Aw, man! I gotta *think* in this game? You mean it's a *strategy* game?

I dunno, the thought of cheesing out units in Epic (a la 40K, giving all
the funky wargear)... I can't really picture it, except for titans (or
an IG player taking piles of Deathstrikes.)

Yeah, that sounds okay. Now, instead of buying the supplements (or
borrowing the other guy's copy if he lives close enough) to see what I'm
up against, I can look in my own copy of the books. Would this mean
that I'd be getting army cards for *every* force?
