Modern wargear limits ?

Hi Thesix

It is good that you make comments, especially if English is not your first language.
Respect!

There has been a lot of work done by the SPCAMO team to get the pricing correct. It is very difficult, especially when MBT runs from 1946 to 2020.
The early years units that you find too cheap are relative to the uber weapons of years 2000+

This game was made in 1990 and has been re-made many time since....but the code is still from 1990...so some things just cannot be changed.

This is the limit we face....sometimes things just are not a good simulation.

This is why the Designers have tried to add as many parameters as possible that can be changed by the players.
This way there is a chance to create ANY type of game you can wish for.

I understand what you are saying about using too many rules...but you should seriously consider the opinion of these very experienced PBEM players. They are always looking to make the game a test of skills between the players....not a battle that is dominated by one unit from one OOB from one side...which makes for a very boring battle.

In the end...you can decide with your opponent to have many rules...or none at all.

One time, I had a very enjoyable battle...25 snipers vs 25 snipers....very good fun. Other battles I have played have been only tanks...nothing else.
Anything is possible.
I imagine you could have a good battle using only attack helicopters and nothing else.

When you have played against one person for many battles, you create a set of "rules" that you both agree give the best game...the battle you are both wanting.
What Chris is trying to do is use his experience, and mine and Vesku's etc...to create a full set of rules for PBEM...IF YOU WISH TO USE THEM...and that is the important part.

In the end you can use some of these rules, all of them or none.
That is the great thing about this club, this ladder and this game....flexibility and a desire by those who are members to improve our games for all players.

I commend your efforts Chris and Vesa.
Hurrah!
I know that I will using these rules in the future...and in other games, perhaps only a few of them :-)

Cheers all
Jason

To pooh pooh on any one style of play is not correct and would only hurt the club.

Well, I hope you don't think it's what I'm doing
I was just saying that playing with units costs may help to correct some of the problems. As I said, I usually accept rules from opponents, I don't ask any.
I'm always afraid to not tell exactly what I'm thinking with a language which is not mine.;)
