If you know me you know I generally love building a Brikwars battlefield more than actually playing on it. Just a few gems I found on Flickr that I would love tear apart in the course of a long battle.

The last photo though is proof that still, messy battlefields are just as good and funnier.

Hello fellow Brikwarriors! Halloween Hellhunt only comes around once a year, so in an inspired attempt to recreate the magic and give us twice the awesomeness in a year, forum member Quantumsurfer roped some of us into another battle contest. The 2016 Rekon Kickoff is intended to be the Halloween Hellhunt on the other end of the calendar and we had some good submissions for the contest’s inaugural year. Congratulations to Silent_sigfig for the winning battle, The Bleeding Crown. The really cool thing about his battle was that it was done in Brikwars chat with other forum members bann154, Valiant, Kastrenzo, RedRover, and mgb519. All of the submissions were good reads and I wouldn’t expect anything less for next year, so mark your calendars!

It’s that time of year again! Halloween Hellhunt has just finished and it was a huge success this year. We had ten battles, which gives this year the second highest battle count of all time! The submissions are all very good and the scores were pretty close, but it was Kommander Ken who came out on top with his terrific battle, Chilled to the Bone. Pitting his Frostborne against an undead army he nailed this years theme of Skeleton War while creating a high quality battle that is incredibly fun to read. This year’s Halloween Hellhunt may be over, but mark you calendar for next year when we’ll do it all again. Until next time!

BrikWars turns 20 today! Still not old enough to drink (at least here in the States), but we’re celebrating as we do every year with another Halloween Hellhunt running from October 18 to November 7.

This year’s 2015 Hellhunt has been taken over by the Skeleton War, harbinged by our seasonal visitor, mr skeltal. Armies of skeletons are invading the ongoing battles and storylines, even attacking the forum members themselves, and so far no one has been able to stop them.
