I'm currently working on the lackey booster/starter/pack generator.

What are actual ratios for (in %)
DS9: WB and R
DOM: WB and R
ROA: UR and R* and R+ and R
Reflections: SR and UR and VR
MM: UR and R+ and R
VOY: UR and R
BORG: UR and R+ and R
HA: UR and R+ and R
TMP: UR and R+ and R

What boostes in Sealed Deck packs?
What boosters in Second Anthology?
What boosters in Enhanced Premiere packs?
Ratio of sets in Reflections boosters (non-Ref foils)?

Edit: are there Booster in MM, Voy, Borg, HA and TMP with variable 1-3 Uncommon numbers?

IIRC The site http://stccg.germes.org used to have most of that info. I referred to it for such random pack information.

But now that site seems to be down. I can't find those particular pages from the "products" section cached on the web.archive.org wayback machine either.

The death of that site was a huge blow. They also had all the old official Rules Supplement PDFs I used to rely on.

They've been offline for over a year now, so I don't think they're ever coming back.

Are they in the wayback machine at all? Maybe something can be salvaged...

I scavenged everything I could from their rules section at the time. That was the start of my Rules Archive, and I think, over the years, I've managed to fill in all the remaining blanks I couldn't get at the time (and then some!).

But there were some disappointingly large holes in Wayback's coverage of the site, as Tim has noticed.

Try these........ if you read the entries it mentions the rarity, though I don't see it talking about Dominion WB promo rarity.

On ROA you need to do a bit a math as it tells you how many of each rare were on the rare sheet. So for the 21 cards with a third copy on the sheet you have a 3/121 chance of pulling them and a 2/121 chance of pulling one of the other 29 rares.

other sets have similar print sheet breakdowns. See if that helps. Let me know if you have other Qs. I haven't gone through all these entries to see if they have the info you need, just posting the links.

Reflections is a bit of a crap shoot from what I understand.

Of the two boxes I've been through, every pack had exactly 2 cards each from DS9 and the Dominion (and this worked out to exactly 7 rares from each of those sets per box). The rest averaged out to ~6 cards from WB95 (with the odd Warp Pack or I2PG white border card thrown in), ~3.5 AU, and ~3.5 QC per pack. Rarities per pack averaged out to ~12.2 C (I'm including the WP/I2PG ones here), ~3.6 U, and ~1.2 R. (I do know I opened at least one pack with no rares, and at least one with three rares.)

But that's a small sample size, and it came from two consecutively-numbered boxes. I'll note that I (disappointingly) didn't get anything from FC or EFC, but others did.

The foils did have published rarities: VRF 1:1.75, SRF 1:2.42, and URF 1:60.5. My pulls were in line with those numbers (34 VRF, 25 SRF, 1 URF).

I can't believe Hill's has them up to $119 a box now
