I would be moderately surprised if this actually happened, since I don't
see GW eliminating high-cost models from it's inventory. They might
change the rules for them, leaving them less powerful but still in the
game, which would be fine with me. It's not that I think these units are
unbalanced, I just don't like high-cost, high-powered units in general.

Still, I'll hold off painting that second mega until the new rulez come
out...

I think you're the first person I've heard say to be actually *looking
forward* to rebasing his infantry ;) It was a rare flash of foresight
that caused me to glue my infantry with Elmers Glue (weak and water-
soluable), so rebasing my infantry will not be difficult. I can not
say I am actually looking forward to it.... ;) I am sure of one thing,
I won't be using permanent glue on the new bases either.

I wonder if epic40K will adopt the "you must shoot at the closest unit"
rule from 40K? Has anyone heard anything about this?
