A Special Thanks to all the people who have helped make this possible:
To my wife Mandy, who always has my back and endures my crippling wargaming addiction.
And to my mother Kandie, for always supporting my writing and creative endeavors; love ya!
Euan Smith has been pivotal in providing feedback, play testing, and general good-natured
banter throughout the testing process and was the first stranger to adopt this game for use, as
well as partaking in the historical First International Brutality game with the Pimpcron via
Vassal. He is also the creator of the historical first-ever Brutality battle reports which were
quite clever.
Nathan Garza has been a frequent play tester and has always been helpful in editing and
support.
Thanks to my test players Brandon Keplinger, Matt Collins, Derek Helms, Ash Giska, Andrew
Haggenbottom, JD Wilkins, Josh Horsman, and Maximilian Drewicz who have all helped
develop this game through lots of play testing and input. Thanks for always being willing to try
something new for a friend. Special thanks to my life-long friend James Mason for being the
wall I bounce most of my ideas off of at work, and for always listening to me yammer on about
this game.
Special thanks to Deviant Artist Wildweasel339 for most of the amazing artwork featured
in this book. You can find his stunning gallery here:

Images used in this book on the front cover, pages 32, 37, 39, 41, 46, and 82 were sourced from
