[QUOTE="Shaneus, post: 148248, member: 204"] Mmm... I'd kinda disagree with you in that regard. The rules in the majority of WMS titles feel a lot more rounded and polished than the majority of Stern games (unless they're given 50 million revisions, in which case they mistake "solid rules" for "overcomplicated"). Obviously there are exceptions, but I think RBION set a bad precedent for just how tricky Stern games should be in terms of depth. I actually kinda liked Metallica before it got super complicated and would've been happy if the ruleset was just rounded out and cleaned up... and it still seems okay from what I've read, but AC/DC is an example of where it was taken too far IMO. Unless you're talking about how tables are laid out etc., in which case I do kind of agree with you. That's what happens when your main designers continually ape from WMS tables (and I'm not talking Steve Ritchie ;) ). [/QUOTE]
