| (...) I'm going to try to make it, maybe with the co-general...er...wife. I've been whipping up some vehicles, and I'll *bring* the mech (but not use it - I'm not sure it's stable enough for a wargame). It really depends on the time - the wife has a (...)

| (...) Gah! And the fifth angel sounded his trumpet, and the fifth seal was broken, and Neil Silverman posted to Lugnet. :D I'm pretty sure it goes without saying that I will be there as well. I might even have a finished army or something. eric (24 years ago, 25-Jan-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

|
| (...) I can't help you with the piece you need (I don't think I have one of those in any color, although I could be wrong)- but the next "meeting" that I'm aware of is a BrikWars game. See: (URL) details. eric (24 years ago, 15-Jan-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
| | | | | Re: NELUG Jambalaya Box?
|
| (...) Thank you for the offer Jeff. I don't know what it's called so I'll do my best to describe it. . . The shape is a 4x4x1 multi-sloped nose piece, like the ones on the front of the 7140 x-wing. It basically has 5 sloped surfaces and two studs on (...) (24 years ago, 15-Jan-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

| | | | | Re: train show
|
| Actually I don't have any big issue with having some of the LEGO train sets in the layout. Some of the sets I rather like. I will admit that rarely have any of the sets of the past 3 years shown up as permit aditions to the layout, but the classic (...)

|
| (...) Since NELUG did this at the train show (along with showing off empty boxes for some sets), I'm relatively sure what Eric K is arguing against is showing off LEGO sets assembled and in the layout. I have to agree with him, there. eric (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug, lugnet.org.us.nclug, lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.trains.org)
