I would suggest that we develop a web page with our updates so that people can
stay up to date on us. And if all the events listed the same URL, we'd have
cross-over enthusiasm. But do we really want multiple boat owners? How are we
all going to tranport fleets and islands and props and everything. I'm driving
this year, so I'll have some room, but not as much as when I come to BrikFest
since I'll have the family.
I'd love to have an tiered-campaign in which a game of Pirate wars (either?)
set the stage for a BrikWar and then the survivors (or something) had a pirate
game getting "the treasure" back home. Or a BrikWar in which a band of thugs
(or army) capture a port and take the sailing ships as prizes and set out onto
the seas to play a Pirate game and then assault another port with BrikWars
rules. Or something. Any interest?

I'm sure this can be arranged.

This is really important. Can we form an ad hoc (or more permanent) national
LEGO gaming club (with nifty name, and all) so that we have an apparent
position of strength with something to offer?
