Just as a data-point, one of the reasons I have avoided buying DS is
I am extremely happy with the SGII rules, and that comment at the
beginning put me off just enough to be able to not buy them.

wouldn't be a big deal except my regular wargamers turned into MTG
players in an attempt to attract younger players.
