One of the things that I've been looking at are the rules for SM2. They are
short, easy to understand, and very easy to start with. I believe that
NetEpic should have a basic rule set like SM2, so people can get in quick.
Complexity can be added in following chapters of Advanced Rules. At this
point I feel that the NetEpic basic rules are to complex for someone to dive
in without help. I don't mention TL because of the changes to the sequence
of play to accomadate the "huge" Titans. This is not a knock on NetEpic,
but rather a desire to get back to the SM2 roots for a streamlined basic
system. You could call it "Quick Play".
