As far as EPIC being brain-dead, its cool to be able to

you know them, you rarely need them. E40K kept the other tables and

We could finish 3000 point games in 2 1/2 hours. The unit stats were
easily memorized through playing. The only real problems was when
special units got conflicting/ poorly written rules (LOB status, effects
of wave serpent, thunderhawk vs all other fliers special abilities,
etc.)

I'm playing E40k, and I mostly enjoy it, but I'd still rather be playing
 SM/TL epic.
