Stuart John Bernard - Stupendous Games
Stuart John Bernard is the owner of Stupendous
Games. He jumped into the market with Beer: the card game,
earning him the moniker “Hey, Beerman” at conventions
everywhere. Last year saw the release of three Diplomacy ©
variants, one (Ard-Ri) designed by Stuart. Most recently he has
brought us a new way to look at the state quarters, with “Too
Many Georges”. This collectible coin game assigns powers to
the different state quarters, each power used to help you reach
the finish line before your opponents. With the US Mint
releasing new quarters every year, be on the look out for new
powers for “Too Many Georges”. Also, be on the look out for
new Stupendous Games.

Jeff Colledge, president and
co-founder of Bard's Productions, has been playing DnD since the

number generation). With the advent of the d20 Open Gaming
License, he decided to put his gaming experience to good use and
produce products that DMs have been asking for.
Bard's Productions first two products, Common Ground I - Instant

almost none of his thousands of gaming figures, and for killing
off Greg Whalen's characters at an alarming rate. Rob has been
role-playing since the mid-70's, when he tried a virtually
unknown game (called Dungeons & Dragons) run by Gary Gygax
at a convention.
