My guess is that it's the beginning of the end for the 5th cols. Germany in particular has very strict laws regarding the depiction of Nazis. And while they aren't Nazis, it is obvious that they are meant to reflect them. The german names are a big clue, as is the history. I wouldn't be suprised if this would lead to them being either phased out or an ideology change less problematic for Cryptic.

When do blasters become all-powerful? I started my first blaster (Penny Pretty on Infinity) and I'm up to level 10. Have to say I'm not so impressed so far. I can AOE a group of 8-10 even con minions and bring them all down to about 1/4 of their health but that just leaves a group of wounded minions running after me. My usual MO is:

Build up
Fireball
Pick off stragglers as I run backwards down the street and hope I don't get held.

I have energy as a secondary, so if there is one boss I can usually keep him on his butt using kb long enough to kill him. If there are 2 bosses I'm dead. if I get held and the pack of minions catch me I'm dead. If I run backwards into another group and aggro them I'm dead. When exactly do I get to be overpowered?
