The Fifth Annual Halloween Hellhunt overview thread

Away from the large scale LDD spaceship battles of the Sci-Fi brikverse, several active forum battles have been happening on a smaller, more medieval scale. The planet of Medivo, with its technology-breaking plot atmosphere, has been host to a number of active conflicts.

In the naval battle You can’t Escape the Miles, by Scratch, a group of nobles on their way to war are waylaid first by undead pirates, then by a giant spiney dragon.

You Can’t Escape the Miles: Turn 7

Carved In Stone, By Bragallot, is the story of a rag-tag coalition on its way to besiege the fortress of the Necromancer, Phinius, and who have to fight their way through the undead defense forces. Meanwhile, a failed Heroic Feat on the Woad Elves’ part causes an enraged eagle to set his sights on their hero.

In Retaliation, by Zahru II, the Empire of Northeros (paradoxically ruled by a King) is under siege by the invaders of the Falx Republic, an aggressive civilization that gets around the tech barrier by traveling between worlds using portals. The Empire’s forces have been rallied under the Crown Prince, and are attempting to push them back through the portal they came from.

Judging has concluded on the second annual Halloween Hellhunt battle report contest, and Killer Karetsu’s “The Battle at Brikpass” has come out on top. The forces of both Count Shinypants and Dark Lord Krag Hag had the poor luck to be traveling through the Brikpass on the same day, and slaughter inevitably ensued.

Battles were judged by a team of five judges for a potential five points based on five categories: Gameplay, Photography, Violence, Writing, and Overall Appeal. These were combined, through mysterious Halloween math, to add up to a maximum potential score of 16. How does that work? Not even the judges know for sure.

Halloween Hellhunt – Annual Battle Report Contest

Killer Karetsu’s “The Battle at Brikpass” – 14 points

mgb519’s “Ambush Valley” – 13 points

Zahru II’s “The Dig” – 13 points

AlphaFalcon541’s “Last Stand on Raider Valley” – 12 points

Falk’s “Operation: Beachhead” – 12 points

BrickSyd’s “The Happy Ending Treason” – 12 points

Jodokast’s “Battle of Champions II” – 9 points

Sjosten’s “Desert Strike” – 8 points

Every week for the past month or so, Rev. Sylvanus is playing BrikWars with some friends down at Redcap’s Corner game shop in Philidelphia. On April 30th there will be a tournament, so if you live in the area you should check it out. This weekend’s battle was a grudge match between Rev’s OOF and dirtycajun’s Horror Corps. They’re fighting over a mysterious pod that crash-landed in a pond at the centre of the field. Who will win? Check the links below for this battle report and others.

ForlornCreature posted an awesome battle report of a fight between the infamous Deadly Space Men and their sworn enemies, the Futuron. The Futuron trick the DSM into allowing them to land near their gas mining operation, but getting to the field doesn’t make you win the fight automatically. Read Forlorn’s first battle report to find out who will prevail.
