just an FYI. Seems like a reasonable review, all told.

Once again SAs are locked away in the basement of a review.  

Having said that, I do think the reviewer calls it as he sees it and his comments don't seem too far off-base.  Given I care less about art now than I did 10 years ago, I mean, I don't get to play with the art do I?

A little harsh on the art (I think the TRoS art is pretty damned good, with some glaring exceptions) but overall a very good and very solid review. His phrasing was a bit less than respectful at a few points, but the points made were mostly spot on.

Yeah, for someone who is so concerned about art, he sure got the cover wrong.

Not that i'm questioning the rest of the review; it's pretty good and fairly solid.

And again, SA's get short shrift.

It's the first TROS review I've mostly agreed with.  It'd make me buy it if I already hadn't.

Overall a very, very fair review.  The controversial ones sell more, though...

Ha.

Yeah, well done.

I make it a point never to respond to either critics or fans (a good piece of advice given to me years ago).  What's printed is what's printed.  So don't take it personally if I leave your points unanswered or don't respond to your thanks.

However, I will say I'm glad to know you guys are keeping an eye out.  :)
