Default Re: what mix of forces do you use in PBEM?

I like to play smaller battles with limited points. This forces the purchasers to make hard decisions about what equipment to purchase. It also makes it intersting when you dont have enough troops to cover the whole map. More tough decisions.

As far as what I purchase its always a mix. Artillery,Im partial to rocket arty,but I dont always use it. Air is usually limited to 1 or 2 in games I play. Or none at all.
Armor. I usually buy some of the best tanks availible in any given situation. I generally like to buy a decent amount of infantry,then some enginners and /or para's.
I usually buy some aa guns and other gear like mg units,maybe inf sams in a more air oriented game. I like some AT or ATGM infantry. I dont usually buy mech infantry,but not always.
