About Me

My photo
The horrible manifestation of a diseased mind, symptomatic of years of overexposure to strategy games, comics (YOU MEAN GRAPHIC NOVELS), and internet joviality. Symptoms occur irregularly and are treatable with sunshine and fresh air.

Things that I would like to make

Another set of little half-ideas for games/things. None of which will actually happen:

1) A parliamentary politics board/card game. It allows for: 1) non-zero sum player interaction, 2) Power differentials which still allow for weaker players to influence the course of the game (to make a government, you need 50%, so you can have dominant parties beholden to smaller ones), 3) Dynamic rules! 4) Meta-games which aren't "gang up on the leader"

2) Some sort of a counterinsurgency war game. I know there's a GWOT game out by GMT, but it's not quite what I'm looking for... you'd have to do it as a computer game, or have some really nifty ways of handing assymetric information, as well as a way to overcome the "HA HA" problem.

3) A fun little 3/4-player wargame set during/after the death of Jan Huss. It's at a great period in time, the early part of the gunpowder era, and you have such great factions!

4) A thorough analysis of the evolution of empire from the economic perspective.

5) Magic button which accomplishes thesis work and/or gives me infinite time to sleeeeeep

6) MORE BLOG POSTS! THE POSTS MUST FLOW!
