I fully agree with Velusion. "Game Ender" spells ruin the fun of a game. You can argue till the end of time about whether it should be able to be dispelled or what the proper cost is. Really none of it matters though because being in the "Dispel this or lose the game" position is always massively un-fun and disappointing. Why would anyone want to play a game when faced with a situation like that?
Thanks Ironhawk.

I guess I'll say my final piece about AN:

1. It is much, much more powerful than most other 9th level spells (hence unbalanced).
2. It scales badly depending on game size.
3. Because it is so powerful it can overshadow everything else often resulting in unfun conclusions to games.
