Hamish has been playing, designing and tweaking games since he discovered Fighting Fantasy gamebooks in the mid-80s. Most of that designing and tweaking has involved tabletop roleplaying games and miniatures wargames, but a few free-form larps and multiplayer team strategy games (now also known as "megagames") have snuck into the mix along the way. After a decade in Los Angeles, Maine, and other parts of the US, he is now back in Aotearoa. In addition to Ardens Ludere, he is part of the creative team at Cheeky Mountain Parrot Games.
