C.J. Carella (yes, that C.J. Carella) provides a foreword calling out what he liked about the game (and what he stole from it for what would eventually become Unisystem). Read the foreword via the full-size preview on DriveThruRPG (I've provided a link to the product listing below).
It certainly isn't a game for everybody, but if you like things such as different weapons being treated differently in combat and a good, original, magic system (which I personally find the lack of to be THE biggest weak point in modern fantasy RPGs), then you might want to give Glory Road Roleplay a look.
*I'm aware that it's cool to hate on verisimilitude now in certain circles, but I still like game design in pursuit of the appearance of realism every now and again.
