I *need* to see this vaunted BrikWars rule set--it sounds
fascinating! Yet another reason I'm upset not to be in Oz,
as if the monsoons we're having here in the NYC Metro Area
aren't reason enough--I'm greenly envious reading of all
this planning! :(

Here comes Neighbourly Gesture Part II (read: selfishness): I
need unprinted large dkgrey slope panels, and I have plenty
of printed ones I'd be happy to trade for them (even all the
way to Australia from here in the YooEss!). I'd rather not
have to Brasso mine off if I can avoid it, especially when
other worthy people need more stone ones. Same deal with the
revolving door panels. I have little use for Ninja-decorated
elements, and unlike with UFO panels, I just feel smarmy buffing
them blank.
So if you want to swap yours out, consider me your Man On The
Other Side Of the Pacific. (Not confidence man, just the
regular upstanding sort, etc etc.)

PS: Update on Gesture Part I: I don't think we have Shell
Stations in this part of the country--I will have to check when
I go home to Detroit, we have them there.
