Yeah, ships make things go "boom." Bigger ships make bigger "boom."
Nuff said.

Hopefully that was vague enough to keep "Ship Scale Wars" out of this thread.

I actually think that a midi-scale brikwar would be pretty cool. A minifig could be a 1 x 1 cylinder piece. So you would get all the basic rules of brikwars, but without the need for huge armies of minifigs or huge tanks and fighters.

But it's not even limited to fleets, with such a large scale (large as far as mini goes) it could lead to a total nanobrikwars. It would certainly make ACs and tanks more usable for us regular builders.

Exactly. My point was that we already have rules for all that stuff... kind of.

Holy poop! Why do you all wish to make even more complicated rules than the rules that already exist? We already have a game with rules for all of this, it's called BrikWars. Just change every instance of inches into a certain amount of studs and you're all set. I don't see the problem.

And? It's not like you need to make special rules for everything just because it's smaller. Just tone everything down if you need to.

But if you're going to be playing midi, you can still have the equivalent of minifigures. If everything else is toned down so a regular jeep has an armor of 1d6, what's a minifig going to be?

That ruleset is actually made by Rayhawk, but it is still under construction.
