The BrikWars Forums

I can't find any battles open at the moment, so I'll start one of my own. The sign-ups will take place in this thread.

This will be an adventure campaign were each player (instead of playing a single hero or an entire army) will play a small band of minifigs, adventuring parties if you will, to explore a newly discovered, uncharted territory in the 'verse. Each faction has sent one of these parties to ruff it out in potentially lethal environs. Neutral parties are bound to emerge, but whether or not you are one is up to you. Now go, go out into the unknown.

Each party much have the following:
Party Lead: Preferably a self-insert, must be designed using the standard brikwars rules and supplements. May not cost more than 100cp including weapons and SupernaturalPowers.
Party Members: Five minifigs divided among any number of unit types whether own idea or someone else's, pre-made or made on the spot. Put together the 5 may not cost more then the lead.
Party Sponsor: Your alliance, or neutral if you are a neutral party. Each faction gets a exclusive bonus, and may be relevant latter in the game. But as I am not as experianced w/ the faction of the known 'verse I'll let you decide what that bonus is. Look here for inspiration, http://www.brikwars.com/forums/viewtopi ... =6&t=10820. Neutral parties get a secret bonus that we'll be revealed latter.

I'll make mine in a bit, just posting as a reminder.

Cool, first player. Just remember that this is taking place in my person mindscape, so don't be surprised if you see space marines using fairy wands or a wizard w/ a rocket launcher.

Well, it sure wouldn't be Brikwars otherwise!

I'm not sure what I would want to come up with, so I'll get back to you if I come up with any ideas in time.

You can always just go w/ cookie cutter regiments from your chosen faction, but the hero/leader should be a well thought out character.

I will probably make one but I want to see someone elses first to get an idea of how it should be done.

It should be done the same way you would make units for a regular game of brikwars, but to clarify I'll post an NPC group.

(( This is the guy that sends you on the exploration mission. ))
Admiral Jusqii Nirve
Skill: 2d8
Move: 8"
Armor: 1d8

Dej Nirve, Undying Heir
Skill: 1d10
Move: 5"
Armor: Special
Specialities: Heroic Ego (Space Lich Cliche), Beloved Son (Dej and Jusqii do not cause each other to get cranky, other units w/ Heroic Ego will make both cranky as normal.), Space Lich (Dej must take Space Lich as his Heroic Cliche and may not take any others. Dej has an armor value starts at zero which means all damage dealt is considered overkill. He may not reroll armor rolls nor may his armor value be change in anyway except by this ability. Dej may not be prevent, negate, reduce, redirect or otherwise alter in a way that deals less damage to him damage dealt to him and no one can do so for him, not even the most devote will red-shirt on his behalf. Luckly, they don't need to, for on his next turn Dej will rise again as long as his phylactery is intact, when he rises his armor increases by 1 and he gets a bonus to skill rolls equal to the amount of overkill he was most recently dealt. the phylactery has an armor value of 5d10.)

Nirve Squadies (X4)
Skill: 4d8
Move: 4"
Armor: 4d8

I dunno, your stats seem underpowered.

I made them on the spot. I didn't have any of the material w/ me at the time, but I'll rework them as soon as I can get my stuff to properly craft a good character.

Can I join?

Quick question: Can I run Two "parties" that are both out to kill each other?

I was thinking of having an "Azure Heaven Sedition" group with a "Hiksos Star Empire" assassination team following them and both sides trying to do the other one in. The Hiksos are an 'Immortal-Ally' and the Seditionists an 'Anti-Immortal' group: putting them permanently at odds with each other, and keeping the two main sides balanced.

Is that OK?

Sorry for not being around lately, my computer broked out, but for some strange reason only my ability to log in was affected. It;s fixed now and I'll be posting more frequently.

I'm already giving you more then one character, which is stretchin it by TRPG standards, so no. You may have a copious amounts of infighting among your group though.

6. will you build these armies to our specifications?
7. how will this play out? special rules and such?
8. do you want pictures of a force or no?
9. role playing if so how, how are you running this?

AAAAHHHH!!!! I completely forgot about this, w/ summer college and all. I'm sorry for any inconvenience I've caused.

6. Not entirely sure. If I can I might, but if not, that's what Photoshop is for. (see No. eight)
7. It's going to be an anything-goes game, but I would like you to run it by me first If you want to use it.
8. YES! Picture will pant a more accurate image of the minifigs, especially since I don't have too many myself.
9. I'm going to try and run it like D&D, but w/ less crunch and more story. Beyond that I'm not sure if I fully understand the question.
