Incidentally, my biggest problem with AC at the moment is the difference skill seems to make. I get the impression that if you're 'better' than your opponent (whether through experience, practice, or natural ability), you're more likely now to outplay him/her convincingly than simply 'win by a little'. I don't know if this is because accuracy is better rewarded, or armour-control plays a bigger part, or what. I just feel like while I can be destroying the opposition, when a better player than me joins, he destroys me. It used to be a lot more even.
