Last Hussar,

I read your review and think you … oh, wait. No comments are to be posted here. Shucks. Nevermind.

:-D

Heck with it. Great review. I think you nailed it.

I agree it's a good review of a good, and potentially very good, game. Except that I would have given it 5/10 for clarity, and only because I'm a generous person.

I read the rules several times before playing it, and I was out at sea on some key issues. Thankfully, my opponent had some experience with TW&T, so it all went very well. Had he been just as inexperienced, or had either of us been the eponymous TW&T, it wouldn't have.

It's certainly helpful if the authors of rules are available for answering questions. But it's even more helpful if rules are written in such a way that their assistance isn't necessary in the first place.

The only bit that threw me was the 'units get three dice' idea. If you replace that with 'Initiative points' it all clicked for me.
