Re: [RPG]: Mythic: Game Master Emulator, reviewed by Doc Halloween (3/5)

That said, i still find it frustrating sometimes, but it has enough points in its favor that I continue to play with it. In fact, the most success I have had with it is in tweaking the Yes/No table to use in solo wargaming situations, changing the Chaos Rank to an Aggressiveness statistic to give to specific commanders, along with a few rules additions on how to ask questions to get proper answers.
Would you write a review? I would like to read a review that does not sound like it is written by a salesman for the product.

NOTE: I'm not saying the author IS a salesman for the product, I'm saying the review reads like he was.
