Video game Let's Plays, reviews and strategy game design analysis for eXplorminate over at YouTube, and my own YT channel BATTLEMODE.

Editor-in-Chief for 4X and Strategy gaming site eXplorminate.co. Duties include selecting articles for publication and all aspects of editing, from substantive through copy/line to mechanical editing, all done in WordPress.I'm also a video games journalist (actually covering video games, not politics) and write deep-dive reviews and design analysis for PC games, particularly in the 4X, Grand-Strategy, Wargames and Tactics genres. My background in Computer Science and AI is occasionally useful for the more technical aspects, but I focus on stylistic writing: strategy gaming can be perceived as a little dry, and I aim to inject a little fun and humour.
