Yea..I think certian Epics shouldnt be alound to be used. Aspect of Kord and Iron Golem spring to mind, along with a few others. Also I think some of the huges break the game a bit, namly the Fomorian and a few others. Its just way to cheap for how much damage it can do, not really fair imo. | | Welcome to Eternal Crack...

Hmm.. as for epics.. in theory their cost should balance out.. what's the cheapest one? 150+ isn't it? so it's half of even the highest possible warbands (300 at lvl 10). It should still be fair, in theory, vs an equal point total of (well selected) minis. I can't think of any examples where this is obviously untrue, sure they're behemoths, but you'll pay for it :).

| Yah, look if the Drider Sorcerer isn't banned from EC, why should DCI legal minis be banned? At least give them a shot for playtesting first.
Personally, I think epic Rika (143 pts) may prove too much for the EC, but I wanna see a bunch of playtesting before any discussion of banning her. | | Completed trades: Zarnof, Ehren37, Eric is God, griffrat, cavedweller, Kyrinn, Blade, Humble Minion, Noghri, Ilarue

| Yes you can use Epics
If players have a big issue with this we can consider a minimum warband size before they are allowed... but I don't see it as a problem. | | Join the Eternal Skirmish Campaign.
