Hey guys!
Just thought i'd pop in and say hi and give my thoughts on this.
I do agree with you that a game should not revolve around a few
units, and to be honest it gets quite boring playing the Slann.
But, you have never played with the Slann, and you don't realize
how difficult it is to play with the mechs when you have so few
other detachments to move. A squat army could easily, and i mean
EASILY annihilate the mechs every time if you just know how to do
it. Both Peter and Nils have told you how, you just havn't done it:)
But, having said that, whatever you guys decide is fine with me, i'm
sure it won't be the last change anyways :)
