Murphy's Rules-- a compendium of all of the Murphy's Rules cartoons that have appeared over the years lampooning bad game rules. This is a wonderful collection of cartoons, and it made me nostalgic for some older games, despite their flaws. In addition to the Murphy's Rules there are also rules for a Simple Wargame, and a realistic post-holocaust game called "Nuclear Winter." This is a good book, that will leave you laughing and warm. It reads quick, but is worth every penny. It gets an "A."

Style: 4 (Classy and well done)
Substance: 4 (Meaty)
