Warlord Games are extremely excited to announce that celebrated wargames writer and developer Roger Gerrish has recently signed a contract to join the Konflikt ’47 writing and development team.
A familiar face to all of us at Warlord Games, Roger has extensive experience in wargames development, having co-authored our recent Achtung Panzer! and Judge Dredd, also working closely with Andy Chambers on Blood Red Skies. In addition, he’s written a pair of Bolt Action campaign books, as well as the WWIII wargame Seven Days to the River Rhine, among many other projects!
Roger’s expertise in game design and familiarity with Warlord Games will be a huge asset to the team as they assemble the mechanics and background of the Konflikt rules and universe, and his breadth of experience working with both historical and science fiction settings will be invaluable for the Weird War!
Roger Gerrish
“Being a massive fan of alternate history and Weird World War II in particular, I was simply delighted to be invited to enter the world of Konflikt ‘47 as part of the writing and development team.
Ever since I read The Man in the High Castle so many years ago, I have been fascinated with the ideas of alternate history, specifically when related to World War Two and have subsequently gobbled up all the literature I can find on the subject.
When Andy Chambers asked me to join the writing and development team for the new edition of Konflikt ‘47 I could not say yes quick enough! Andy and I have collaborated together many times before and he knows I am a bit of a nerd when it comes to the strange, wonderful, and outlandish technology that might have been used had the war carried on. I was also particularly impressed at the calibre of the other team members I would be working with.“
Peter Gosling – Head of Marketing and K’47 Product Manager, Warlord Games
“Roger is someone we’ve worked with extensively in the past, and we’ve always been delighted with what he’s produced. Combined with his passion for the subject matter, he’s a natural choice to join the team, and I can’t wait to see what he brings to Konflikt.”
