Exodus
I am unable to finish this scenario because the combat difficulty is
beyond my ability. I lack the intimate knowledge of the combat mechanics
and engine to make proper decisions against some ridiculous monsters. Through
beta-testing I am aware of the depth of story, and award points solely on
the design and story. This scenario is unplayable except by a few tactitians,
without resorting to cheating through re-loads, level editing, or scenario
editing.

Magus of Cattalon
I found this to be a very frustrating scenario, but I WANTED to play
it and finish it. It was clear what the progression should be, and side adventures
were frequently available. This is my favorite of Smoo's adventures and I
found it very enjoyable. Some minor tech-glitches did lift me out of the
reverie, but weren't enough to frustrate me.

Redwall: Prologue
This scenario is well written, descriptive,
and visually appealing. I found it boring as hell because of complete lack
of knowledge of the book series upon which it is based. I don't want to read
the books, so it failed on that level. I didn't find myself willing to finish
it, but that is a failure of the audience, not the author.
