Repetition
Another day, another CPOMB whine how refreshing.
I think it's interesting to note that folks have no issue with horrible skill combos that make scoring easy but have a real hard on for hating bash skills. No-one ever seems to complain about Pro Elves being awesome (possibly because folks like picking up casualties against them) or even Dwarves any more (nah, Block Tackle and Strength access isn't scary enough anymore) or Orcs (4 St4, 4 block, all av9).
Love how folks seem to get obsessed over the same things, wah Wood Elves, Wah Amazons, Wah CPOMB.
It's also interesting that the same folk aren't calling to make Halflings or Goblins better. If you're complaining that you've got it hard cause of CPOMB try being a gobbo.
It's the web though so no-one's gonna change and it's human nature so they're gonna focus on the negative but damn it's bugging the (expletive deleted. ;P) out of me.
(NB. The irony of me whining about whining is not lost on me ;P)

I think you'll find I dislike Zons as much as C-POMB.
The reason people whine more about C-POMB than other power combo's is because it is more prevalent, (arguably) most powerful (according to the sprint for example) but most likely because it doesn't just effect this game you play them (unlike all other combos) the side effects can last for several.
I believe I did join debates to make gob's and flings better.
Maybe the reason the issue is raised so often is because it effects so many people so often?

People don't absolutely complain about overpowered scoring mechanics. Everytime I ever see a dedicated one turn scorer the whining comes out in droves.
The reason people hate cpomb so much is because A.) They love their pixels too much, or B.) Whenever you do lose to it, it is a helpless and boring game. B was the reason Khemri, Ogre, and DP got nerfed into the ground from a bashy, casualty causing sense.
