Day 21 - Saturday

I never appreciated Saturdays until I really got down to work.

Well, I took the trouble to make sure I slept late on Friday night, which would most likely disrupt my sleeping schedule.

Anyway, today went by pretty uneventful. Kwang woke me up this afternoon with a phone call, alerting me to check out the Axis and Allies collectible miniatures game.

Honestly I've never had any interest in miniature games, or any figurines, as my desk is cluttered enough. I've seen a couple of A&A games being played at game conventions, but that was all I know about it.

After reading the rules manual, and being honest again, I didn't like it.

I never liked the idea of 'inbuilt' rules, meaning the rules of a game that you need to know before being able to play the game. For our game, I spent about ten minutes trying to explain the rules to a volunteer playtester. Too long. It should be two minutes.

Kwang agreed me on this. And now, after feature adding... it's feature-slashing time.
