MilitaryGamer.com is owned and operated by David Heath of Matrix
Games.  Wargamer.com was bought by MilitaryGamer.com.  Ergo,
Wargamer.com is owned and operated by David Heath of Matrix Games.  So
why not say so?

 - Nowhere on Wargamer.com does it say that Matrix Games own
Wargamer.com - check the staff and contacts.  No indication.

 - When Uncommon Valor is rejected outright by Wargamer.com but later
wins a 'Best of 2002' award - accompanied by a revised review - after
Matrix Games buys them, shouldn't we know that this is because David
Heath ordered it?

 - If posts questioning the connection between Wargamer.com and Matrix
Games are deleted from the Wargamer.com forums, should we assume this
is because David Heath wants to tell us himself?  Or that he's falsely
trying to make the site appear legit?  Hmmm....

When you think "Wargamer.com", think "Mouthpiece of Matrix Games".  
That's right, "MOUTHPIECE OF MATRIX GAMES".

So, um, where do we go now to get unbiased wargaming reviews?

Wargamer.com = Matrix Games = Wargamer.com = Matrix Games = ....
