I spent a lot of time this year in what one might generously term “interesting circumstances”. One of the outcomes of that was a game I had in the back of my mind for years. NATO Air Commander is the first game I have ever designed and I’m particularly humbled …
It is 0145 and the Ranger platoon commander has been woken up and assigned a mission against the godless communists invading Puerto Oro from the north. All I’d wanted was a mission…and for my sins, they gave me one. It was “anti-personnel ambush” just south of a small village that …
I have just published The Battle for Berlin: 1985, my newest entry in the Tales of World War III: 1985 series. I am very proud of this work and I think it represents my best effort so far. The book is about a Special Deployment Commando team in West Berlin during …

Quick post today. The scenario depicted in my latest book, “Storm Scarred Banner” was based off a game created in 1983 by legendary designer Charles T. Kamps. For a look at how the game played out, you can read my blog post here over on my game blog. One thing …
Since my last book, “Storm Scarred Banner” was released a couple of weeks ago, I’ve been busy with a game design project. Although I can’t say too much about it at this point, I can tell you that it looks at the large-scale events in the book series from a …
A week ago, I uploaded my latest book, “A Storm Scarred Banner” to the Amazon Kindle Store. Since then it has taken off along with the rest of the books in the “Tales of World War III: 1985” series. The title comes from the lyrics to the Norwegian national anthem, …
