  Game Developer

  I'm presenting developing the third game in Revolution Games' American Civil War series: "Longstreet Attacks: The Second Day at Gettysburg." It should be published in 4Q17. It is a historically accurate rendition of the second day of fighting at Gettysburg and focuses on the battle between Longstreet and the Union general Dan Sickles. Its designer is Hermann Luttmann and its artists are Rick Barber, Charles Kibler and Mark Mahaffey. It uses the "Blind Sword" game system.

  Tiny Battle Publishing

  Jan 2015 - now

  I developed the zombie war game "Dead Reckoning " for Tiny Battle Publishing. Its designer was Hermann Luttmann and its artist was Tim Allen. The game was published in 2016. I also developed Tiny Battle's best selling game: "Invaders from Dimension X!" and their first boxed game, which has just been released (June 2019), "The Devil's To Pay: The First Day at Gettysburg." I designed a science fiction board game for Tiny Battle Publishing called "Space Vermin from Beyond." It's a tongue-in-cheek take-off of a 1950's grade-B movie. It's also a solitaire game and the second in "Tiny Battles" best selling "Invaders" series. Its developer was Hermann Luttmann and its artist was Tim Allen.

  Flying Pig Games LLC

  Jan 2016 - now

  Game Developer

  I developed the issue board games for the magazine "Yaah!" volume #8 and Yaah! #10 for "Flying Pig Games." The first game was titled "Race to the Sea - 1914" and the second "Steamroller - Tannenburg 1914." Hermann Luttmann was the designer of both games and Tim Allen was the artist. Our newest project is "Crowbar! The Rangers at Pointe du Hoc," which will be published along with its companion game Vorwarts! in March 2019. This project was fully funded via Kickstarter in under 5 hours, which is a record, I believe, for "Flying Pig Games." I'm developing both games and Hermann Luttmann is designing them. Show less
