About

I’ve been an avid tabletop wargamer since I was 13.

My first game designed so far is Ancients D6.  It took 3 rewrites to get it into a form I was happy with.  The design taught me a lot about rule writing.

I  worked with Aaron Bell on a Vassal version of Lost Battles/Strategos by Phil Sabin.  Since then, another member of the group has taken up the reins and is currently making a new and improved version of Lost Battles VASSAL module.

I now am also working through my piles of unpainted lead and plastic (The Pledge).  I am also limiting my spending to stuff found on thrift sites (ebay) and small items to round out projects (Year of Frugal Gaming).  The quest to finish  continues today.

  1. Dear John,

    A friend has passed on to me some napoloenic troop diagram templates by yourself. I was wondering if I could use and modify these for inclusion as illustrations for my rules at my website above and for later publication?
