Are you afraid of our mighty offensive?  Every time I'm on, there are tons of Axis players and no Allies.

Eh, I think it is because this is the WORST time of year for gaming. Many of our players are college aged and exams are a total bitch. Also the weather is starting to warm up, people are vacationing, etc....

Coupled with the fact that there were fewer allied players to begin with...

i always thought the problem was timing, seems like there are tons of allies on during the day (eastern time) and only axis on late at night.

My available companies:
Allies:
*AB company going for raid assault
  Infantry going for tank reapers
Axis:
*Defensive going for rocket artillery
  Blitz going for lightning war
  And an experimental Terror company going for subversion consisting of all volks and two King Tigers

Actually, it is because once again, the balance is in favor of the axis, in almost every aspect of the game.  So it has again become no fun to play allies just to lose.  Wonder what kind of war we can have if everyone is axis...because its heading that way.

Something is weird though, whenever the axis keep loosing people still play, but when the allies start too loose they all stop playing...

There's been an overall decline in daily player averages actually, especially on weekdays.
And with the majority of the newer players still joining axis, the decrease in overall player numbers has been hitting allies in the face more than axis.

Combine that with the fact that all the new players just use spammable units in most cases and the game is just getting less and less fun. 10 Shreks for example...

What happened to the days of sitting down with new players and answering their questions and giving them advice in general?

Sure doesn't look like the axis have a hard time rolling over allies with tanks, judging by both the unit & company leaderboard, or should I call it 'the axis leaderboard'

Now if allies had the kind of cheap AT axis had you'd see a much more balanced leaderboard Wink.

still happens, just there are a lot more new players and you really can't help all of them constantly.

The newbies outnumber the vets now... it used to be one new player arrived and someone said hi and helped them get started.
