Reply To: Is it time for some more critical analysis of rule sets

I’m really not sure why we are surprised by the lack of proof reading and playtesting on SPQR.  Warlord have previous form with products like Cruel Seas being notoriously full of errors and Black Powder version 2 being little more than version 1 with just half a page of amendments. But we still buy their stuff.  What’s their incentive to change when we just keep throwing cash at them despite huge quality issues. Really, who is playing Cruel Seas anymore?  The rules were so full of holes that a TEN PAGE errata was issued within a week of publication.  For Warlord, half baked rule sets are just the least important part of flogging figures. It’s a ahame as the figures rapidly become redundant as the rules are so simplistic and lacking in replay value.  But we still keep buying them.
