Eosin the Red
First Post
I have seen several comments on reviews lately. I did a few recently for Hero Games but thought that I would put this out for those of you in dire straits 
Cross-Posted from my Website [www.mabinogin.com]. I will also post my reviews on my website in addition to ENworld.
Reviews by Eosin
I am no scholar but I do have opinions and from time to time I like to let the world know what I think. This is a collection of my reviews of RPG material.
I do take requests to review as time permits but before you ask the following needs to be said up front so that there are no miscommunications.
1. I like fluff not rules, a book of prestige classes is unlikely to impress me much and unless the flavor text is outstanding the overall score is likely to be reflect my dislike of crunch. Some examples to illustrate - Geanavue, Magical Mideval Society: Western Europe, The Book of the Righteous, & The Witches Handbook would rank very high with me. On the other side, the Book of Vile Darkness & The Complete Anything would likely not interst me much.
2. I play d20 and Hero System games and that is what I will primarily review - if you have questions feel free to ask and I will get back with you.
3. It is pretty darn hard to earn a perfect score from me but equally hard for me to butcher a product. I can usually find something redeeming even in what I consider lousy products and I can also find ways that things could have been done better.
4. Ask before me before committing me to a review. Sometimes I am engaged in making a living, occasionally I am not interested in a product or a line, and finally it is not uncommon for me to find myself with too much RPG on my plate.
5. PDFs longer than a 100 pages wear out my eyes or my printer.
6. My reviews are unedited, much like my posts. This means there will be occasional typos and whacky sentence structure.
Other than that I think I am free game.
