Welcome

E-mail

Hello, you've arrived at the website of Iain Compton. This page isn't very interesting I'm afraid, most of the fun stuff happens on my blogs. Check out either Antipwn if you're interested in the video games industry and games design or Stormy Teacups if wargaming and miniature painting is more your thing.

 

If you want to see what's new then the latest posts from my two public blogs are syndicated down the left and right hand side of this page.  The pictures above are randomly chosen from my Flickr collection (reload the page for a new selection).If you want to ask a question, give feedback or just get in touch then you can leave a comment on either of my blogs or email me at iain at antipwn dot com

 

Thanks for dropping by.

Adventures in figuring out MMO design

    On Wednesday 9th March, voting will begin for the 6th session of the Council of Stellar Management, the player advocacy council in Eve Online. Members of the council play a central role in working with CCP (the developers of Eve Online) to prioritise fixes, to act as a focus group for new suggestions and to [...]
  • The CMC Sessions
    In late August, I was invited to speak at the CMC conference in Leipzig. I gave a talk about how community managers could add their unique perspective to the decision making structures of their current gig or, alternatively how that experience could be translated across to other gigs in the industry. Obviously I was using [...]
  • In the Grim Darkness of the Far Future There Is Only DKP
    It shouldn’t be a surprise to any of you who know my background that I have been very interested in the forthcoming game Dark Millenium: Online – the Warhammer 40k MMO being developed by THQ. While it’s true that the game is some way out and it’s far too early to jump to conclusions just [...]

Adventures in painting toy soldiers
  • One Knight and a Weekend
    I’ve been busy; back in August I was part of Team Wales for the European Team Championships in Montreux. Then there was some work stuff and then I went to the US for a two week holiday. Thus it is that I’ve just got around to reporting on the ETC as well as updating with [...]
  • Grey Knights
    I’ve been pretty busy over the past few months, the game I’m working has passed the feature complete milestone and is about to hit beta so there’s been less time for painting and gaming in general. Despite all that I’ve had a chance to crack on with a few bits and pieces including the start [...]
  • Warriors of Chaos Army
    Today I pretty much finished my Tzeentchian Warriors of Chaos army for Warhammer Fantasy Battles. There are a few things that may get added some time down the road, but there’s nothing that it’s missing. I have two unpainted Spawn along with a handful of Warriors and Knights that are still on their sprues that [...]
