Default Which side do you prefer?

Just a poll out of curiosity. I often notice that stacking seems to favour the russian side more often than not and would guess that a slightly higher % of people prefer to play as Russians.

AXIS all the way... the only thing RO lacks though, is axis doesnt have enough attacking maps unlike Allies....

I'm axis myself but yes I generally prefer attacking than defending and we could do with a few more germans on the advance maps.

Where is the no prefered side option?

more experienced players seem to go for axis, but on publics with random players more often than not the russians end up with the extra man or 5, especially on tank maps.

I used to play Germans only when I first started, now it doesn't matter anymore. I just join the team which is weaker. But I do like defending too, so sometimes I prefer the defending team

I also join the weaker team but I prefer the attacking team over the defending team.

In many maps, once things get rolling, both teams are attacking and defending so it usually doesn't matter much which team I'm on. I also prefer the Mosin over the Kar but I don't let that influence which team I join.

It depends on the map, though I usually like to defend more. So that dictates my side the most.

I prefer the side that is the underdog, usually that means the one with less players...

I do have a slight preference towards the Germans,but I'll gladly even the teams.Usually though,it depends on my mood,so I join the side that is defending/attacking,depending on what I want to do...

Soviets all the way. They're commies like me and they have good weapons. But I still steal MG-42 whenever possible.
