- Francis Tresham (game designer)
Francis Tresham is an United Kingdom-based board game designer who has been producing board games since the early 1970s. Tresham founded and ran games company Hartland Trefoil (founded 1971) until its sale to Microprose in 1997. His "1829" game was the first of the "18xx" board game series [ [http://www.18xx.net/personal.htm#Francis%20Tresham 18xx Designers List on Blackwater Station] ] and some of his board games have inspired Sid Meier computer games such as "Railroad Tycoon".
He is currently managing director of Tresham Games and is, as of 2005, still producing "18xx"-style board games.
