Why not put "Intended for Immature Gamers" on there? That seems to cover all
bases. :>

In actuality, I wouldn't worry about it. There are much more racy and
questionable things that are passed off in bookstores nowadays, sans warning
label.

Or, it occurs to me that you might want to put something like "Not intended
for novice gamers" on there. That effectively eliminates everyone under age
13, and should cover your "badass", so to speak.
