 This is a pretty harsh review and after reading T5 I
 understand where
 he's coming from.  I *want* to like T5, but I find that
 it's almost
 painful to read because there are just too many charts and
 too many
 acronyms that the fun sort of filters out.

I'm with you Kurt.

IMO, T5 is the rpg equiv of the old super-ultracomplex (they even kept track of waterholes!) boardgame 'Campaign for North Africa' that SPI
published way back in the late-70's.
I remember reading, a ways back, that MM was a guy who "likes charts". I guess this bears that out.

p.s. I do regret not purchasing CNA. It's worth a bundle on eBay!
