The Battle of the Konvergence has reached its ultimate end, locking Blue Guy in eternal combat with the Four Horsemen of Ragnablok in the Kanon Ball singularity and driving a stake in the Nehellennium timeline. Minifigs are free once again to move about the universe and adhere to whatever level of kontinuity they wish.





Piltogg is back and he is looking to finish off his long running Quest of Piltogg saga with a bang.

From the wiki page:
The Year is BR 2,017. In the lull following the great Galatic conquests of the Immortal War and the subsequent AN-TA war the Brikmason’s carefully laid plans have finally come to fruition. For many years now, the Brikmasons have been infiltrating Star-Nations all over the Galaxy, they Control the Media, They are Owners of Major Corportations, They Control Mass-transportation, Industry, Agriculture, Energy-Production, and often even the Military. All this has gone on in secret for years, and only now are they choosing to use all of their influence and power to strike. They have cut ties with the star-nations they have stolen from, refusing to supply or produce the goods they normally do. TV stations now Broadcast “Fake News” Designed to influence the public towards the Brikmason’s way of thinking. Major Cities have had their Power Cut, angering millions. Food from Rural Districts is no longer transported into these Major Cities, causing starvation and Civil Unrest. And many Military factories and instilations have been sabotauged or taken-over as well, severely inhibiting these Star Nations from fighting back.

So we have a new war brewing and things might get hairy. Hang on to your butts people. This should be a wild ride.

In the heart of the metropolitan masterpiece known as the Twin Cities, Minnesota, a battle of epic proportions rages on.

“The Nazis find the holy grail and are shipping it back to Berlin on an armoured train, but the Allies, BrikThulhu cultists and Inquisition attempt to intervene.”

This battle is available to all weekend pass holders at the World War Brick convention, put on by our friends at Brickmania.

A couple of big Lego conventions are coming up for their second showings – Brickvention 2008 in Melbourne, Australia is less than two weeks away, and registration has just opened for Brickworld 2008 in Illinois in June.

As usual, Brickvention has both public and demonstration BrikWars events on the program, with prizes this year provided by Aussie Custom Decals, the official distributor of BrickArms in Australia.

Happy Halloween! And happy birthday BrikWars! Brikwars turns 11 today. Spoooooky!

Happy Halloween everybody!

I just got back home from a month of traveling, and what a month! It kicked off with NWBrickCon in Seattle, where BrickArms was showing off their new MP5 and PSG1 sniper rifle. I got a pile of the new items from BrickForge (formerly Red Bean Studio) right at about the same time; I’ll post further news and photos of all of these when I get a spare minute.

Ben Fleskes was up at the con doing demos of his new Lego strategy game – he hasn’t made any public announcement about it yet, but I from my play-through it was pretty cool indeed; I’m keeping an eye on his website for any news. I also had the chance to catch a quick lunch with Stephen Fisher while I was up there, who’s managed to beat me at every BrikWar I’ve played against him in the last five years or more.

Unfortunately anyone in my line of work knows that November’s the heaviest workload of the year, so it may be a little while before I have time to put up posts and photos for everything that’s going on lately – which means there’s also not a lot of hope for a printable PDF by Christmas this year; apologies to everyone who’s been asking. But keep your fingers crossed, you never know when I might suddenly get a free week off for Thanksgiving or something.

Lots and lots of new stuff going on at BrickForge
