Perhaps it is you who are mistaken my fine feathered friend? You sure seem
to take any attacks or gripes about Epic40K WAY too seriously and
personally. You co-design it or something? Jeeze.

And it is clear you have a strong bias towards the other, previous, Epic
games. Flame on Sainted Defender of Epic40K! :)

Please desist in personally attacking others who happen to not like your
favorite game. And who cares how many games you have played really? It boils
down to personal opinion. I've played plenty of games in my time, I happen
to enjoy Adeptus Titanicus more then Epic40K, but guess what? That's my
opinion.

By you. Again, don't take things so personally. Unless you had a hand in the
games design you come off sounding like a obsessive :)


Or worse.. a "Fanboy". <ducks as the jellied petrol starts to burn>
