OK Peter, isn't this the point, I'm sure that those are all good ideas, but
what I expected something different, a revision of the "Actual" NetEpic to
correct weak points, to introduce new good ideas keeping the original view.
Heresy was in my opinion the alternative choice to NetEpic, a case study
where a new game system could be tested and implemented.
I'm not sayng "no I want still play with NE 4", just that if this is the
moment for "Advanced NetEpic" Then I just want to open a discussion about
NetEpic 5 for those that want correct the actual system.
I see changing of point cost, changing of army composition etc. we talked
about a point cost formula just a guideline and not like a revision
dictate, I see tons of polls about thing never tested, if those changes are
intended to be compatible with the actual system then introduce them,
playtest them (in the actual system) then (then) vote for changes, AFAIK it
was the original NetEpic Way to work.

I think no one want a scism, as Nils said this is a group, and I'm sure
that also for rules availability the more the better, but I want to focus
on the goal: a quite different system or a correction of the old one?
I think this don't have to be seen as criticism but as a warning about what
we are doing, all these discussion have just one purpose, let us enjoy this
pastime.
