I'd need a large sample to make sure - a sample that probably can no longer be gathered - but I don't think AR really needs a buff.

At least, not the way the balance was designed.

The Jeffs never intended to balance the game for AccBBS. The helpfile even warns that it loses depth. And AR is much weaker due to AccBBS - with AccBBS on most HG/QS/-f races start with 125-138 resources, while an AR typically has 94-109 (HP has 57-63). Meanwhile, with AccBBS off HG/QS/-f races start with 30-40, while an AR will start with 50 (HP has 25). They're still weak until they get Con 12, obviously - no mines - but that vulnerability is less exploitable.


UR is terrible, yes, and BET is only worth it if profitable scrapping is allowed (and it's generally not considered an intended feature). MA is really good in a game that goes past 2500 - you can straight-up expect double your opponents' productivity - but I'd feel like an idiot if I took it and then a MT handed out the Genesis Device or somebody failed to shoot the AR.
