IMHO, epic needs to be +6, or else you've just allowed GMW to do what it's always done, vis-a-vis creatures with "epic" DR: Bypass considerations of DR entirely.

Think of Adamantine as possessing two extraordinary qualities. One is the ability to retain an incredibly sharp edge (ignoring hardness of less than 20), the other bieng incredible hardness itself. Don't try to associate the two.

The problem is, Adamantine ignores 20 points of hardness. Adamantine has 20 points of hardness.
Adamantine cuts through adamantine like butter.

Doesn't it say less than 20 (meaning 19 and below) and has no effect on items with hardness of 20 or above?
