(...) I could handle the programming (result would be an open-source GUI app for Mac, Windows, and Linux), but as I've never yet played BrikWars, I'd need a bit of hand-holding on the requirements and logic. Best, - Joe (20 years ago, 29-Aug-04, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars)

Dave Eaton and other programmers, come to our aid! Dave's Troop Scorer is great! We love it. But we need a half-decent vehicle scoring program. "Please help me, Obi-Wan, you're my only hope." Aaron and George (20 years ago, 28-Aug-04, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars)
