GMT Games Board Games (Liberty or Death, Fire in the Lake, Comanchería)

GMT Games is a prominent American board game publisher specializing in historical wargames and strategy simulations. Founded in 1990 by Gene Billingsley, Rodger MacGowan, and Tony Curtis, the company is headquartered in Hanford, California. They are best known for their 'COIN' (Counter-Insurgency) series, which includes titles such as Liberty or Death and Fire in the Lake.

While GMT Games performs much of its design and development work in the United States, manufacturing is often a global effort. Historically, many components were produced in U.S. facilities to ensure high quality for niche hobbyist products, but they also utilize international partners in China and Europe for large-scale production runs and specialty components. The brand remains privately owned by its original founders, maintaining a strong reputation for community-focused development through its 'P500' pre-order system.
