In many discussions regarding un-sportsman like behavior, it is often argued that in real war, if the opportunity to " insert behavior here" you most certainly would. My argument is, this is a game, not war, and there are many differences:
In war you do not respawn, when your dead, you're dead
In war you can not be repaired by bombing hangers
In war you can not be repaired and reloaded in seconds
In WW1, the tanks were slower,and had less accuracy and range, and could not reload as fast.
And there are many more differences.

In summary, if you want to be a warrior, see a recruiter!

If you're going to play this GAME, be a good sport!



If you build it, I will come.......and bomb it !!!

All good points. Some of us have to restrain ourselves sometimes... But, its a very good argument.
