Clint has been using wargames to teach high school students about military history for many years. This requires cramming in large amounts of detail into simple games that can be played in an hour or less. This experience in the classroom has allowed him to make games that capture the essence of a conflict with a minimum of rules, components or downtime. It has also led to his latest design from Worthington Games - One Hour WW2 - an attempt to portray all of the Second World War in a game lasting one hour. In this presentation, Clint will break down his design process and share his experiences in simplifying large scale conflicts into compact and accessible games for both fun and educational use.
