just to throw in my 2 cents (although i am not yet playing fantasy),would it not make a tournament more exciting and alot more variety in army builds by having it capped at 2000.
by having the larger points limit you kind of know that the supa uber units will be included,in fact you would build your list to counter act or use your own super uber units.
which in its own merit can be an awesome style game

but at the lower point limit, you can't be sure what your opponent will take.
will they take extra core units,or for go that for a smaller army with more rare and dangerous units. You yourself have to make thouse same decisions on your own build. do you risk putting all your Penny's (points) in one basket or play it a little more spread out amongst all your units.
and would it not make a game a little quicker allow for a couple of more rounds in the tournament?
