Umm... soo... why are there BH infantry? Are they meant to be playable, or are they
ghosting cities? The only way I could see practical use for that is to try and nerf Sensei
and Hachi... but it certainly doesn't explain why BM gets a free AA while OS has no such
comparable unit.

BH to nerf Sensei

AA to make up for FTA

Unless you start the game with high starting funds, AA is too much for OS to handle.
Chiku (04/11/2017 02:56pm):
$7000 starting funds then

This all seems pretty silly to me.

-------- Story Time ---------

Billy: That's not fair! You got the bigger half of the cookie!!

Joey: Yeah, but that's why I gave you the Maserati, remember?

Billy: Oh right, I'll take the Maserati any day!

Joey: Now that I think of it, you seem to be getting the better deal.

Billy: Alright, I'll throw in a yacht.

Joey: Deal.

------- FIN ---------

Billy and Joey don't need Maseratis and yachts to solve the problem over who got the
bigger "half" of the cookie. They need to either split the cookie evenly, or get another
cookie to divide, and then make sure Billy gets the bigger "half" of the second cookie.
The expensive modes of transportation just introduce a lot more complications than they do
fairness: They're completely random and uncalled for, they require much more effort to
assess based on value and utility, they'll depreciate (probably at different rates), and
they both have some sort of upkeep cost associated with them. Let's not even get into the
potential tax ramifications and how that might differ by state (or country). Whatever the
case may be, someone's probably losing out on the deal and I can bet you that the
discrepancy will be a heck of a lot more impactful than the result of that slightly
miscalculated cookie division.
