    Post Howdy Folks

    I'm very happy I found this website. The first map I ever used in a game was for Tactics II and I've been hooked on strategy games ever since. Though I have considerable experience managing a business app development team, the last "serious" graphics I ever did was playing with the registers of an EGA/VGA card. I have used CAD software in my work but I don't count that.

    I'm off to do some heavy reading and this looks like the place where I'm going to find what I'm looking for. As you have probably surmised, I'm a bit older than most people here (I'm specualting of course) but that little kid inside wants to make a terrific strategy game with scrolling maps and is trying to bust out. I'll see yall around!

    Welcome and yeah I suspect that speculation might be a little pessimistic...
