I don't quite understand why the HotA baiting is happening in this thread?
And what's with the same for necros? Was there any baiting about elves last time? We'll see who shows up more at this tournament. As far as I'm concerned, logisticians are stronger than necros on XL, especially so.
And HotA, which you could play by mutual agreement if you really wanted to, is becoming almost the primary version. More and more tournaments are like that, and not because many people specifically want to play HotA, but simply because the organizers want to push HotA. Soon we'll have to search for a tournament on SoD. And I don't like it.
