Big thanks, as ever, go out to Mike Rayhawk, who took the original Lego Wars
and expanded it into BrikWars, and has diligently kept it up and expanded it
over the years.  My Friend Neil- not a Lego friend, but a gaming friend- and I
were discussing BrikWars after the event and were amazed at how simple yet
customizable the system is, and how of all the battle sims we've played (and
that is quite a few), BrikWars is by far the most rewarding.

You guys are too kind.  BrikWars is just bits and pieces from a million other
wargames.  Anything original in there is just jokes and gags, and ideas that a
couple dozen other people sent in e-mails.  The only difference between
BrikWars and all the games that got hacked up and remixed to make it, are the
Legos.  Of course a game with Lego building is going to be more flexible and
rewarding than the same game with lead miniatures or cardboard cutouts, it
hardly needs saying.
