No no you misunderstood me or perhaps I misunderstood someone else down the line, a 2nd hero is fine, and is well defined in the rules, I am speaking of 2nd factions. Too me it looked like Eras was not asking about a 2nd hero, but a whole 2nd independent faction. And again, I never once thought of Eras cheating on that, or even using it to his advantage, I was simply saying, if he gets a 2nd Faction, I want one too, but unfortunately ill cheat with mine, whether I want to or not. Like he said, im too competitive not too.
As far as PDF controlling, I was saying "I" had to be the guy, I was just offering my time to do it seeing as I have much more then the rest of you combined. If hale or someone else wants to do it, by all means. My whole argument was simply there is no reason to have people control both sides of a battle, we have players here willing to step up and command it.
And I do understand what your saying about having as little GM involvement as possible hale, but this is for all intents and purposes a pen & paper RPG, in which a GM is necessary. And lets face it, most of the issues come from math miscalculations and over-looking parts of the rules, which are easily pointed out by any other player and can 90% of the time be fixed without a GM ever needing to be involved. So id say its more of an informal thing, but yes hale, you still have to be GM, basically just the higher power to handle any rule misunderstandings. Even with my extended library of D&D books, you still need a dungeon master to play D&D, same holds true here.
