Hello All. I've posted pictures of this weekend's BrikWars festivities between Gino Melone and myself. The first battle was a playtest of some experimental Dragon and Skeleton rules Gino and I had come up with. Unfortunately, they're a little (...) (24 years ago, 5-Sep-00, to lugnet.gaming)

(...) Yeah, I kept trying to build the same kind of mechs and running into the same kind of problem. The CMP was kept high because for some reason I wanted the explosives' CMPs to remain the same for troops as for vehicles. (I guess I wanted to keep (...) (24 years ago, 3-Sep-00, to lugnet.gaming)

(...) to (...) more (...) Heh. Um, never mind. I just reread the 2000 rules, and it seems that MK2 missiles no longer have a CMP. Oops. So ignore this paragraph here :) Adrian -- www.brickfrenzy.com (24 years ago, 2-Sep-00, to lugnet.gaming)

(...) The main issue is that this mech is armed with a fairly large number of small (relative to it) MKII missiles, which chew up enormous emounts of -CMP". It seems incongruous to have 4 MKII missiles have as much -CMP" as a MKV laser, which is a (...) (24 years ago, 2-Sep-00, to lugnet.gaming)

(...) If you're building it as a standard vehicle, sure. If you're using the RV rules to build it, then I don't know how well the math will hold up. The Vehicle Perfomance Modification rules were designed to let players modify standard vehicles (...) (24 years ago, 2-Sep-00, to lugnet.gaming)

Okay, I'm costing a mech that's woefully underpowered for all the gizmos that I want to give him, so I have to buy a High Torque option (or two) for the poor guy. I'm assuming that standard vehicle upgrades work on mecha as well, right? If so, then (...) (24 years ago, 2-Sep-00, to lugnet.gaming)

(...) That's the right formula. The HTML update of the RV rules is half-done, and I remembered to put the movement caps in this time. It would have been finished yesterday but I got delayed because I got contracted to work at Jim Henson Studios for (...) (24 years ago, 30-Aug-00, to lugnet.gaming)

What is the movement speed of various robotic propulsion systems? From talking to Mike, I think that it is the (4 * Pwr^2)/Mass. However, I think there is also a cap for each type of propulsion system. Thanks, Gino A... (24 years ago, 29-Aug-00, to lugnet.gaming)

(...) That's the sort of thing I was thinking. Maybe try out some Wizard rules. I've also bulked up on dragons and would like to try some of those. (...) I was thinking that this would be mostly big war machines. You can muster around 1600CP between (...) (24 years ago, 29-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.us.oh, lugnet.gaming)

(...) That could work out well. I could finally try the skeleton army rules. (...) If it's just the two of us, then yeah, we could try that. But we have to be very careful with 3 or more people, due to just the sheer time of all the movements, and (...) (24 years ago, 28-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.us.oh, lugnet.gaming)
