Those that play RFB

More like inconsistent, a factor RFB reproduces masterfully. Somehow, it telepathically knows when you've said "Japanese ASW is crapulent!" and deals you a couple of elites.

Yeah, don't do that. All environmental mods have undesirable side effects, even what is included in RFB. The RFB Team just realized that just about everyone would layer some environmental stuff on there anyway, so sought to balance eye candy with gameplay. It's mostly successful. But loading anything environmental on top ruins the gameplay balance.

Ducimus had the same problem with TMO, eventually leading him to remove environmental mods altogether. That's a situation for SH5 to work on. Wonder if they will?
