How do I post pics of my armies in The Armoury? Is there a site I can upload them to, to get an url?

You need to use a image hosting site like imgur, photobucket, or Flickr. After you upload you should be able to get the text you need. I'm pretty sure there is more info in the new people section under taking pictures

Hey RedRover, I've tried posting images with the url between [Img] using both Flickr and Imgur and still just getting the word Image.

The studs on their bases are their life points. I know BrikWars does not have hit points, but I really like the idea of having life points. If I had vehicles they would get studs for armor points. These are some minifigs I threw together at the last minute for my kids. I have an army coming that will hopefully be something not anyone has ever seen before!!!

Copypasting the "default" flickr link for your pic is not enough - you have to either select [share] and then look for the BBCode option and copy that link for your posts, or select 'all sizes' from the download photo tab and right click the image to get a direct url that can put between .
I fixed your first image, the second link 404s on me.

Cool stuff, can't wait to see some more.

By the way, you'll be happy to know that Brikwars does actually have hit points. I'm not sure if they're in the rulebook yet, but most heroes have three hp, and some heavy infantry have two hp.

That is not an official thing, that is home-brew rules.

True, but a lot of people use it, probably more do than don't.

Hey Zahru II, Thanks for fixing my 1st link. I found the BBCode, yeah!!! Also thank you for the info for the heads up on the hit points. I had Merlok clocked at 8 HP (I was trying to make him all-powerful, being he is a wizard and all). Now that I know that Heroes normally get 3 HP, I will knock him down to 4 HP. I am trying to use as much LEGO as possible before I branch out to knock-off brands. Lastly, thank you all (RedRover, Zahru II, & TheVengefulOne) for being so helpful. It is really great that there is a community for LEGO Wargaming, etc...
