    BrikWars 1942! —Eric Joslin
   Achtung! Shaun Sullivan and I got together last night and played a bit of BrikWars. Inspired by Shaun's awesome WWII models, we decided to go with a scenario set in 1942. We took a few pictures, and I prepared a little website for everyone's (...) (24 years ago, 27-Jul-00, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.gaming) !

     That setup is pretty cool. All kinds of little details here and there. Also, it's an inspiration for those who like building WW11 models. (24 years ago, 27-Jul-00, to lugnet.gaming)

     (...) damned if you didn't beat me to it! I love the little bombed-out French town. The picture of the Allied private splattering huge amounts of gore with his hatchet attack got a big laugh from everybody here at the college library. - Mike. (24 years ago, 28-Jul-00, to lugnet.gaming)
   
        Re: BrikWars 1942! —Lindsay Frederick Braun
      (...) It looks stunning! I still love that armoured car, and the proxy bits used for the soldiers are excellent choices. One would almost think TLG had taken up making soldiers! <historian-nitpick> You probably ought to call it "BrikWars 1944," or (...) (24 years ago, 28-Jul-00, to lugnet.gaming)
    
         Re: BrikWars 1942! —Eric Joslin
      (...) Ack! I knew something like that would come up. I have to admit I'm no big freak for actual historical WWII dates and such, so I knew this would come up. Uh, yeah, it's a commando raid. That's it! :D (...) Heh. That was probably my favorite (...) (24 years ago, 28-Jul-00, to lugnet.gaming)
    
         Re: BrikWars 1942! —Shaun Sullivan
      (...) I was thinking maybe we should try and use the lend-lease program as an excuse, and pretend that we were also lend-leasing some troops? ;) Ahh, naah, nobody will buy it. I s'pose we could either: (a) become inspired and re-type the title on (...) (24 years ago, 28-Jul-00, to lugnet.gaming)

   Please allow me to personally award that brave, American minifig the Conbricksional Medal of Honor. He certainly deserves it. Tony (24 years ago, 29-Jul-00, to lugnet.gaming)
   
        Re: BrikWars 1942! —Eric Joslin
   (...) On his behalf, I accept. He's too busy chatting up the Princess from Knight's Kingdom and the girls from the Adventurers sets to make the ceremony. Actually, I was hoping that for the next game we might make him a Hero and include him again as (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.gaming)

   (...) So in other words you really really want to see him buy the farm, eh? What's the average lifespan of a brikwars fig? .4 of a scenario??? ++Lar (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.gaming)
   
        Re: BrikWars 1942! —Shaun Sullivan
   (...) Ahh, it depends on who's rolling the dice :D With Eric behind the magic cubes, the average lifespan is arround 0.8 scenarios. Sadly for my troops, my statistics indicate something more along the lines of 0.3-0.4. Actually, I fully endorse the (...) (24 years ago, 1-Aug-00, to lugnet.gaming)
   
        Re: BrikWars 1942! —Eric Joslin
   (...) Well, now, to be fair, it was your rolling that kept my troops alive, and my rolling that wiped yours out. After all, you roll to-hit and damage for your troops' shots... so it was your rolling that led to the long lifespan of my troopers! ;D (...) (24 years ago, 1-Aug-00, to lugnet.gaming)
