I was very fortunate to spend a few weeks in Tallinn in the summer of 1990, an astonishing time to be there.

Estonia emerged as a tech startup incubator in those first few years of independence, as a way of attracting capital and talent.

Now I need to learn about this game and book!

I previously wrote a book (Rebooting a Nation) on how the country of Estonia modernized post re-independence from the Soviet Union. As part of my research I also learned about the Forest Brother movement where tens of thousands of men, women, and children in the Baltics fled to the forests as the Soviets pushed the Nazi's back and re-occupied those countries. Most of the stories are equal mixes of heroic and tragic, but I found the resistance movement fascinating and had an idea for a turn-based strategy game that mixed in historical elements (and thought it was a good use case to test Fable). This is my first game, so I'd very much welcome feedback on ways to improve it!
