I was actually sitting around yesterday trying to come up with a way to do a
convention type Brikwars. I think I came up with a game that could be do
able, but of course I'll need to test it first. So if anyone is up for
doing a weekly/monthly Brikwars match, we could then work out the details
involved.
Things I need to figure out:
-create missions of the game that will take only an hour to complete
-simplifing the troops so newbies can use them easily
-designing a scenery that adds to the excitement of the game

| Actually, didn't Rayhawk run something small-scale and objective-oriented at BricksWest? It's probably on his site... I'd love to help, but I'm no good for a weekly match. I can brainstorm, though. I'm already seeing a squads of space troopers (...) (23 years ago, 30-Apr-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
