Ideally, the rules should be so simple and intuitive that their use does not disrupt the flow of the game. HW comes pretty close to this. HQ sounds as if it may come even closer. But they're so different from other systems that it takes a while to get your head around them and see just how apparently complex things can be done in a simple and elegant way.
