[Deptheads] Guest of Honor for Gamex 2012 Description for Richard Borg

[Victor B]

Richard Borg is awesome and appeals to gamers of all types as he has done board games, several ccg games, rpg supplements, wargames, toys, etc.
"What's your favorite game of his?"....I celebrate the guy's entire catalogue (office space twist).
Richard and Tom are two of my favorite game designers.

Tanya, 

For the Guest of Honor page, here is Richard Borg's bio and picture.

Eric - Is Tom Jolly officially a Guest of Honor or just a Special Guest? I love Tom more than most but just checking since he's been a GOH before.

Richard’s professional game credits cover a broad spectrum, which includes over 50 game titles. Milton Bradley published his first game, ‘Liars Dice’ a family dice game, in 1988. Following up this initial success were a number of AD&D games (TSR), a series of X-Men games (Pressman Toy) and another hit for Milton Bradley, ‘Times to Remember’.
In 1993, ‘Liars Dice’ went to Europe as ‘Bluff’ and won the German Prize ‘Spiel des Jahres’. Richard was also part of the ‘Star Wars’ customizable card game design team and involved with a number of other collectible card games. Many of Richard’s award-winning hobby game designs are still currently available, they include: Memoir ’44 (Days of Wonder), Commands & Colors Ancients, Commands & Colors Napoleonics (GMT Games), BattleLore (Fantasy Flight) and Richard's newest game design, Abaddon (Toy Vault) is receiving some attention from the game community.
Because his body of work does encompass so many age groups and genres, you just may have one or more of Richard’s designs in your personal game collection.
