Exactly! There will be many predecessors to 'Brik Wars', but that makes no
difference - each system is judged on it's own merits - and having a
non-anoraky alternative (low dice, no lookup) is especially welcome when all
you want is a quick and non-intense "You moved your character half a stud
extra, you've ruined the whole game - regular marines can move only five studs
without bionic implants - it's no longer realistic.. gnrrr gnrrr! (wet
blood-vessel popping sound)", option is great!

Btw, who called it 'Brik' rather than 'Brick'? At least it wasn't called
'Brik Warz', that would be a bit too passé :)
