The listing of command cards GMT here at the website has notation of number of cards at the bottom. Some of these are listed like 3/2. What does that mean? Is this a comparison with the original deck size or does this reference an optional increase deck size for Epic play?

The GMT cards entry page is still missing this part

DESIGNER NOTE
A deck of 90 Command cards is a lot of cards, but if you
want an open, freewheeling style game play, this is exactly
what the new 90 card Command deck will provide. However,
with a little deck modification, players may wish to
set up a more standard, compact deck of 75 Command
cards. Whichever deck set up you prefer, both have been
well tested and will work fine in conjunction with the deck
of Tactician cards

The number of cards in the brackets list the number of the new full 90 cards Command deck (first number) and the smaller compact deck of 75 Command cards (second number).


And the "full 90" cards deck is indeed the one, which will be used in the upcoming
Epic version too ;)

And still a clarification about the Tactician deck,
this deck is optional, you can play both new command decks (90 or 75 cards) with or without the tactician deck!

My dice are the hell!

I have a concern with this bigger deck.

There are several scenarios that allow for play of a scout card to get a victory banner for one side. With this bigger deck, these scout cards become diluted. Seems this will unsettle the balance in these scenarios.

Also, don't the Spanish replenish their guerrilla raid tokens based on play of scout cards? If so, that too would hurt their balance.
