     Steve, that's not true.  Most rules are indeed set up in the
"two-player" frame of mind, as was M:TG, but this is where creativity comes
in.  We used to play Magic with tables full of people, sometimes in a
pattern (you could only attack those to either side), sometimes free-f'rall.
Some of our best times were like that.  We also had 1 on 1 tourneys
together, with the "all-of-us" game being the tourney itself.
     You're only limited, as with playing with Lego bricks, to your
imagination.  A game using Lego pieces could be just as creative, and should
be just as infinitely different for each of us, as is a really good CCG,
which I think makes a great model for a game of this sort.

Peace and Long Life,
Tony Alexander

Every game needs a good working title, so considering the thread which started this off, how about the Portable Patented Plastic Building Brick Bot game? P3B3 for short? James (24 years ago, 23-Nov-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.gaming)

That way all you have to do is mark which unit (...) (24 years ago, 22-Nov-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.gaming)
