I never get any vet back, i play to win and sacrifice vet, yet this re-roll nonsense gives me jack shit back, probably the best ive got back is a 3xp m3 halftrack. WTF.

Now bear makes his own funny thread. It's unsurprisingly not funny.

it's random, lose a lot of units, you up the chance of something returning but that also means you run the chance of gaining back something crappy. I've lots a vet 2 ranger that came back in re-roll, its awesome.

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.

It allows you to play a little more aggressively when helping lower ranked players really.
It's not something you should count on to get your units back though.


I've had a vet 2 croc and some recon tommies returned.
Most stuff is just fresh units though.

Since you are more likely to keep unvetted on field, you are upping the chances of getting those back instead.
You would have to flip your retreat mode of thinking, and retreat unvetted off, and leave vet to die to get vetted units back (if at all).

Huh
All units that die have a X% of coming back, regardless of how many other un/vetted units died, or any other factors.
Retreating unvetted units, and letting your vet die, will not increase or decrease the chance of a reroll at all.

I know that.

BUT. if you are keeping unvetted on the field (thus they die) then obviously, in the launcher, you will be seeing a lot of these as re-rolls, compared to vetted units you retreat.

If you retreat unvetted, and they all live (get off field) and you leave vetted units on field, then again, obviously you're re-rolls are all vet units.

Having 10 units die, and only 1/10 is vet, same chances of a reroll or not, you are more likely to see one of those 9/10 units rerolled in the launcher.

It's pure luck - don't count on it EVER to bring back a vetted unit.

You may not get a single re-roll out of 50 dead units, and you may get every single one of these 50 units re-rolled.

Luck is luck, don't fuck with her.
