Description
Alessio Cavatore in conversation with Jordan Sorcery. Alessio has designed countless games in his remarkable tabletop career. At Games Workshop he worked on a host of Armies Books before taking over as design lead for Lord of the Rings: Strategy Battle Game, Warhammer Fantasy Battles, and Warhammer 40,000. Since leaving Games Workshop Alessio has contributed extensively to games like Bolt Action from Warlord Games and Kings of War from Mantic. He has also founded his own company, River Horse Games, to develop board game adaptations of classic movies like Labyrinth, Highlander, and the Hunger Games.
