would give Henry's Hoard its own category (à la JSW128 and JSW64).
The same goes for JSW II. It just doesn't feel right to shoehorn
these game-engines into the JSW48 category.
But since there aren't currently loads of games based on the JSW II
and HH game-engines, they remain in "Other Games of MM/JSW Interest"
for now.
