There's a new name?
I actually did not play any of the older epicses. Too busy with Barbie scale Grimdark back when. Bought the first minis in hmmm... 97? So I am not really in the know about this net epic thing. Seems to be more nostalgia-styled armies there.
Just this once: It's called Skarsnik Green. Or did you mean GW?
NetEpic is essentially Epic edition #2 but with rules improvements by the online community. I'm guessing you started out on the ill-fated Epic 40,000 which was the edition that replaced 2nd edition Epic? Anyway, that's the system I've loved for close to 20 years and it's hard for me to change. No doubt, most NetEpic players are the same and using the same forces they bought all those years ago, so this would explain the nostalgia.
BUT... today I've met up with a friend I hadn't seen for a while. I think that we may give E:A a go. My regular opponent is not for learning a new ruleset, so fear not NetEpic lovers, I still intend to fly the flag! Only now I'll have 2 games to play for the price of 1!
