The BrikWars Forums

So this will be my second attempt at a forum battle, this time a little more structured in hopes of simplifying things, last time I had a free for all with vehicles and such and it just became unmanagable given that I started a new career shortly after it began.


The following will be a 2 vs 2 infantry only battle in an urban setting. Teams are forced, no backstabbing!
One player on each team will control a platoon of regular infantry, and the other player will control a smaller specialist team of veteran units.
This will be a forum battle, but I will be asking people to contact me via PM on DISCORD for orders. Direct link to discord below, the pace of this battle may be fast or slow, a lot of things to consider

Briefing.

Location: District 15, Kurgan, Kazmazia, Kazmaz system, Obsidian Prefecture, Gold Sector.
Overview: The Kazmaz system has become by far the most war-torn of all the battlefields in the ongoing conflicts within the Galacian Empire. Loyalist and Pact forces have been duking it out all over the surface of the system''s main colony for months. And to make matters worse rogue Peach elements and Triangular State insurgents also rear their ugly heads into the battlefield on occasion. While no more today, Kazmazia was once Galacia's second largest colony. The city of Kurgan has been devastated by street fighting by the Galacian Ground Forces and mixed Maripol Pact elements of Zaphor Confederate and Volhinyan forces.

The battle in district 15 is just one of many going on in the city of Kurgan alone, With no tactical signifigance, the brass of both sides send more minifigs into the meat grinder in this war of attrition.







*All vehicles shown in this battlefield are destroyed or otherwise inert. Position of minifigs does not reflect their starting location.
GR Infantry will start in back left corner near white house.
GR Recon will start in the slums
KoV Infantry will start in the police parking lot
ZC Infantry will start where they are now.

There may also be small numbers of ZC and GR NPC infantry in play.

Overview


Points of interest, divided into 3 sectors
A word of caution, I may have put down too many of these pickups, I wouldn't advise making them your ultimate goal as they are all designed gameplay wise to be a high risk high reward item, and most of these stockpiles are HIGHLY EXPLOSIVE. You could easily lose your entire force if they were stationed too closely to an ordinance stockpile should it blow up.
For some reason the photos might be rotated. If you open the image in a new tab it will display correctley, its a forum issue

Sector A. Eastern





D-2 ZC Deployment, Tastyskippy
D-4 VK Deployment, Duerer
A-1 "The Melee", a number of GR and ZC troops came across one another point blank and a bloody hand to hand fight ensued. A few melee weapons lay scattered about, in the alleyway behind them there are two seperate ammo dumps, one with a number of grenades, plasma rifles and shotguns, and the other at the far end where a single plasma rifle sits on a box
A-2 "The Bar", a few shotguns are sitting in crates inside this bar, this was probably a barricaded position for civilians rather than military units as it serves little tactical purpose
A-3 "The Artillery Position" on the roof of a small shop and apartment building there is what's left of a rebel mortar position, The building has been pummeled to shit by Loyalist fire and is in danger of collapsing. A pile of ordinance on the roof just makes a collapse even more likely.
A-4 "ZC Supply cache" - a single grenade is here.

Sector B. Central



B-1 "The Bank", A Volhinyan tank was knocked out here and it crashed into a small bank branch, the building has since been looted. EXTREME DANGER Civilians had been stockpiling fuel supplies here before the fighting broke out in this district, It is unknown how many of these cannisters are still full, but should a stray round land into the stockpile it could cause an explosion large enough to take out half a city block. Proceed with EXTREME CAUTION
B-2 "The Street" multiple civilian vehicles have been shot up and blown up here, A shotgun fell out of a crate near the pickup truck
B-3 "The Park" A major Loyalist ammo dump, 5 or 6 grenades, a shotgun, a single use rocket launcher and a plasma rifle are all left behind here.
B-4 "The Truck" Another box of grenades was left behind near this Galacian Army Truck

Sector C. Western





D-1 GR Army deployment - Bann
D-3 GR Force Recon Deployment - RedRover
C-1 "The Carbomb" A carbomb took out this small pawn shop, a cache of 4 or 5 grenades and a shotgun are also stored here
C-2 "The Slums" A plasma rifle was left behind in the street here.

The first turn will be Bann / TastySkippy / RedRover / Duerer.
Waiting on orders from Bann.
