Re: [HoE] Hell on Earth & Car Wars

Roadwarriors was pretty boring in my opinion.

One thing I dislike about Hell on Earth, is that it seems like you guys just
throw stuff in, not for any reason, but just so the game can have it. The
same goes for Deadlands to some degree. If its an idea that has been used
before, you guys seem to toss it in anyway.

Its cool in a way, but not cool in another.

But still, both games are better than the majority of "kludge" work out
there.
