Mike Donais: Still not banning miniatures

Mike Donais posted this:
As Mons said, there are no minis being considered for banning at this time.

I didn't address this recently because I didn't even consider it an issue.

We don't like to ban stuff and we have stated that and made it clear by banning only 1 mini ever. Normally the first couple sets of a game are much more unbalanced than ours and they need to ban things. We playtested this game a ton before the first mini was printed (and more importantly we got lucky) and ended up with a balanced sets of minis. As time goes on we can't help but get better at it.

We can address things like the Orc Champion or Frenzied Berserker by printing Justice Archon or similar models.

Obviously something could change and the World Championships could demonstrate a warband that is so super duper uber amazing that it beats every other warband and we have to change our minds. I doubt anyone expects that though. (This thread)
