[QUOTE="Jraynack, post: 2709322, member: 13894"] Your exactly right - that is really why I loved the Dark Sun setting - when a character reached 15th level, you were someone not to take likely. If you were 40th level, you could indeed raise an entire nation of the dead to lead or raze a city and then reanimate them. Though I didn't mind the epic rules (I DMed a few epic characters), I have heard overall that many were disatisfied - I think my APG partner, Cameron, was as well. To tell you the truth - I think WoTC was traveling in unknown waters and pulled some punches when creating the book. I remember the old Dungeon and Dragons gold box set (Immortals) where characters could actually become an immortal and possibly a demigod. The point being is that you shouldn't have to wait until your 100th level to be able to raise a nation of dead - 30th, 40th or even 50th (max) maybe. Your right, the epic rules should be epic and make your character feel that way - but a good campaign can also make you feel that way when your 20th or 25th as well. Thanks for the comment - we will see what we can do in a future Poor Gamer's Almanac. [/QUOTE]
