I just took a quick read through your instructions, and this looks really cool!
Although it probably won't satisfy an avid BrikWars player with a long weekend
ahead, I bet it would still make for an enjoyable evening (or lunch hour)
diversion for the rest of us.
I especially like the "pure LEGO" aspect of this game. Using 2x2 bricks in
place of dice is a stroke of genius! It reminds me of when Todd Lehman found a
way to play the dice game Pigs using a handful of Jar-Jar Binks minifig heads.
I also like the Description Sheet concept. It looks like a very simple visual
way to keep track of unit capabilities and status.
One thing that would be helpful would be if you provided a printer-friendly
version of the rulebook. (Maybe you did, and I just didn't see it?) Your site
viewed just fine using the evil IE as my browser, by the way.
I'll have to see if I can rope my friends into trying a game of this to see how
it plays. This should appeal to a wide audience of gamers.
Great work!
