It's hard to tell. I, personally, prefer more restricted OBs, since
I enjoy "making due" with restricted lists, but I'm probobly in the
minority on this. I also agree that it will make it more difficult
for others to play, since they may not have the correct units.

I think the best compromise is to restrict the options just as much
as is required to give the proper "feel" to the scenario. Thus you
might want to restrict the number of vehicles a player can take or
require a player to field X number of points worth of WEs.
