Coincidence: I also read that guy's blog when looking for info on various wargames and I too agree with his assessment.
I think Last Battle was advertised in all the wrong ways, it should never have been presented as a wargame in itself and should have more explicitly stated that it was a supplement for Twilight: 2000.
I think then it might not have given the wrong impression to the gaming crowd* and might not have got the negative reviews it did.
* I know when I first saw it for sale, everyone who was into T2k thought it was a T2k themed wargame, myself included. We all pretty much ignored itas nto being RPG related. Only years latter did I see the error of my ways and I got a second-hand copy.
