Rodger B. MacGowan passed away yesterday, February 21, 2025. His contributions to the gaming industry are enormous and go back decades. He founded Fire & Movement magazine back in the 70s. Rodger created some of the most iconic art for classic games like Squad Leader. Sadly, his home was destroyed in the recent LA fires.
I did not know Rodger. We had crossed paths late last year on X. He enjoyed that I knew who Sargent Stryker was. Recently, he followed me, which I took as a small honor.
Please pray for the eternal repose of his soul and his grieving family who loved him so dearly.
I gasped when I read this. I'm so sorry to hear about it. Rodger's contribution to gaming can't be overstated. Thoughts and love to his family and friends.
My response was audible as well. Terrible to hear! Prayers for him and his family as they continue to recover from the fire.
