davywavyI've mentioned 'Veitnam Bloodbath' before now; the laugh-a-minute game of South-East Asian counter-insurgency warfare. Sadly, no reputable game company would ever look at it so it's unlikely it'll ever get published unless I do it myself, but I sent ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
robinbloke a copy for him to read and he's posted a flattering and glowing review of my work , which is always good for the old ego, especially as I was feeling rather down this morning.
Anyone know any game companies that accept unsolicited manuscripts of tasteless comedy wargames?

Date: 2002-11-03 12:59 pm (UTC)Id say the best way of getting this as a published game is to actually publish the manuscript for free on the net. It works like this - Your game gets played and you have a site to generate players, the game could also be played at cons and so on since its published. Given enough good press, getting a game company to publish your stuff is easy since noone really wants a printed copy when they can get a glossy, and it gets the game even more press.
Especially for these quirky and potentially politically incorrect games, this is the best route.
