| Thank you. Point taken. If opinions aren't offered they can't be considered. I just didn't see a response from you regarding this rule on my first post. That post occurred far earlier on this thread. So, I quietly exited the process. Don't wish to butt in where my opinion might not be consistent wit... |

| I don't care for the God of Machines rule either. "Everybody seems happy with it". Everybody is a pretty small group in my opinion. Those that don't post or watch the boards fanatically don't seem to count. |

| I'm not wild about the God Machines rule for two reasons. 1. It tends to give TK heavy armies a fairly easy BTS goal. 2. It tends to promote cheap numerous battle titans rather than encouraging a player to build more expensive titans. If you can lose BTS simply by losing any battle titan, then you m... |

| Thanks Neal. Indeed it was a great game. I have to say it was one of the best games I've been a part of since playing epic. The two opposing armies were completely different in style and capabilities. Yet the game worked out to be quite a chess game, only fun with killing and stuff. The manner in wh... |

| I am glad to see attention given to the AMTL list and appreciate you stepping forward. In regards to the background on the Knights, it would seem slightly out of character for a Knight like background to come from such a blue collar type of industry like working the forges in armor.

QUOTE "BM of shame"
