Mr. Nicholas Anthony Tockert II

I am a Freelance Artist, Author, Game Designer, Swordmaster and a dabbling, though retired, paranormal investigator. I have spent 20 years freely instructing students in the art of swordplay. During that time I have worked with students from numerous disciplines, specializing in adaptive techniques to help those with physical limitations. The Simple Sword Series is born out of years or study trying to distill period texts into a simple to understand system for anyone who wants to be able to use a sword, regardless of groups.

My work with special needs individuals combined with my love of tactics games lead me to believe there is need for mechanically simple, but full featured game systems that also are inexpensive. BSR was born out of wanting a fast fun game I could play anywhere with nearly anything.
