You've definitely never heard of the Game of Thrones Trading Card Game (though to be fair most booster packs in trading card games in general are random)

Back when I played, it was usually 1 rare, a few uncommon, the rest commons.

I've bought so many bronze booster packs after selling an elite gren, a sturmpanzer and 2 support grens that I could put up another 2 sturmpanzers and 3 flakpanzers on the market.

Still no extra Pz2s.

Are all reward units uncommon cards or are some of the bigger reward units (TA's etc.) rare's/legendaries?

Trying to figure out if it's better to buy gold or silver booster packs.

The Infantry are more common, that smaller vehicles/medium tanks are uncommon/rare. The heavies are mostly rare/legendary.

You'd have better chances buying silvers for the Pz2s.

Nope I wouldn't. Already did the maths. With re-sale of useless cards I'm getting 4-8 chances at a panzer 2 per 110 initial gold spent buying bronze so 6 average chances)), whereas I'm only getting 2-4 chances for a panzer 2 per 115 gold spent buying silver. Sure, it gives me 2x chances at a rare unit (such as elephants), but those come at a cost of 2x chances at Panzer 2.

All in all, buying bronze for Pz2s is on average at least twice more efficient than buying Silvers.

Unless of course you made silver pack have a greater chance of giving specifically units, rather than Warmap cards, but unless the chance is more than twice as high... Kkthx I'll buy the bronzes and sell any other tanks, infantry and etc. I find on the stock market to fund my exploits.

100gp for a 1.5 chance of Uncommon, and a return cost of 65
vs
250 for 3 chance of Uncommon, and a return cost of 120

With the chances of Rare for the Silver instead of Commons (no RW unit is common) seems like a better chance to get a RW unit to me.

SPECIFICALLY to get the Pz2, yeah.  But not RW units in general, in fact Silver/Gold packs are the only ones Id buy if I was trying for any RW.

Nope, even for reward units in general you're still getting a better deal. 4-8 rew unit chances for 110 gold vs 4 rew unit chances for 115 gold (I've done it with sellback. Bronze pack sell-back is actually 72.5gp average, silver is 135gp sellback. Ends up being 27.5 gp/pack for Bronze, 115 gp/pack for Silver. Basically 4 packs of bronze for each pack of Silver, assuming you don't roll any reward units at all. If you do get reward units, well, job complete. Go speculate it on stock market Tongue.

If anyone is up for the challenge of making a 'Master card list' for the forums, I will send you a spreadsheet of the cards and chances so you can make it up.

Can't you just upload the spreadsheet on google docs or something where we can just look at it? Eventually somebody might just put a forum version up.
