8. Constantinople

Ilya volunteered his services with my first game design, Constantinople. My basic, bland, functional art was replaced by Ilya’s excellent theme-appropriate reworking. Ilya was open to feedback and discussion about the game art, but I hardly made any suggestions as his game art and map were beyond my ability to improve. With Ilya’s help, Constantinople won the first boardgamegeek print and play wargame contest including an award for best art work.
