Chad Harrison Posted October 4, 2002 Share Posted October 4, 2002 I have played a bunch of TCP/IP games, and have started a hand full PBEM games, all of which have had standard rarity. I have messed around with variable rarity in AI QB's. But, in some ways I miss the old days of no rarity factor and am thinking about trying my next games with no rarity. Is anyone playing PBEM/TCP's with no rarity? Whats your experience been with this? Flak trucks ? 88mm Pupchens? With standard rarity, you always see the same tanks, mostly atleast. With variable, you get some variety, but still a lot of the same. In CMBO you never knew what was going to show up next. It was usually a Flak truck Chad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warlord69 Posted October 4, 2002 Share Posted October 4, 2002 NO rarity! Unrestricted! Everything evens out in the end. And CMBB really tries to get you to use combined arms, but thats hard to do in smaller battles, when you can only bring one tank, and one crappy tank to the battlefield. Attacking on the eastern front is TOUGH, why make it harder and not let one side have less firepower? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwazydog Posted October 4, 2002 Share Posted October 4, 2002 I havnt played without rarity for about a year since it went in, hehe. I do play with variable rarity though so you still see the oddities from time to time. Personally Im more interesting in historical play, but each to their own.

Redwolf Posted October 4, 2002 Share Posted October 4, 2002 I totaly love variable rarity. The exitement of what you get cheap today, of even more so, what the other guy gets cheap today, the nagging when variably rarity rmoved a negative rarity. Etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
