This is a big plus. You can focus on the tactics and not get bogged in rules nuances. You can play these alone without a burdening effort or you can play against others; the experience is there. I am still discovering nuances and new aspects of the game, they keep drawing me back and further into the system. Good job to AP and the designers of the system and scenarios. I'm glad I stuck with it.
This is what hooked me on PG, the fact that you can really master the rules for the most part and play out good-sized encounters, the fact that the game does indeed coax tactics out of you as you get better, and the fact that it really seems to cover a solid breadth of possibilities in 16 pages. The solo-ability of the game was just icing on the cake.
