- "1v1", "FFA: All welcome!", "NEWBIES only", "COOP vs AI" should _not_ have _any_ unlocks at all. Everything should be available.

- "SMALL TEAMS", "TEAMS: All welcome!" should have strict unlocks policy, when every unit that _potentially_ may harm to newbie/team/be misused, _should_ be locked until some lvl/xp.

I suggest to lock out every static unit, except: factroies, mex, wind, solar, simple radar, sonar. Terraform should be locked too.

Newb is like a drunk kid playing with fire, while he is driving at 100 miles/hour on oncoming lane... And you keep telling them: go on, good boy, everyone did this! If you kill yourself and 10 others, it's ok! Tomorrow 20 new kids will join our community!..." (...)

Following this analogy I do _not_ suggest completely block them from playing with fire and drinking alcohol... I just tell: let them do this in more safely way when they can't harm others. If someone is going to kill himself, let him do this, okay, but when he won't take 10 others in this wonderful journey to the hell gates with no way back.

- newbs like to start from "TEAMS: All welcome!". They won't be confused with 1000 new units, they will be restricted to few tactics. This will guide them on the right way - using mobility forces and not making singu in base protected by 20 stingers and 10 shields.
