[QUOTE="Dausuul, post: 4135010, member: 58197"] *shrug* This is one of those things where the designers have to ask: #1: How many people want killable gods versus how many people want unkillable gods? #2: Which house-rule is harder to implement: Killable gods in a system where they are unkillable by default, or unkillable gods in a system where they are killable by default? I don't know for certain what the answer to #1 is, but anecdotal evidence based on this thread suggests that the majority want killable (if extremely hard to kill) gods. The answer to #2 is that it's far easier to implement a house-rule changing killable gods to unkillable gods than to go the other way. If gods are killable by default, all you have to do is say, "Gods are unkillable. Deal widdit." If gods are unkillable by default, then you have to figure out what stats they ought to have, what the impact of a god's death would be, et cetera. So, I rather suspect gods will remain killable in future editions. [/QUOTE]
