Todd,
These look great! The incorporation of the two themes looks amazing, and some of
your details are jaw-dropping. Now to convince you to bring some to the next
Brikwars game ...
Can't wait to see more ...

Where are the Brikwars events held? Anywhere near the eastern U.S.? And when
are they held? Monthly?

Wow I almost missed this in .duplo. Followups set to lugnet.fun.gaming
Well we just had our first NELUG Brikwars event last Saturday in Waltham
Massachusetts so we are on the East Coast all-be-it the Northern end of the
East Coast. We are planning on more meetings soon so watch lugnet.org.us.nelug
for details.
Here are some pictures from Saturday.

Massachusetts. Ugh. "Mom, can I have $90 for a bus fare to Massachusetts to
meet with some strangers I hardly even know?"
What sort of event is Brikwars? Are you supposed to bring your own Lego
models, or are Lego peices provided?
How long is the average event? I might be allowed to go to Massachusetts .. if
I paid the bus fare myself .. that would be really fun.
I live in Ohio, BTW.

NELUG held one this past Saturday (4/1/2000) in Waltham, Massachusetts, but
there's no set schedule. We're talking about another one soon, so if Ma isn't
too far for you, you're more than welcome to join us. You can follow the
discussion in the lugnet.org.us.nelug group. You can also find links to
pictures from the last one there.
If Massachusetts is too much of a hike, I think Stephen Roberts was trying to
organise one further south, around DC. Check the DC area group for that.
