'Mogg' is Jacob Rees-Mogg, the current leader of the House of Commons (roughly the equivalent of Congress) and a member of the Conservative Party (roughly the equivalent of our Republicans) and a big supporter of Brexit, the UK withdrawal from the European Union, for any mystified Americans.

JRM is the quintessential parody of an Englishman. He also has an astounding grasp of English & History, and is as cool as a cucumber. Cool as in cool, not cool as in cool. I assume the Apocalypse was staying in the EU for so long?

Any game about Brexit that “explores the ramifications of mob rule democracy, the frailty of hope, the banality of evil” has to be good. I bought it.

Mob rule is not a Brexit thing, it's a socialist thing. And if I get slammed for a political point, that's also a socialist thing. I may buy it in due course to have a peruse. ( No preview on drive thru so shoves it down the list!)

Sure. Genuine question/request "Not sure how to discuss an RPG about politics that has a potentially biased slant?"

I think we should have a vote on whether mob rule is a Brexit thing, a socialist thing or neither. Happily, there’s a voting mechanic in the game itself

(and, as an added side benefit, a preview for you, John).
