Good evening. You are listening to Three Moves Ahead. I am Len. I'm your host for this week.

And I am joined by our special guest, David Leggetti, the CEO of Micropros.

Hello. Welcome.

Yeah. And, you know, we were excited to have you on here because I feel like micropros to a lot of strategy gamers, a lot of 3MA listeners, especially those of us who are maybe getting a little on in years.

You know, growing up in the 90s, remember it as as sort of like a cherished old school strategy brand that then you know for

really it was like the better part of 20 years was like whatever happened to those guys

you know sid moved on and and started for access and all that but uh the first thing

I wanted to ask you is kind of like, what was your first experience

that you could remember like with Microprose games back in the day?

And how did you develop sort of a relationship with that name?

Yeah, look, it's funny.

Now, just thinking back, it would have been solo flight, the original, one of the original games.

And as a kid, I remember sort of, you know, I was very much into flight sims and things like that.

But way, way back then, you know, there wasn't a lot of Microsoft flights and wasn't around back sort of then and um it was these very

arbitrary uh games like mig alley and all these you know very very simplified games so but remember um solo

flight was probably one of the very first games where you can actually fly and do these mail runs and things

like that.

And it really captured sort of my imagination, which you had to have back in those days

with the games, right?

Because a lot of it was filled in by your imagination with the mammographics and how games

sort of function back then.

But it actually led to a pretty burning desire inside to fly
