While I don't consider limiting the legendary surge/power "nerfing", (for the reasons earlier posted), I do acknowledge that it is problematic to adjust the rules mid campaign. Each group needs to make the changes that work best for them.
I am really enjoying this thread and your other one about the failed AP, and while I don't agree with everything, I am finding a large amount of very useful advice on your threads.
Thanks for taking the time for posting your thoughts.
