Executor:
Look at the Ashdod thread in main section. Hinnom was the bad guy because it got a lot of attention early on. So devs did read it and reacted. But then people tried Ashdod and took a better look and noticed how uber it is. There is not much ranting about it now because it is banned in 90% of MA games [and MA games are really uncommon recently]. You can ask some vets
Anyway, I am in, but there are few nations that I don't want to play, so if I roll one of them, I will have to step out.
