Well, this turned out to be a nice discussion.

I have to agree with Evil though. There are a lot of lame games out
there and once you have tried one and it turned out to be a total f**k
up in means of rules etc, you don't really wanna spend more money that
you know are not refundable on another game unless you are sure that
the game is good.

Although, there are free trial games but they are often badly run and
don't give "the big picture" of the real game...

So... should I stick to Middle Earth and WWIV or is that too "sniky"?
