Armchair General Game Reviewers

We are looking for a few good men (and women) to join the Armchair General website team to review video games, wargames, board games, and even console games.  You must at a minimum be able to put your thoughts on the game into words, but it helps if you have prior experience with game reviews.  These are part-time paid staff positions (paid per-article), and you also get to keep whatever games are sent your way.  Not a bad deal if you were going to buy them anyway!
