Glad to review these and the 'Yes/No/Maybe' summation is a nice change of format and a bit punchier in style. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I not only like those summaries, I also like the broken down content in smaller sections. In the past, my #1 criticism of your (otherwise very good) articles was that it was often a big uniform block of text without any separate sections or structure. Often there would be some implied structure (like a few paragraphs on the physical aspect of a book) but it was indistinguishable from the rest at first glance. Thanks again!

I will bear that it mind. I do have a structure to my reviews and yes, my paragraphs can be lengthy. That though often comes from longer books. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Incendiary Pig 5 Report post Posted December 5 Thanks for the review, Pookie. It is quite a scary prospect to put one’s material in front of an audience, especially one as well-versed as the Runequest community. As the author of Tales of the Sun County Militia: Sandheart Volume 1 your review will help me in shaping Volume 2, which is on its way. I also wanted to congratulate all the other authors for being brave and showcasing their excellent work. I hope others follow suit. Best wishes Jon 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
