Default Re: Reprints?

Never say never, but Reinforcements is unlikely to get a reprint.

You are correct in your assessment of the counters in Battlefields; it's more about the maps and some additional counters than it is about balancing out forces in the basic Ogre set. While you would get a lot of extra units that you _could_ use, there are definitely units that are under-represented (HVY tanks and GEVs, for example).

It's still the best purchase for the money to expand what you have, though. Introducing the Green Maps with the new terrain, and the full ruleset will go a lot further than what you'd get in Reinforcements (which still focuses only on the original Ogre map).

A great way to get lots of units quickly is by PnP the free Classic Counter Set. It has all the available units in the 80s-style so you can print on different colors of cardstock (or use a hilighter to color them).
