|
| | | Since we seemed to stress the fabric of BrikWars with a 250+ fig battle (regardless, nice work James Howse, Gamemaster and Grand Wizard of Probability) we did think a little on how this might go better. IIRC, the plan is something like: Medieval (...) (24 years ago, 7-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

| | | | | | (...) Hilarity is fairly important in my fun factor. I think grossly uneven (or at least very different) forces, surprises in the scenery and great big SNAFU siege weapons add a lot to the game. Otherwise, I'm happy with these suggestions.
