Yes, that’s definitely true as the game stands now--once again, largely designed
around gaming cons where players aren’t going to bring much if anything.

Is there any way to let players do more building (since, after all, that’s
what we all love to do here)? I’m thinking perhaps something where the
players bring their own rooms and trappings to the game, and the BrickMaster
integrates these (as well as he can) into a dungeon on the fly.

I think that’s definitely possible and it’s something I’ve talked about with
Jason Spears, James Seibert, etc. I build all my stuff modularly, but I think
it would be possible to distill a simpler modular system where basically the
floor has to be 4x4 squares and the room connections have to fit, but not
everyone has to build modular walls, etc.--in other words, the room can be a
complete entity. In that case I don’t think there’s a need for a BrickMaster at
all... players can take turn adding to the dungeon, putting their rooms
wherever, and then can start from different entrances and compete against each
other.
In such a case I think players would play more than one character, something
like MageKnight Dungeons.

Or maybe something with two teams, where each team builds their own fortress,
and each team is trying to capture the other team’s king. So both sides
would be both attacking and defending, and both teams would get to do a lot
of building before the game.
|
Hmm, hadn’t thought of that before, but it’s certainly possible.
