The best example of a Lite version that almost tanks a good game is the Lone Wolf version of Mage Knight Dungeons. The LW version had a lame map, two random heroes who may not really be suitable for solo play and a vauge ule book that is written three different ways to scale up the complexity. The full game that's played with a Hero Team, room tiles instead of cards, and with the FAQ is a blast.So my advice to Sherlock's friend is to simply wait until he can peruse the real deal and then make his judgement. Frankly, if I had to pay Aussie prices for games, I'd problay take up fencing and theater instead.</blockquote>
