Official Vanilla vs CBM debate thread

[Festin]

CBM for me is just that - mod that focuses on balancing to make as many existing options available as possible. Endgame Diversity is fan-made content, an while I have nothing against it, I do not want it included in games by default.

As for tartarians, it actually would be nice to try a game where they are completely banned. I strongly suspect that the game would lose next to nothing in terms of fun, since SC-centered endgame is quite dull anyway, and probably gain something - by prolonging the midgame, which is fun, and by encouraging diversity.
