  Awwwwww, nuts! I'm in need of help...
 
...with LEGO Island the game. (I'll pass on the comments that I need help personally. That's another post in another place.) This is not to be confused with LEGO Island 2, or LEGO Island Extreme stunts. Specifically, I need a set of directions on (...)

  ClueGo: Detective work was never so messy
 
Hi all! ClueGo is an idea I've been toying with for some time now. It mixes the game of Cluedo (a relativly boring detective game) with Brickwars. After a few plays to see if the game balance was playable and making a few props, Christmas provided (...)

  Re: Starship FAQ Idea
 
Richard, I do believe you have hit the proverbial self-sealing stem bolt on the head. Keep it the way it is, most especially including the example of the adventure of the Sirius which is very helpful in terms of what to expect for adventuring. I got (...)

  Re: Intro Sector Idea

I think this is a good idea - something simple that takes them through 6 or 8 'turns' including docking at a station, that gets them travel documents to enter adventure sectors (if they survive ;-).

  Re: BOW, A new brick wargame
 
(...) I think this is an absolutely fantastic idea! I love the concept, plus the idea that it's more statistically balanced. For instance, a normal 1d20 will do something "somewhere" between 1 and 20, but the odds of a 1 are just as likely as a 14 (...) (18 years ago, 21-Nov-06, to lugnet.gaming, FTX)
