 | | BrikWars question -- determining collision damage
|
|
Hi all I recently played a Brikwars game with my friends, but we were unclear on the collision damage rules. It was kind of a big point because if my friend lost his Giant Robot, then he'd be reduced to only a few infantry. We just fudged it for (...) (21 years ago, 12-Aug-03, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars)

Hi all, The GLUG contingent has returned from GenCon 2003. We are tired but wiser. I probably have more time than most considering everyone else is preparing for BrickFest 2003. But I, on the other hand, get to work. I am uploading the last of the (...) (21 years ago, 2-Aug-03, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars, lugnet.gaming, lugnet.pirates)

(...) The text files fit just fine in my $99 Palm m500. Depends on your budget though, the Palm Pilot screens are a little small - about 12x30 characters - so you might consider a laptop or one of those new tablets I keep hearing about. Maybe I (...)

You can always ask DaveE to tag along with you. He really knows the rules, all versions of them (he can even quote some of the flavor text) and has a very handy "search loophole" feature. Now seriously, or may be not so seriously, what about a (...) (21 years ago, 1-Aug-03, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars)

Well, since these rules have been released in pdf format, I think the only thing you need is: a PDA (iPAQ for example), PDF reader (I suppose it is available for those devices) and the main files.

Like any good acolyte in the church of Briwkars, I have a three-ring binder with all of the rules printed out, which I keep updated regularly. It is massive. 8 pounds, and probably about 10x13". When traveling, that's a lot of real estate to take (...) (21 years ago, 1-Aug-03, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars, lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Overall I think this is a very good idea. I've thought of doing something similar for BrikWars. I was thinking along the lines of a standard unit like train hobbyists use. This could be applied to buildings/bases/spaceships much like moonbase (...) (21 years ago, 11-Jul-03, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars, lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)

I've been thinking about Brickfest, and how best to play and enjoy Brikwars at Brickfest, without investing all of the free time I already don't have. And I've been building moonbase modules.
