If it weren't for Nationstates I would have never had the resources to work on one of my own personal goals and realize a childhood dream. With the amount of time I spent on the forums, roleplaying my nation and rendering spaceships on Doga, I have been given the inspiration to start a wargaming company. This is not an advertisement, but me simply showing that this game is awesome and that Max Barry is my own personal saviour for inventing it.

I present to you, Gorgon.

I'm happy to see it finally happen. I've been wargaming since I was five years old. When I turned 14, I came to the conclusion that I'd love to start a wargaming company when I was older. I started playing Nationstates when I was 18. Created Gorgon when I was 20. Now that I'm 23, I now have something to play with on my coffee table that is really mine. And only for an investment of 500 American dollars.

Thank you, Max Barry. Expect a copy of one of these in the mail in the next few months. :P

My business plan is infallible. The plan is to expect to operate at a loss and if we break even, that is fine too. It's a hobby business, so in the end, as long as I have my own miniatures to play with I'm happy. If they sell well, then that is awesome too.

The rules and plot are actually being worked on by myself, Derscon, Godular and a few other Nationstates players. This game is 100% thanks to this game and Max Barry and for that I am eternally grateful.

Very nice ship design! I wish you the best of luck on the Wargaming Company. I myself play Warhammer 40k and I hope your company can have as great success as Games Workshop.
