(...) Seems a reasonable limit - you can squeeze a reasonable number of troopers and a vehicle or two in easily. It would also depend on the size of the playing surface, and the number of players. (...) Probably the easiest to field (Tech Level 5 (...) (23 years ago, 3-May-02, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) Previous battles have tended to be "bring whatever you want, well balance out sides on the day" rather than a preset limit. You'd be quite surprised how little 500 points will actually get you once you've included a decent tank or two (or (...) (23 years ago, 3-May-02, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) Mmmmm. This is a bit of a 'think carefully'. Our previous and most successful BrikWars have involved precious little hard calculation and waaaay more, "gee, wouldn't it be funny if...", in the true spirit of BrikWars, and using slug throwers (...) (23 years ago, 3-May-02, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) I'll agree to that...the only times I've played, we've had the same 'referee' who was playing against us, and somehow things didn't often go our way. [and the addition of off-field rocket-launches against our troops, when that area of the (...) (23 years ago, 3-May-02, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) Actually, the Brisbane model, as you put it, so far has been the most minimal rules and dice throwing possible and a lot of make-it-up-as-you-go stuff! But I think we need the rules just to have a proper game. I agree with the no stats no play (...) (23 years ago, 3-May-02, to lugnet.loc.au)

<sorry, i snipped everything else> I like the sound of your scenario, James. I reckon we should all just rock up with our army, some snow terrain and scientific modules and just work out all the fine points on the day. It'd prolly be easier... Zac (23 years ago, 6-May-02, to lugnet.loc.au)
