(In BrikWars) Is it okay to have a vehicle with both a robot brain and/or a regular driver or gunner? ~Clangador (20 years ago, 15-Jun-04, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars)

(...) Well, it makes sense. I didn't know if it was intentional or not. I've seen pictures of 'Mechs (in BrikWars) that have unarmored joints. ~Clangador (20 years ago, 14-Jun-04, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars)

(...) Well-built models will always have an advantage over poorly-built models. That's completely intentional. The question isn't about whether a properly-armored mech has an unfair advantage, but rather, why would anyone pay full CP and then not (...) (20 years ago, 14-Jun-04, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars)

(...) Okay. I'm digging it. My friend, who I'll be playing against next Sunday asked me this question. If he builds covers over the joints of his mecha, will that prevent an attack against the joint until the cover is blasted away? It seems like it (...)

(...) It's more the difference between the attacker saying "I attack your mech" and "I attack the inner joint of your mech's left elbow." If he attacks a specific part, then he can use component damage. If he attacks the mech in general, then he (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jun-04, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars)

(...) It looked like you'd answered your own question in the earlier post - any mixture of component, statistic, or platform damage will do. It all depends on which type of damage the attacker thinks is most effective or most appropriate to the type (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.gaming, lugnet.gaming.brikwars)

Hello, I have a question. I guess my other post on this didn't get thru. I played a game of BrikWars Sunday. We played 10 troopers and a singel 'Mech each. I'm using the Robitic Vehicles rules. The damage rules for 'Mechs seems kind of unclear. How (...) (20 years ago, 8-Jun-04, to lugnet.gaming, lugnet.gaming.brikwars)

I'm working on making stats for a LEGO motorcycle in BrikWars. But, when I work it all out, it comes up with 0.5 inch for a movement rate. I'm either doing something wrong, or the stats in the game break down at some points. Or, I may not know what (...) (20 years ago, 28-May-04, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars)

Thanks Shaun, but don't be modest. Your write-up is what gives the site life. By the way, there is a cheesy easter egg hidden on one of the pages...I suspect you won't find it though.
