Hey gang,

On Thursday, October 4th, a few of us BLOC people and Larry P got together
to play a little BrikWars campaign.

My first BrikWars. Good clean fun (well, ok, messy)

I uploaded my pics and they can be seen here:

Thanks guys! Let's do it again some time.

Looks like you guys had a blast.  I keep meaning to actually give the brickwars
rules a go, but haven't a chance yet.  Well maybe at ConFusion.  Thanks for
sharing the pictures.

Well, that train station blocking the path of the oversized load certainly
did, anyway. Two bundles of dynamite against the "level crossing" shelter
and there's not much left of it.

I keep meaning to actually give the brickwars
rules a go, but haven't a chance yet.

Hewing closely to the rules sort of misses the point, I think, (grin) so
it's not that hard to get started. If you've played miniatures, tactical
strategy (star fleet battles) or RPGs before it's a snap. If you've played
the pirate game before, you're already in the rather devil may care, "oh
well, it's only some of my guys that just got dismembered", state of mind
required.

It's not so much learning the rules, as getting the time to do it.  Finding
other players, and the putting of the army together.  Actually, there was some
talk of doing this at ConFusion, so maybe we will get a chance then.
