BRIKWARS IS THE BEST GAME OUT THERE

brikwars has the best gameplay of any game ever, but it can't hold a candle to the enormose amount of scource material that warhamer stuff has or the realy large number of people who are willing to play games of it. (brikwars is very unknownz by the general public)

I do my best to publicise it. Especially, in PLUG (Portuguese LUG).

Awesome, my friend just bought some old stuff off of a family friend that used to play, and he got me some Dark Elder guys. I got about $88 worth of units for only $40.

I always wondered about getting into this but the whole painting thing is way over my head, also I heard a rumor that GW were gonna sell prepainted ones is this true?

I don't play, but for the sake of people who do play at hobby shops and things I hope not.

It would bring a whole bunch of people in who are not so serious about it and I think it would ruin the whole thing for them.

If that's true my already damaged trust in GW would dissolve completely.

It's a secret to everybody.

Nope I play them to Ultra space marines. But warhammer gets to expensive verry quickly and I don't have the time to paint them all.

Brikwars owns warhammer in so manny games.
In brik wars when your minifig gets ripped apart you laugh like hell, in warhammer when your minifig gets ripped apart you look sad and start searching for some glue.

You could say that about pretty much any of the armies. Dark Eldar have weak armour and they're really fragile, which is why all-out fighting isn't their specialty.

Yes,but i win in the Space marine army. I have a Crimson Fists Company mounted in drop pods. Six Tactical,two assault,two dev,Pedro Kantor and Honor Guard, Two dreads,stern guard vets, and a vanguard vet. I also have a thunder-hawk with al land raider redeemer. I do allot of apocalypse. This is all in drop pods. Everything can deep strike.
