One of my all-time pet peeves in gaming, ever since playing my very first Eurogame, has to be the recieved wisdom that short rules make a game easy to lean. Although most often proferred by Eurogamers this can be proved false for almost any genre of game, as I've gone to some lengths to argue over at BGN this week.
I have no idea how Michael writes those long introductions to his Gameshark pieces. By the time I'm done writing an article I've usually said all that I want to say. So this is all you're getting by way of a preface. Sorry.
