With the success of Force on Force and its companion books, the buzz surrounding the recent release of Tomorrow’s War, our recent licensing partnership with Elhiem Figures, and other as-yet-to-be announced projects in the works, Ambush Alley Games has clearly entered a thrilling new phase in its evolution from a small PDF provider to widely distributed creator of top quality modern and science fiction miniature wargame rules. As part of this chapter of growth, we are happy to announce that Jim Roots will be joining Ambush Alley Games as a new member of our board of directors.
In addition to game development experience stretching back to involvement as a play-tester with Game Designer’s Workshop, where he was involved with such projects as the highly acclaimed Assault system series of modern wargames, Jim also brings deep business insight to the table. Jim is currently the Executive Vice President of Strategic Planning for the advertising company HY Connect, and has helped grow other businesses during the course of his career. Jim also boasts a Master’s Degree in History and an undergraduate degree in classical philology from the University of Illinois. Best of all, Jim came to our company as a fan of our games and has already been involved in many of our recent projects.
As a board member, Jim will be providing advice on the growth of Ambush Alley Games as a whole and assisting the existing board members with the development of ongoing projects. Jim’s talents in publicity and advertisement will also be put to good use. We believe Jim will prove to be one more ingredient in the Ambush Alley Games recipe for success in the gaming industry!
