[QUOTE="jasamcarl, post: 1240702, member: 1251"] By 'all accounts' i'm referring to the fact that, after reading both good and bad judgements of the books and putting them into context, the political-scale mechanics seem sloppy. Some examples can be found in this thread actually. It seems that beyond the initial 'wow' factor, those who have actually dug into the rules have come back to say that they are not particularly good. This doesn't cover the entire book, mind you, just kingdom-managment, which is the only point of comparison with Fields of Blood. Now, going on from there, there really are no decent, comprehensive set of crunchy kingdom-managment rules on the market today, so its rational for me to place my hopes in the product whose avowed goal is to do provide such rules. Something is better than nothing. It may very well suck, but it has no real competition in what it does. [/QUOTE]
