Yes. That entire scenario would be boring, pointless ... and it would take
hours to do.

You know, this entire game opens up huge RPG adventures. We should try a
BrikWar event to be more "RPG-like." Build a Lego hero, and then use him to
squash little NPC's.... more like Dungeons & Dragons.
It would be easier to monitor unit HP that way, because there would be no more
then 8 -plus or minus a few- units fighting at one time..
