And it could be easily solved by banning Armageddon.
Oh, well... This discussion should probably have appeared in another thread but I do not want to prove anything to anybody. People play the game they like

CBM is not balanced *yet*. Its certainly better balanced than vanilla. Nation balance needs the most work.
I would maintain *pretenders* are pretty balanced in CBM. I mean, there's a couple that are still out of whack, but most of them are well-costed for what they do. (This necessarily means you can't make up for a weak nation with an undercosted pretender anymore, but nation balance is something that needs to be addressed anyway, fixing the pretenders possibly just made it more obvious).
