Um, mr Laffayette, I so like your reviews but boy is your writing sloppy!!
In this one in particular you don't even explain what kind of dice the system uses- I take it to be d6s because by your descriptions it sounds like the Beer engine (the GM gives a TN in dice and you have to roll under your Skill). If I didn't know the Beer engine, though, what do you think I'd have made out of this:

The difficulty of the action determines the target number that the score must succeed for success; from two dice for routine tests, to five dice for nearly impossible tests.

The score must succeed for success? You must mean "the score must not exceed for success". Or maybe something entirely different?
Then there's the last paragraph before your "overall rating" conclusion, that stops in mid sentence. And other stuff interspersed through the text like this:

Where you obviously started to say it one way, then decided to say it another, then left bits of both ways in the phrase and forgot to come back and check it afterwards.
I hate to be the one to bitch about it and maybe all those are small and inconsequential mistakes, but if you put them all together your review starts to look like a jumbled mess and it's a bit unfair to the games too.
In any case, before you take out the flamethrower you should know I'm probably more aware of all that because I recently read many of your reviews, by clicking on the little number on the sidebar. I did say I like them. Please do something about the writing, yes?
