Podcast interview with Jon Tuffley of Ground Zero Games

[CADmonkey]

Here's a podcast interview with Jon Tuffley, the proprietor (and sole operator) of Ground Zero Games: Meeples & Miniatures – Episode 230 – Ground Zero Games

The interview begins at about 36 minutes in.

GZG published a number of sci-fi tabletop wargames rules in the 90's: Full Thrust (starship fleet action); Dirtside (6mm ground combat); and Stargrunt (25 mm ground combat), and sells miniatures for all of those game lines and others. I own copies of all of Tuffley's rules and have played a lot of Full Thrust, even after all these years FT is still my favourite sci-fi fleet action ruleset. And pdfs of their rules can be downloaded for free from the GZG website, there's a link on the podcast blog post.

As discussed in the podcast, GZG is a rare long-time survivor in the wargaming industry who --unlike other companies that have come and gone over the years-- haven't tried to become "the next GW" and burnt out as a result.
