	A Chat With John Nephew of Atlas Games \| Gamegrene.com
		I had already been freelancing in the games industry since 1986, working with TSR (writing and editing D&D and AD&D books, mainly) and with Lion Rampant (wearing many hats over the course of a couple of years, including President).
		Since starting Atlas I've done a lot less writing of my own, but I've been lucky enough to find folks who are much better writers and designers than I am, and to make a living bringing their work to gamers.
		But like other booms in the game industry, it was followed by a bust.

	Rune News: Atlas Games' Rune RPG
		Atlas creates rules for each title based on the game genre and type of player interaction needed, rather than recycling or extending a “house rules” system.
		According to Atlas Games President John Nephew, the Rune RPG rules are based loosely on the rules of the popular Atlas title Ars Magica, but “Rune is quite different because it focuses on the Norse and their mythology.
		During our interview, the Atlas crew couldn’t say enough good things about Robin, John flatly stating, “We selected Robin because he's the best freelance RPG writer active in the game industry.he's very good adopting a particular attitude and keeping a consistent voice for the things that he writes.

	Atlas: Edutainment games---Homo Culturalis vs. Homo Ludens by Kalina Sotirova
		Edutainment games, which have been becoming popular in Europe, could be helpful in achieving the good goal of preserving and widening the access to the written cultural heritage.
		The existing historical, psychological, and anthropological studies on games, and even mathematical 'game theory' are limited because of their narrow focus on specific parts of the puzzle we call 'game'.
		There are different definitions of what a game is, but here we use one that is fairly suitable for the scope of this article: 'game is a form of computer art in which participants(players), put up with specific rules, make decisions in the pursuit of a goal.

	Dinosaur and Evolution Games - Spotlight on Games
		Not a kiddie game (although the introductory game can be played by them) but a full-fledged, fairly realistic simulation.
		The game object is to evolve from a lungfish into modern man. A set of event cards allow moving predators, evolving predators, and shifting continents.
		There is the turn in which one chooses the island of competition, after that the turn one spends only planning, after that the turn in which one goes last and has a very good chance of knowing what the land of competition will be and finally the neutral turn.

		In a single deck game you should double down on a pair of 4’s when the dealer shows a 5 or 6.
		In multiple deck games the better strategy is to split the 4’s when the dealer shows a 5 or 6 (with DAS).
		In a single deck game the 4, 5 and 6’s are important cards for the dealer to make his hand and not bust when he has a stiff.

		Besides, he knew he needed to have an alternate identity before he tried anyhitng. He had barely decided on a name and costume, when the company he ws working for was attacked by Dr. Praetorious, a scientific mastermind who wanted to control all scientific progress.
		Atlas (as Powers had decided to call himself) was able to stop him, but earned Praetorious' emnity for doing so. Over the last 30+ years, he has fought many different villians, super and normal, with Dr. Praetorious his most frequent and greatest nemesis. Very recently, Atlas got wind of another of Praetorious' plots.
		The creature intercepted Atlas' run at Praetorious, and during the fight grabbed Atlas around the waist and began to squeeze.

	Atlas: Repeated Games with Probabilistic Horizon by Ivan Arribas (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
		Repeated games with probabilistic horizon are defined as those games where players have a common structure of probability over the length of their repetition.
		Moreover, finite stage games with probabilistic horizon unify the analysis for finitely repeated games, infinitely repeated games with discount factor and infinitely repeated games with limit average payoffs.
		For differentiable games we reinterpret the Bernheim and Dasgupta's results and we classify the games according to both the (first order) convergence speed of the original probability distribution and the second order convergence speed of its logarithm.

		There's often not much to say about an individual's games in most of these categories (would you want to read a page on "That Time I Was Playing Monopoly"?), but every now and then, there's a game worth talking about.
		I ran a game of this for about seven years, roughly 1993-1999, and I think it came to a good end.

		Atlas Games utropar 2004 till ett nytt rekordår för företaget.
		Då ska man minnas att 2000 gav Atlas Games ut Three Days to Kill och började på allvar med sin d20-linje när de flesta fortfarande försökte klura ut licensens finstilta.
		Atlas Games har dessutom försökt sig på att låta folk ladda ner Ars Magica-reglerna gratis i ett försök att öka försäljningen, men detta har tydligen inget med den ökade försäljningen att göra då John Nephew på Atlas Games menar att det är kort- och sällskapsspelen som står för krognotan, inte rollspelen.
