Minnesota must have been in the back of the line when God distributed the BrikWars players over the U.S. So far, I've only been able to play with my brother and my cousin. It gets lonely.

Mmm, good questions. I guess these would need to be answered eventually on the behalf of many people.

Hi guys, I've been interested in this Starship game for quite awhile now, looks like there's a good amount of excitement about it, but I've never been able to quite figure out exactly what it was.

Well, you know, it doesn't have to be a 2000-page document. I could hammer out 15 or 20 paragraphs easy on Helix. Every one or two could cover different aspects of the places and things.
