Here is my thought on Epics.
How many characters are really deserving of an Epic piece? This was discussed going into the second Epic set and thus why it is only six characters. I should not have to look an Epic character up on Wookiepedia to know who it is.
So of the list posted,
Jango, Han, Obi, maybe Kyle.
Personally I think you have to have screen time to be an Epic, but that is just me.
Since it is being talked about for Gencon 14 I really think we are already too late to get a set list, stats, playtesting and sent to the printer. We are already struggling to playtest the main and subset anyway. That is why we are cutting the number of characters. Adding Epics sort of is going in the wrong direction IMO.
I know there are fanboys for every character if you asked them the character they hold near and dear to their heart would have and Epic version. Being brutally honest I think this project would be a waste of time.
This post is what is the step in the wrong direction. It is discouraging to others. The very first post in this thread from Scott said that this would be an online only project and stated that it was financially unfeasible. If its a PDF format then there should be no reason we cant explore this and make whoever we want (screen time or not).
If you don't like it, then don't play it or participate. Its wrong to come on here and tell people that its a waste of their time to explore formats they enjoy in a game that is nothing more than a hobby.
