1. The Scorpion variant is good, BUT: if we're talking about XL+U templates, isn't there a lack of castles where you can build a GM from scratch? 2. If we're talking about balance in the game, why repeat old mistakes? A balance has already been created in Warlord Tactics (WT), it has everything, but apparently there aren't enough players who need it. That's why they want to implement their own ideas in the Conflux of Souls (SOD), so they can play like in WT, but with more participants. I personally am against rebuilding the GM.
