RE: How PG continues to grow on me.
PG just seems to have hit the sweet spot between complexity and simplicity. A good choice of scale, too.
The only other series that is a rival for my gaming heart is the Grand Tactical Series by MMP, which uses chit-draw. But I guarantee I won't be playing it as often or as much, because the ruleset is a full step of complexity above PG. Still playable, but even experienced players always seem to have to keep the rulebook at their elbow. Getting comfortable with the games is a real commitment. Playing them when you don't know the system really well takes forever, and 2 of the 3 are monsters to boot.
