One of the "grand old men" of the wargaming hobby, Lou Zocchi was everyone's "Uncle Lou" and a devout hobby evangelist. Although he designed a few games (Alien Space, The Battle of Britain, Luftwaffe), Lou will probably be best remembered for making the finest dice in the hobby and inventing the "Zocchihedron" (100-sided) die.
Lou Zocchi is now retired, and Gamescience sort of retired with him, but he still runs a booth at the larger conventions. He has been at Origins International Game Expo several times, and presumably he still goes to GenCon[?]. If you can't find him there, his home phone number is still floating around on old Gamescience catalogs. He apparently loves to chat and if he has any Gamescience stock left, he'd love to sell it to you.
