I'm in a 4 vs. 4 league right now, Snipes v. SSD3. Whoever set the league used old BM rules- no tailing, complete knowledge of your opponents status, etc.

The point is that I didn't realize how much I relied on tailing until I couldn't do it.

Has anyone else come to this startling realization? It's like two different games.

I think I'm in the same league and suffering the same problem.

I'm in the same thing, with Triplanes. Sorry to be grumpy, but it really sucks and I wish I hadn't joined.

So you can see when you've damaged your opponents engine, but then only have a one in three chance of finishing him off. And yes, so many good moves, which give you a tail and therefore a guaranteed shot on the next turn just don't do you any good. There is no reward for good flying... what a let down!

The worst of it is that by missing it when hitting the "sign up" button once, you get 16 games of this!!
