Tiger-buying limits?

[herroberst]

There has been past discussion on being alert to agreeing to QBs in years where one side may have a decided advantage, e.g. the introduction of Tigers in a year the Allies had no counter to which was what, '42 or '43. If it is a year where the Allies get Sherman Fireflies, 17 pdr AT guns, and/or T-34/85 and 57mm ATGs he shouldn't gripe too much.

Maybe that is what he is referring to - but it not a rule, just something to be aware of.

Personally, I don't care what they buy as it makes it more challenging - although I did have one young opponent who set parameters that I wasn't paying attention to - flat ground, no cover and he had Tigers v my T34/76s - I was destroyed in the first few turns but it was my fault. And, one opponent that was upset when I bought captured Panthers against his Germans - he quit - surprise was too much for him. I felt bad but shouldn't have.
