Heyy BGDF!
I came across a link to this website while checking out the UK game expo page.
I am in my third year at university and I work as a care worker with young people. I also run my own company teaching circus skills and performing. In between the essays and the juggling, I have somehow found a bit of time to get my board game idea on paper!
I am currently fairly well progressed with a game I am currently calling 'joust' but that needs a much better name ASAP. It's a campaign style game based on medieval tournaments. It's designed to represent the sport and character of the competitions, rather than be purely combat focused.
When and where I can, I've been testing this on family, friends and work mates and I have a small tournament running with about 8 different players with characters. Everyone has accepted that rules and stuff will change as the game develops!
The rule book is usable, but I have some of the longer campaign sections to write soon...
I also have an idea about a naval game based half in board mechanics and half in RPG based story/strategy.
Anyhoo...
