You should know, Fell.  There's got to be quite a bit of that where you work.

So when they beef something up like this, do they just errata up the point cost of all the previous figs with that power?  Or are they just suddenly much better?  Or are they all now retired?

While I haven't had extensive experience rollplaying, I agree very much with the article, 42!  I'm currently playing a fighter, which if I just played for the game aspects I imagine would be extremely boring.  But I've given him an extensive set of goals that make it really fun.  We're even playing a series of  encounter-heavy modules, and I still find that I'm having fun, all because of the background and goals I decided to give the character.
