Edited by: cold lazarus on 19/08/2006 11:42:41 Ok got my second megapack and finaly sorted out my cards (thnx to the goons for giving me the time to sort them by picture shade lvl)
now i look at the cards and rairity of the cards i gota say some cards just have to be rarer than others, out of the two megapacks i got 1 battleship armageddon, now considering the rarity of these ships there are still 8 battlship cards to find, where as i have multiple battlecruisers, logistics, from each race each considered rare but only one type ie battlecruiser so are battleships considered rarer that battle cruisers? i did a post somewhere but the answer i got was rare = rare there are no rare cards deamed rarer than other rare cards but IMO that cant be.
8 rare bs cards i get 1 4 rare bc cards i get 7
by the amount of battleship cards in the game 8 compaired to the amount of battle cruisers in the game 4 the bc should be considered rarer.

I got the folowing rare ship in numbers:
9 Battlecruisers (4) 1 battleship (8) 1 cruiser (4) 5 logistics (4) 3 industrial (1)
between brackets are the number of different ships available for them.
not claiming anything, since i know how tricky random distributions can but, also keep in mind some rares are included in the starter packs

another thing i noted is the distribution of foils. i got 8 rare foils 7 uncommon foils 12 common foils (7 cards + 5 regions/starbases)
extracting the 2 foils coming from the 2 packs i bought that's 6 / 7 / 12 distrubtion while one would expect 1 / 3 / 11 distribution there, folowing the distribution of rare/uncommon/common in the packs. when looking at the regions/starbases its becoming 6 / 7 / 7 / 5 while you would expect 1 / 3 / 10 / 1 seems to be even chances for a common/uncommon/rare/region to be foil in a pack.

Well, in my one Megapack I got 4 BS's (one foil) and only the Ferox from the starter kit.

Why would the 8 BS be more common?
You think Shivan Dragons were as 'common' as other rares, like Rock Hydra or Force of Nature?

In numbers terms, a card type of which there were 8 should appear more than a card type of which there were 4. Fixed cards notwithstanding, of course. But still, I pulled a hell of a lot more BCs (10) than BSes (4) from my 4 boxes (that's not including starters), too. On average, you'd expect to see twice as many BS total as BC. This is all random, of course, but of the 5 people I know who bought boxes, everyone got more BCs than either cruisers or battleships.

Still, there's nothing that said all rare cards have an equal chance to be found.
I like the idea of some rares being more rare than others.
It makes my Foil Raven feel special.

Don't worry I make up for your riches (curse you!) in my 1 pack I got 5 rare ships 1 tempest 1 Ferox 1 Arbitrator 2 Superior Iterons
My other 20 rares were 1 location, 13 startbase structres (?!?) and 7 events.
For some reason staring at my pile of 122 common ships is kinda depressing.
