 | | Portable Patented Plastic Building Block Bot Building game P3B4 —James Casey
|
| | | I have written a draft set of rules for a lego game. This was born on the thread about Jon Palmer's portable tackle box bot building set, but I thought it deserved its own thread. I think this should be the deep link for it: (URL) here after (...) (22 years ago, 25-Nov-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.gaming)

| | | | This is neat! The rules you started a great. If I were to play this game I would include hidden placement of sensors and mines. I would also as a beginner player set up sets of player parts that are the same but in different color configurations. In (...) (22 years ago, 25-Nov-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.gaming)

| | | | (...) Thanks! (...) Nice idea. How would you see them working? (...) I like this - sort of like the factory "evolving" as it wins battles. This would be even more important if the colour based bonuses were introduced (red fire melts white ice etc.) (...) (22 years ago, 26-Nov-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.gaming)

| | | | (...) This all could be added to an optional rules section of the rule book. I am looking at this game from a miniatures wargaming perspective as opposed to a card game. Some wargame minis are played on hex maps which I would probably use if I (...) (22 years ago, 26-Nov-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.gaming)
