Hey guys, I'm in the middle of planning a Brikwars game, but I need some advice
from some of the veteran players. How big of a game is too big for say a 3-4
player game ( maybe 3-4 hours in length ). I'm planning a 6x6 baord right now (
using the green 32x32 baseplates ), but I'm wondering if that's too much space.
Also, what size should the armies be so everyone has a chance, but it doesn't
become bogged down too much. My initial feeling was 30 per army. But my thought
was also that if someone took a bad loss, they might be eliminated from the game
almost immediently. Anyway, any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

BTW, anyone in the DC, MD, N. Va area is welcome to join in. We're still locking
in a date, but it looks like March 7th right now. We're also considering a TL2
game. Questions, Comments, snide remarks.. all welcome :)

(...) If the players are all pretty new, aim for squads of around three or four units, maybe three Troopers and a Hero each, and a pretty basic weapons loadout. A cap around 30-50 CP should give players enough room to sweat over whether to burn (...) (20 years ago, 13-Feb-04, to lugnet.gaming.brikwars)
