				<title>Jumped or Pushed?</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ I've just read the interview with Rick Priestley in Miniature Wargames and the interviewer didn't really push very hard to tell his side. What he does say suggests that he was sidelined from <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(50);'>GW</span>'s ruling body, my interpretation is that he felt <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(50);'>GW</span> were trying to get him to quit. I'd back that up (unless it appears in the next <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(143);'>WD</span>) by saying that if it was amicable why did <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(143);'>WD</span> not have a big feature thanking him for his service seeing as how important he has been to their whole business?]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ It's how the big companies get rid of people who've been there a while but aren't part of their 'bigger picture'.<br /> <br /> - MAKE THEM QUIT.  Severance package is cheaper.<br /> <br /> Give them crappy nowhere jobs and a sideways 'promotion' and hope they get jack of it and leave.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Chances are he was pushed out the same way they pushed out Alessio. Changed his contract, kicked him down a salary scale or two, made him sweep behind the shed instead of writing rules, that sort of stuff.<br /> <br /> Who is left? Robin Cruddy? Mat Ward? Phil Kelly? Oh boy..<br /> <br /> As for writing rules for other companies: he did that with Jervis, producing the excellent Black Powder rules.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Thing is Andy & Alessio were comparative late-comers. Rick was there from the beginning and responsible for much of the framework other workers built off of.<br /> <br /> I still think Tuomas (sp?) was their best overall rules guys. WFB6 was a very solid project at launch.]]></description>
