Columbia Games is a maker of board and role-playing games including Hârn and the "block" series (Wizard Kings and wargames). The company is based in Blaine, Washington; it is run by founder Tom Dalgliesh and his son Grant.
Columbia's most well-known games are block wargames. Many of these games are very suitable to introducing new players to the hobby, but there are also some very detailed games that have been produced, such as MasterFront, a monster wargame depicting the entire war in Europe, complete with various what-if situations.
In the late 1990s, the company began producing collectible card games based upon military themes for the American Civil War (such as Dixie) and the Napoleonic Wars.
Columbia is one of the hobby's oldest wargame companies. Tom Dalgliesh founded Gamma Two Games in Vancouver BC in the early 1970s, and published his first game in 1972. Gamma Two Games became Columbia Games when Dalgliesh partnered with Lance Gutteridge in 1982. Columbia Games moved from Vancouver BC to Washington State in 1994. It is speculated that NAFTA (which took effect on January 1, 1994) played a part in this strategic move.
Columbia also publishes Hârn a high-realism/low-magic fantasy world for use in role-playing games and for collaborative fiction. The Hârn product line is compatible with Hârn products produced by N. Robin Crossby and additionally supported by a large body of additional material produced by strong and dedicated community of fans.

HârnMaster uses a realistic interactive combat system that gives players many tactical options to control their combat destiny. The system is elegant, simple and easy to use.

Earth has been ravaged by nuclear and biological warfare known as Earthome War. Now a barren and poisonous wasteland; humanity is thought to be extinct there. Remnants of humanity are scattered on planets, moons, and space stations throughout the Solar System. Once the brightest achievements of progress, the High Colonies are the last hope for humanity.
But it’s a slender hope.
