Hah! 12v12 wasn't "epic" when I was playing Air Warrior online in 1988 when we managed a lot more than that. It surely isn't epic 25 years later.Let me tell you about the battle of 6VDT my lad...

An epic is a poetic form, the word doesn't actually mean a large or massive fight. For instance the Epic of Gilgamesh is a Hero's Journey with no large battles central to the main narrative.
