Whew! I was feeling badly for introducing the Thread: now I feel
Better! We certainly do need a Balance of 'Theory' and 'Practice' to
make this game keep evolving in a Healthy Manner--

That was the most frustrating thing about that experience: I had
always previously played with Mature gaming Veterans who followed
common sense design Principles: It was my first real experience
playing against a Broken Opponent in Epic (lots of Broken Opponents in
40K, sure: But not Epic which I considered my "Home Game"). It was
kind of shattering to realize the Game I loved could be used
Incorrectly...

So: How would one defeat the Eldar with a Khornate only force? Are
DropPods available to Chaos now.....?
