  Any talk of a Pirate Game or BrikWars at BrickFest 2002?
 
Just wondering, has anyone put up for a Pirate Game or Brikwars for the 2002? and if they have, are there any ideas for scenarios or situations? I'd put a plug in for a Napoleanic, Civil war style BrikWars game if there hasn't been an idea put forth (...) (23 years ago, 2-Dec-01, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.western, lugnet.pirates)

(...) I think the Pirate Game is a "given," provided that Frank, Chris, and I (or any two of the three, I'd bet) are attending. I'm planning to be there this coming year, so there you go. But we usually go campaign-game, though no discussion has yet (...) (23 years ago, 2-Dec-01, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.western, lugnet.pirates)

(...) As Lindsay has said, Pirate Gaming at Brickfest is almost a given. I will be looking for what's to make it less demanding of my time however. I really want to have plenty of time to enjoy Brickfest as a whole. I will welcome thoughts on how to (...)

My own answers to the survey... (...) Not really sure, some preference to campaign (...) Role playing, easier for players to come and go (...) Get to use the larger ships (...) Prefer to GM (...)

(...) Campaign. (...) The "freedom" of such a game to take many tacks to the action Marshalling scarce resources (e.g., building from nothing) (...) BIG SHIPS (...) I might GM, either specific groups of ships or sutling. (...) 48-60. (...) Not that (...)

(...) ...I prefer campaign from bystander and player.

I'm appending to your response with my own answers to the survey and responses to some of your thoughts. (...) Campaign (but ideally one (or more) of each). (...) RPing, flexibility (both in terms of player committment and goals), customizability to (...)

I'll just put my answers right into the text: (...) If time were not the issue, I would push for both. A Campaign game that had time to develop a little would be nice ( getting into bigger ships, more strategical action etc. ) (...) Greater (...)

(...) It's clear from the responses here that a bunch of folks would enjoy a Piratefest. I hope we can eventually do this, because I'm willing to commit a weekend to the Pirate Game, I'm just not willing to commit all of Brickfest weekend to the (...)

If you do indeed mean BrickFest in DC, then yes, there will most likely be at least one BrikWars game. Hopefully several. I am working with WAMALUG, the host club, and am trying to even plan some scenarios so that people can prepare and bring armies (...)
