Hi!

Thanks for the vote of confidence Kotrin, I appreciate it. Regardless of
what GW does, Net Epic will remain free and of easy access. In fact
someday in the not so distant future we hope to get Net Epic gold up and
running. In the end, we'll always be here you need not fear that.

Jervis has a tough battle. The old adage rings true "you can't please
everyone all the time". I think he should just decide what "band" to
please and stick with it. Epic A has its charm, but I don't know if it
will please those of us that "went our own way". I won't go into the
same old rants and rave; it grows tiresome after so many years. The only
thing I will say is, play what you like. IF you like Net Epic it will
still be here for you and anyone else to try.

Peter

Subject: [NetEpic ML] Jervis' letter on EpicA...

I don't want to start a war, but frankly, to me it
appears Jervis' move are a deliberate (and quite
desperate) attempt to get NetEpic players back into GW
customer base.

I knew it would happen and nonetheless I've decided to
drop GW. I refuse to listen to deadly mermaids !

I had read NetEpic rules and they seemed great.
Epic:Armageddon was already in the pipe when I saw
this old Space Marine box in my gaming store. The
owner warned me: "buy this if you want but remember
that's it's an out-of-print product line !".
So be it.
After two years, I own several armies - tyranids,
Eldar, IG, SM, Knights, Squats. Purchased on e-Bay,
taken from old store stocks. All on square bases. All
with their NetEpic booklet.

There's NO WAY I'll ever get back in GW area (from the
rules point of view).
From every version of EpicA i've read, it seems to me
that Jervis is trying to redo Epic without telling it.
GW know the power of NetEpic and fears it. Frankly,
why do you think Forgeworld produced Tau with
round-base individual models rather than the
rectangular 5-man tray defined for EpicA ? Because of
us !

Epic Armageddon is far worse than NetEpic, and I hope
that with version 5.0 things can go only better.

Long live NetEpic !

Kotrin
