! Plus.. you haven't seen 'Noddy Towns' till you've seen some on the continent...... and, if you have ever been to mainland Europe in real life..... you know they are pretty realistic.

Here is me getting "vulched" as I come in for a landing... I was minding my own business, I was delivering some tea and crumpets to so lovely British ladies, and to add insult to injury someone tried to drop some bombs on my head... it was all quite rude...
