Yeah, but it should not be so hopeless -everything- is lost. Down to the last desperate roll of the dice is one thing. Down to a (for those who can get the D&D reference) natural 20 to succeed is almost as bad, if not worse, than the way Myth III did do things.
Myth is about valiant but relatively mundane individuals overcoming great odds.
Not superheroes...and HGK's story would produce too much of Connacht=Superhero feel for my taste, if I read it right. But, that's one person's opinion.
