[QUOTE="Crazy Jerome, post: 5850085, member: 54877"] I'd rather rename "epic" tier than do that. I'd like the game to also support a more epic fantasy style organically--from level 1, day 1, all the way to the top. Because the very last thing I want to do is play Cugel the Clever up to the epic tier, and then suddenly start playing Lord of the Rings. :D Rules good enough to support armies at 20th level are good enough to support armies at 1st. If they aren't, there is something wrong with the rules that being 20th level is masking. It may be true that we can get by with such rules, but I'd rather have good rules and not need to get by. Moreover, there is a place for "epic" in the "local scale". The realms of myth are full of it. Even LotR is more about such things than armies for most of the story--the armies are a backdrop.
