Guides and playthroughs of wonderfully complex games by the likes of MMP Gamers, Matrix/Slitherine, Paradox, Vuca Simulations and GMT Games.

I've been a keen wargamer since 1974. Served in the Territorial Army. Worked as a naval researcher at the RUSi.org in Whitehall, London. Studied War Studies at King's College, London. RvT are my initials and "Dickie" is my gaming nickname.
