Atlas Games
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Atlas Games is a company which publishes role-playing games, board games and card games. Its founder and current president is John Nephew.
History[edit]
When Atlas Games did not have the finances to publish On the Edge (1994), they partnered with Jerry Corrick and Bob Brynildson and formed a new corporation called Trident, Inc. to publish the game.[1] Eventually Atlas would be subsumed into Trident; Brynildson, Corrick, and their store - The Source Comics & Games - continued to support Atlas with their business experience and perspective.[1]
