Info for folks: At the last NELUG meeting (5-15-01), it was suggested that an upcomming BrikWars game be set in a world of pumped-up past technology.

If you want to have magic as a part of your army, more (...)   (24 years ago, 17-May-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Well, ever since I heard it, I've been mildly obsessed with the idea of BrikWars: Steampunk. While I've got all kinds of ideas floating around, I want -nay, *need*- to know if the plan involves any of the more "fantastic" weapon ideas. Airships, (...)
