Hi!
Experience is important, but rules saavy is equally important. Almost
everyone on the list is pretty rules saavy. As I have mentioned before
you don't need many years of experience to foresee the impact of a rule,
you can extrapolate with a good amount of accuracy. When its something
new then experience is a lot more important (as in a brand new unit),
its less important with rules and units that have been around for ever.
For example:
1. Higher wind host costs translates to less of them in a given battle.
A good thing because its tiring to see wind host armies.
2. Higher praetorian costs will make them rarer (as they should be), but
as rare as titans, which for all intent and purposes, they are the
equals of.
The added bonus is all the moaning that I have heard over the years
would also be settled. We have tackled stuff like this before. Old hand
will remember the "great holofield" debate. The longest thread in Net
epic history and it got solved. So will this, in time.
Peter

That much is obvious, yes.

Haven't counted. Not as many times as IG, which is why I'm a High Lord
of Terra and not a farseer in the current project.
So?
If the point is that everybody should play every army for some years
before requesting any changes to any army we'll be mostly reading
Peter's monologues in this list. :)
There is such thing as "rules experience" (for the lack of a better
term) and that is something I do have. The said experience is making me
wonder the logic of a system which is based on point values, yet the
said values are not consistent.
