Full stop.

Cohen, the Tuidjy misses little. This is exactly
my point. You had a bad experience with the VQ,
and you called for a nerf. Now you are having a
bad day with a non-nerfed VQ against the
Allfather, and you are calling for another nerf.
This is a slippery slope.
I was against nerfing the VQ. Not because it was
not too cheap for its power, but because the land
at the end of the nerf road is a desolate one.
Yes, the Allfather is one of the best pretenders.
He is also one of the most expensive. He has one
major weakness. He is missing an eye, and Vanheim
has a horrible time fixing that. GoH, chalice,
etc... are very hard for Vanheim to get without
help. Heartbinding an arco priestess is the only
way I have managed it.
And of course, if you are unlucky enough to lose
the other eye, and it happens, you are left with
an extremely expensive, totally useless gimp.
I do not think the Vampire Queen was that much
out of balance. I do not think that the
Allfather is out of balance at all. I think that
ninety percent of those whining for nerfs are
people who cannot accept that the reason for
their losses is their lack of skill.
I _know_ that nerfing the Allfather will, sooner
or later end up in a whine for the nerfing of
the Ghost King, Nataraja, or Carrior Dragon.
Hell, I like the Naga and the Prince of Death
a lot, so they may come under the knife as well.
We are playing a game about Gods and Heroes.
If you want to play a game about national troops
duking it out, I will probably love to join.
But stop trying to impose your vision of what the
game should be on the rest of us.
House rules suck, but this game is great enough to
survive them. No game can survive a nerffest.
