Just wondering...Is there anywhere that has a list of stats for any of

If this hasn't been done, I was wondering if these sorts of figures
could be put together on the brikwars site, as they would help get
people into brikwars using their own LEGO sets, and lead into them
eventually building their own vehicles.

I think this is a great idea. It would be very useful helping new players
get into the game. My friend is making a Shell Combat Team that is
deployed from the little Shell-type dragsters. He was just asking me
about this very thing, seeking stats for the dragsters.

It's something we've looked at every now and then, but so far it hasn't really
flown.  There's any number of ways you can stat the same vehicle, and that makes
me a little leery of setting anything in stone for specific sets.  But more
importantly, for legal purposes I can't do anything to make BrikWars appear too
LEGO-specific.  It's always a balancing act, I even try to be careful about
making too many references to LEGO-only elements.  'Fortunately' the clone
brands are catching up all the time.

I am trying to work more examples into the reformats than were in the text
version.  I'm finding I can pump out rulebook illustrations pretty rapidly
nowadays, as an unexpected bonus of drawing LEGO bricks as a full-time job for
the last couple years.
