It has about my favorite combat system evar.

Emily: Okay, I'm facing a deadly warlock. (rolls dreidel)

Graham: (shouting out emotion) Ambivalence!

Emily: I strike you with my strikey metal thing! Oh, no, but maybe I should stab you--no, but what about that dagger, I've been meaning to use my dagger more. Or should I shoot you with my short bow?

Graham: Gimel! The warlock tripped on a shoelace & slammed itself on your dagger. Take its gold!

hee : )

But Graham, I gave it a PERFECT 50 score!

Also, yes, Emily points out what I glossed over in my review (because I had a funny joke about jewish kids). That would be most amusing to play. :)

Wonder if I should make this a standard game before my D&D sessions (but only 5-10 minutes), could reduce the chance of anyone drawing out the more doubious parts of that system :D

Absolutely a must read! (And that combat system could perhaps serve as a foundation for something intresting)

Bloody hell. I write the worst game ever and I get this response.

Emily, that's bloody brilliant.

Joshua, your review is about the best I could have hoped for. I'm also quietly amused that I got a greater score than Brave New Economy. (Which I'm reviewing too).

Rune, I advise you very strongly not to play this game, but if you must, then tell me about it.
