[INWO-list] Restrictions on deck design

[Scott McNair]

I dunno, I personally think that Resources are sort of self-restricting...
the more resources you have, the smaller your Group pool becomes (unless you
make up for it by having fewer Plots).  I've never really played against a
Resource-heavy deck that was unbalanced as a result.

I'm a fan also.  It helps strike a balance, I think, where cheesy
repetitive degenerate decks tend to be shunned while cool tricky
degenerate decks can still thrive.  I particularly favor it because you
would probably see a greater diversity of cards, and pulling out that
surprise, i-never-would've-expected-it card is always more fun then
pulling out that predicted, so-you-pack-10-SMwnMtK-now card.

I would think that groups should not be restricted in terms of
duplicates, because circumstances where you can use a duplicate group in
your hand are fairly limited (and they are usually not very transient).
I would be inclined to restrict resources, though, to make some kind of
a trade-off for including 6 cyborg soldiers.

I've always favored duplicate restriction and I think
this idea has merit.  Does it make a distinct between
duplicate plots and duplicate groups (plots being the
ones more prone to abuse)?
