Brikwars? We don't have that in the U.K. I'll have to check it out if I ever
make it as far as one of the shows running it. If I ever find that suicide
bomber that I saw on Brickshelf, I'll let you know.

Not to add fuel to this fire, but the are more than a few suicide-bomber and
bombed-out-building photos on Brickshelf, and by coincidence I think all of
them are in the context of BrikWars games.  Specifically, NELUG's games, so
we know that the players are for the most part (a) great model-builders and
genuine fans of the brick, (b) quite likely morally bankrupt to begin with,
and (c) unabashed in their glorification of the hilarity of warfare.  I'm
not sure how that affects your argument, but that's where the photos are from.

As a side note, BrikWars is quite alive and well in the U.K., judging from
the amount of e-mail I receive.  It hasn't been run at any shows there yet
though, as far as I've heard.

(...) I did indeed expect to be challenged and in your response, you have given me very good run for my money. For that I salute you. For the record, I don't deride people who create military MOCs (That's a bit strong) it's that I don't understand (...) (21 years ago, 14-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.military)
