This morning I received some of the worst news I have ever had, I will be stepping away from social media and the UK Defence Journal for a few days. The team will continue but please don't be alarmed at a drop or slowdown in output.

Playtesting Take That Island, our entry level maritime analogue game with a team of gamers and designers. This is a fantastic team effort to help more people get into maritime wargaming.

Peter Perla, the pioneer of professional #wargaming, passed away last night. Peter indelibly shaped the wargaming profession - from writing the seminal book on wargaming to leading the field for decades. He will be terribly missed - both as a colleague, mentor, and friend.
