Just registered and looking around. Wow! Lots of great threads.
Welcome aboard, Dan!
I just picked up a copy of Thunderbolt Apache Leader. I thank you but my wallet doesn't. ;)
Hurra ! Wellcome :)
Excellent that we now have a chance to chat with you here also.
i already talked to you about 'IOS and Andriod' on other forums... so let me add here that a 1:1 coversion of TAL for the PC would be great also and a day-1-purchase for me, in addition to my board game.
Hi Dan! What's cooking in your wargame kitchen? Feel free to post about it in the appropriate forums. It's what they are for!
Welcome Dan. Really glad to have you here.
Hi Dan and welcome.
Welcome!
Sweet! Welcome to Grogheads, DanVerssen. 8)
Welcome, Dan! Glad you found us.
Glad to see you here Dan!
I'm a huge fan of your games. Spent my last weekend off playing Hornet Leader.
Hope we see more of you around these parts.
Welcome to GrogHeads Dan!
I saw your post on another message board Dan- calling to look for game designers. I might have to send you an email about a couple of projects in the works - one is mine and the other I'm doing the artwork for. I'd be interested to know if you're looking for artists as well (print or computer). I've done work for Matrix games, Frank Hunter, MMP and now on this latest project for somebody. I'll shoot you an email and see if there'd be any interest in outsourcing some of your artwork to another person.
Thank you for the very warm welcome!
A few people asked about What's New... :)
Right now, the main project is Fleet Commander Nimitz. We're hoping to have that to the printer in the next couple months.
We have Modern Naval Battles Campaign Exapnsion at the printer, and it should arrive in about a week.
Rise of the Zombies is also at the printer and should be here in early January.
Thanks for dropping in, Dan. I'm a big fan of Modern Naval Battles. It's a great fast-paced game. Looking forward to the Campaign Expansion!
Thank you Mirth! We should be getting the MNB-Campaign games in shortly. Fingers-crossed. :)
In the case that anyone is looking for a social game, or something to be played on a casual gaming night, here a couple live play videos we shot for our Zombie game...

Nice, is that out yet?
Hello Dan, Welcome!
You are one of my favorite designers.
The Zombie game will arrive in January, but you can still pre-order through our web site at the pre-order price.
Thank you ABD!
GJK - We'd be happy to look at any game projects you might want us to take a look at.

PHANTOM LEADER - iPad!
Phantom Leader for the iPad has launched!
The iPad version features the full tabletop game ported to the iPad. The game takes care of the bookkeeping, die roll modifiers, sequence of play, and remembers all the Special Event effects for you!
Quotes from players...
"Instant purchase for me."
"Purchased it the second I saw it on the app store."
"The Leader series is a great match for the platform, and I gladly forked over $15 because there's simply nothing else like this in the App Store, and likely never will be unless DVG releases another one of their titles."
"I bought the game as soon as I found it, been waiting a while.
Only a quick play at lunch, got creamed. Can't wait to get some real time in on it."
"Bought it. Played two campaigns. Love it."
"Okay, so I bought it, and wow, this game has a lot going on. It's going to take some time to learn the rules, but I really like it so far. Definitely compelling, and worth the money."
"I've been having a ton of fun with this since I purchased it. (A lot more than Alien Frontier, for which I had such high hopes). And letting the game do all the book keeping is another great aspect to this version. Plus, like someone else said earlier, since it's predominantly solitaire, it translates perfectly to an iOS game. My squad feels as "alive" as ever."
As someone who played and loved the board game, the $14.99 price tag was no obstacle for me. I have played it once so far and I can tell you that the play value is there. I will easily play this app ten times in the next week and probably fifty times over the next six months. It is worth every penny to me.
This is a perfect game for a tablet and I hope more of the titles in the series get ported over.
I love the game and I'm having a blast playing it. Thanks to DVG!
