Steel Studios Enlists Scenario Designer, Jason "The Rasher" Dillman
New Strike Team Member to contribute to Empire Earth, the cutting edge
real-time strategy game
November
28, 2000
Stainless
Steel Studios, developer of the next generation of strategy games, today
announced that Jason "The Rasher" Dillman has joined the Empire
Earth Strike Team. The Strike Team is a group of highly talented, hardcore
gamers who will design, build, and play test Empire Earth’s single player
scenarios. Jason is designing a single player campaign that will follow a
portion of British history. He will also add his expertise to the development
of the other planned campaigns and learning scenarios.
Though
Jason is 16 years of age, he has already amassed an impressive list of
scenario designing credentials. He created the highly rated "Magnus"
campaign series for Age of Empires. He was a finalist in both the Rise of Rome
Campaign Design Contest and the Mongolian Campaign Design Contest, each
sponsored by the Age of Empires Heaven Web Site, and the Winner of a Scenario
Design Contest sponsored by the AOE2.COM Web Site. More recently, Jason’s Age
of Kings scenario "Roland’s Quest" received a 4.8 out of 5 rating
from AoK Heaven.
Jason
is currently a home-schooled grade 12 student living in Dartmouth, Nova
Scotia. Additionally, Jason has been working for over a year at the Age of
Empires Heaven and Age of Kings Heaven Web Sites, where he moderates the
Scenario Editing Forum and writes scenario reviews (over 75 so far). When
Jason heard that Rick Goodman, Lead Designer of Age of Empires, was working on
a new epic real-time strategy project called Empire Earth, he immediately made
contact. When the Strike Team was assembled, Jason was on it. Jason’s
intelligence, maturity, and attention to detail assure that his work on Empire
Earth will be of the highest quality.
