I don't mind at all your objection to the outcome of my review. I'm glad it works for you, and that you found it more enjoyable after you managed to figure out the rules. I believe I suggested that might be the case. I believe I also suggested that our playing of the actions might have been wrong, but the rules were totally opaque on the issue. Even after reading about the additional line of rules you managed to dredge out of the rulebook, I still believe that to be the case.

Frankly, there are a lot of good games out there, with well-written rules, and so there's no reason for me to waste time on a game with a trainwreck of a rulebook, and that's going to be what I suggest to other people too. Given that your opinion of Gangland is so very different, I'd highly suggest you write your own review; that's the beauty of the open review system here at RPGnet.

And, while I didn't mind your objection at all, I found the title of your response highly offensive. "This Review is 'unplayable'?" And the "review was a failure"? Give me a break. Try to learn that people with different opinions than yours aren't innately wrong.
