its one of a few I think another is reaching to do too much at once, take the fact that they have a section called "what should mongoose do next" on their forums to give you a chance to request games or books on certain subjects, of course almost nothing listed here ever gets done even simple ones like the Traveller GM Screen which is in their grasp to do and has 2 pages of votes, not even a rep saying this could be worked out, yet then they release games like Fantasy Craft a game using spycraft rules (spycraft being top secret for those who have to use d20 rules) for Fantasy (Gee Isn't it easy enough to play a D20 Fantasy game with say DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS!?!?) Not to mention a myriad of products that I just have to wonder if anyone would really want but then when they have gem, (like Call to Arms,SST, or the Conan game) they slowly piss it away. for Chimera the Roleplaying Game, or some other crap, just lame
