|
| | | Ever since the most recent BrikWars game, Shaun, Joe, Mike, and I have been discussing various issues with the BrikWars rules in general, particularly the Supernatural Powers supplement. Some of this discussion resulted in Mike actually changing the (...) (21 years ago, 24-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

| | | | | (...) I thought I'd chime in and do a couple small clarifications, but only to the 'suggested' rules so they're not set in stone: (...) Anything travelling through a Wormhole, energy or otherwise, arrives instantly. Anything being Beamed disappears (...) (21 years ago, 24-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

| | | | | (...) I'd suggest that this be changed - A unit shooting through the wormhole needs to calculate (in it's head) relationships between 4 objects: The shooter, the portal entrance, the portal exit, and the target. Add to this the fact that it's (...) (21 years ago, 25-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

| | | | | | (...) Actually, I think Dave meant to say: viii) Wormholes are not see-through-to-the-o...side-able, so aiming a weapon through a wormhole is not the same as aiming at the same object without the wormhole. There's nothing to stop you from (...) (21 years ago, 25-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, FTX)

|
| | | | | | | (...) hmmm... that's how I think, but that's not how it was explained to me. I will agree that if you can see the other end of the wormhole, and see your target, you should be able to do SOME aiming... but it won't be easy! (21 years ago, 25-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

| | | | | | (...) Actually, sorta. I had intended to *not* include the 'not' so that distance and speed relative to the attacker still applied as though the wormhole isn't there (since he has to look at the object *without* aid of the wormhole), but Dan's (...)

| | | | | Just out of curiosity, how come you NELUG types don't always cross-post these discussions about BrikWars games and rules to lugnet.gaming.brikwars? -The Rev. Brendan Powell Smith (21 years ago, 25-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

|
| | | | | | | (...) Have you actually read any of these discussions? There's no point in cross-posting. No one outside of NELUG could possibly be interested in rules minutiae at this obsessive-compulsive level of detail. For now I'm working under the operating (...)

| | | | | | | | | (...) I will not rest until turns take at least twice as long as they do now. I have not yet begun to broach the topic of wind resistance, for example. By the way, Mike: 4 pages of Ghoirboy stanzas and counting. Keep in mind each stanza is (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Hmmm...Well that sounds rather interesting to me. ;) I have not played before--I have expressed interest if I would be in the area--but from reading the initial post and followups I have to say that you guys are definitely fine-tuning the (...)

If you're looking for UBER bordom, I should post the publically verifiable random number generation algorithms we were coming up with. 2. Much of (...)

| | | | (...) Ooh, Ooh, I just thought of something. Hadn't we also specified for this game that any multiple bonuses (for attributes, damage, etc.) have to be reduced to D6's as far as possible? That is: +1 --> +1 +2 --> +2 +3 --> +1d6 +4 --> +1d6+1 +5 --> (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

| | | | | (...) Oh yeah-- I think I'd go for the 1st one, though admittedly I kinda flip-flopped between them in the last game, depending on whether or not the troop was suffering from a weakness or a strength. But I think I defaulted more towards the 1st (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

I think what I said in the original game is that you would never have more than a "+3" for any particular attribute unless it was then augmented further from some magical thing or what not.

The second option is correct. And don't forget you can increase your dice (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
