This is a message from the inside at Avalon Hill. It was announced
All current employees of Avalon Hill have been terminated. This
Don Greenwood, Ben Knight, Stuart Tucker, Bill Levay, J.C. Connors,
to us this morning that Hasbro has acquired the entirety of
The Avalon Hill Game Company.
includes:
Christopher Lawrence, Rich Kuryk, Mark Glidden, and Steve Holmes.
What does this mean for the future of Avalon Hill? We don't
know. All titles and future titles are no the rights of Hasbro,
including the upcoming Galaxy: the Arena and RuneQuest: Slayers.
We wish we could tell you more. We don't have any more
answers. But we do want to thank the loyal fans that have
made Avalon Hill. It was your support that made us the
grandfather of boardgaming.
We all hope Hasbro continues this tradition.
If anyone has any questions, you can e-mail me at home. I
may not have much more to say, but I'll do my best.
BTW -- Anyone who hasn't picked up copies of Civilization,
do it now. They won't be around much longer.
