You've ever heard about "the hunting law is never discussed with the rabbits..."?

Hi!
Hmmm.. Jervis is sure saying that alot lately in firepower, that the game is dying. I wonder what he bases that on. The changes sure sound pretty SM/TL, interesting.
The funny thing is they never seem to listen to their player base. What I mean those that love and play epic 40k seem to be pretty happy with the rules, yet they bring out the AT II rules and these changes. They didn't listen to us prior to releasing epic 40k and now they don't listen to those who DO support the game by changing it. Go figure.
