The BrikWars Forums

So any options to escape the cuffs? I suppose an ally could try to damage them...

How's this?





A bit pricey in CP, I know...

So for calculating base CP value (Size x Structure Level) do we just split the difference and treat it as an SL3?

So does grenadier+multitasking=unlimited explosive spam? At first, I misread this line as: So does grenadier+multitasking=unlimited explosive orgasm ? That's what I get for reading BrikWars forums when barely awake. Though in all fairness, that is probably what anyone with infinite grenades would b...

Half Minds ... A Programmed Creature is limited in its ability to make complex strategic decisions, and instead follows a simple set of behaviors. Simple Creatures are given a list of behaviors at the beginning of the battle, and may only behave in accordance with those instructions. A Simple behav...

Not even if the minifig is Iron Man?

12. Instead of having to take an action, squads can just form up willy nilly, without officers. In exchange, as long as officers perform a combined action with their squadmates, all squad members have at least 1d8 skill. There's a few other re-toolings of how squads are gonna work, but most of them...

102: yup 103: ranged attacks can't be parried, under normal rules. I make an exception when it comes to beamswords and laser shots, in which case I indeed just use the shield/weapon's UR. The lightsabres beamswords/blasters thing makes sense. But in regards to the "block a grenade with a shield" th...

If I remember right, a feat is something completely separate that only heroes get, and isn't considered an "action" proper. 102. Wait, so a Hero can use his Feat and a regular action all in one turn? 103. When parrying a projectile/explosive missed shot, what do you roll against? Just the UR of the...

But in all honesty, I'm most critical when I suspect someone's trying to either a) twist the rules to get as much of an unfair advantage as possible, or b) make something needlessly complicated instead of using a simpler rule that already exists. Fair enough - but know that I've been around the blo...

101. If both players roll a one in the Heroic Feat Roll, it's a special case - the Hero has failed to accomplish his Feat, but his opponent has failed to oppose him. Rather than try to unravel this Heroic Paradox, the Heroic Feat is cancelled - the Hero suffers from a moment of uncharacteristic sani...

So this whole "Guideline-Book" Sub-Forum is really more for arguing about whether or not we should argue about the "rules" in the first place?

It's still two separate attack rolls, which is HUGELY superior to one attack roll of double damage. Wait, why is two separate attacks superior to one with double damage? That's a good question. I can see the dual guns being more advantageous in minifig combat, but 2 peashooters vs. a tank isn't goi...

half-turn? I think you're still missing the point. Let me break it down: In any given turn, a minifig (or anything with its own mind, really) may use up to their movement in inches in one turn, and ONE SINGLE ACTION such as making an attack, reloading a weapon, or otherwise interacting with the env...

It seems like every third question of yours revolves around the concept of "I WANT MY GUY TO SHOOT A BUNCH OF TIMES IN A TURN, WHAT ABOUT THIS EXCEPTION" when it's literally a 2 CP ability to allow exactly that. Hell, if you're not playing with CP (like good brikwarriors should), you can simply dec...
