This isn't so much a full battle report as a before/after, but...

Image
The city of Mt. Brick.

Another view of the city

A number of shady characters roam the streets of Mt. Brick, such as:

Hooligans

Image
Image


The Mafia, who run Mafioso's Pizza and the corner gun stand.

Image
Image
Image
Image

Crooked cops

Image
Image

Crooked politicians, peering out the window of City Hall. (City Hall comes equipped with a secret sniper loft in the clock tower.)

Image
Image

Jeff the Girl, an immortal character of ambiguous gender who's stumbled upon a secret knife storehouse

Image

And last but not least, the Plainface Cultists, chanting deep in the bowels of Mt. Brick itself. The cultists abhor facial diversity, choosing instead to express themselves through headgear.

Image


This battle was the story of the cultist uprising. I played the Plainfaces and my brother played the townspeople. The cultists had the ability to resurrect townspeople corpses, replacing the heads with a smiley heads.

I should have taken more/better photos of the battle itself, but here's what I do have:


Image
The Plainface Patriarch dukes it out with Biker Bob on the side of the mountain, alongside a pile of corpses.

Image
Massive carnage in front of the mountain. My brother attempted to block the entrance to the lower cave by parking a bus in front of it, but cultists pushed the bus over and it eventually caught fire.

Image
Cultists swarm one of the crooked cops.


Anyway, to make a long story short...

Some sweet but tragically un-photographed moments:
-The half-Megablok, half-LEGO Ninja character seen above (on a skateboard) sacrificed himself, slicing the pylons of the overpass with his katana, causing it to come crashing down on both he and a number of cultists, including the Patriarch.
-The townspeople, in a strategic maneuver, destroyed the water tower, causing water to wash over the battlefield (which, in the end, served no purpose aside from awesomeness).
-Ten cultists gathered around the wharf and began chanting, which eventually summoned their giant robot. To their dismay, the robot fell in love with a beautiful woman and carried her to the top of City Hall, King Kong-style, only to have City Hall blown up by some demolitions experts.

In the end, the town was destroyed by the StarGeezers, a spacefacing race of old men who scour the galaxy for laxatives to consume and hooligans to exterminate. Those are their vehicles on top of the rubble in the final photos.

You sir are a true Brikwarrior! Nice battlefield (before and after the battle), a couple of more pics from the battle itself would give it more interest but its ok...

Looks great, I only wish I knew what had happened... I must now attempt to fill in the blanks with the powers of imagination... Cool.

Love the Old Geezer and Plainface factions.

Plainfaces...me and my friends have those with "plain face" as happyfaces, who brutally slaughter normal faces usually with short blades. Then they make them happyfaces. Happyfaces can get off from their body and jump into a new one...they can even control a car, robot, structure and all. Those happyfaces with eyebrows are weaker.

That was awesome. I love the humor. Plainfaces, Giant Robot love story, StarGeezers, the whole bit. This really embodies BrikWars, imho. Good job! :D

heehee... "Plainface cultists" snicker oh, I love that bit! Emerging from the cave to wreak havoc on the not-plain-face people, and the heads on stakes in the cave... :)

Awesome battlefield, and I love the plainface cultists. I also loved the giant robot love story, especially because I was looking at the After pictures, and thinking "Where the hell did that huge crashed robot-thing come from? :shock: "

I never thought I'd see the day an awesome report like this would be posted.
