Will players wish they could fit two Raiders in under the cap? Or will a 300 point swarm still beat a Huge ship list? I really think this is the million dollar question.
Did 5 Epic points just become a cap?

Who cares about 300pt Epic?
The real fun is Team Epic, at 400pts (also, note: in Team Epic, each player on the team can field a Raider or a Corvette, if so desired). I've played in Team Epic tournaments, and I've played against Double Raider lists, Single Raider/Cr90 lists, and sixteen TIE Swarms (and lots of stuff inbetween). It's all great fun!
I agree it's all great fun. Team Epic? Moar funner!
But my key question is this: will bringing Huge ships to an Epic match now be an advantage, in a competitive sense?

In my opinion--and I've played over twenty games of Team Epic and have won two Team Epic tournaments--is that huge ships have always been advantageous in Team Epic. I can't speak to 300pt "standard" Epic, but in Team Epic I believe that having a huge ship or two is better than not having one. You just have to know how to build it and fly it, which takes a good long while to figure out (but is very rewarding toying around with).
