I got a brief look at the LC rules at Gencon, and decided not to get it. To
me, the inclusion of D20 rules wasn't what bothered me. I don't like D20 and
use it as little as possible, but I will concede that it does wonders to
contribute towards PEG's financial future. The reason I didn't get LC was
the material was organized badly and it was difficult to find what I was
looking for. The layout wasn't clear, the index was barely functional, but
what it all boiled down to was that I couldn't find what I was looking for.
So, no sale. It wasn't D20 that turned me off... my wife and I actually
enjoyed the demo game. It was layout and organization.
