I have some of his games across the hall in my library. A great game designer and author.

RIP Mr. Prados.
I only knew of him via his boardgame design. Seeing his name meant that, even if you didn't like the game, there was a wealth of information hidden in it. And his bibliographies were treasure troves or source material.

Sad – loved his work and especially Rise and Fall of the Third Reich

I cut my teeth in the 70s & 80s playing his games. I also loved Third Reich. I even liked Spies. Great designer. A list of his games:

I would like to know how much time I spent playing Third Reich in high school. I'm sure it reduced my liquor bill. rip

Another real loss. Thanks for all those good designs
and RIP.

Never knew he was a game designer! He co-authored Valley of
Decision with Ray Stubbe, definitive work covering Khe Sanh.
May he rest in Peace.
