Discussions, post-mortems, analysis, inflated egos, and all that jazz.

A question for all players: Why don't hardcore HotA players play Shades of Darkness at all, while hardcore SoD players (or whatever you call yourselves) play with SoD?

That's a strange question. I'm a "hardcore HotA player" and I don't play SoD at all.
I just don't like many of the things that are present in SoD, but have been fixed or reworked in HotA.
