Saipan 1944

[J6A]

"Jay is not rating his own creations here. He is rating how good a job the development crew at APL did with his creations. He has commented (mainly at consimworld) on how his scenarios and special rules were changed to meet Avalanche's perceived requirements. Thus his ratings actually have additional value, as do Ottavio's and Murray's, as they are rating the final product, and not their version of the product."

I don't buy this explanation for a second. I wouldn't buy if Jay said it. Nihon Silk is not "based on a novel by Jay Townsend", its "modifications to a novel by Jay Townsend." If, indeed, he was rating it that way, I find it hard to believe that he would think that AP's developers did a perfect or near perfect job on every scenario.
