This is my version of a brikwars rts,


There are certain locations on the board, which must be clearly visible and defined to all players,except pedonuker, who has to guess where they are :P when any of your INFANTRY units enter this area, this location is now under the player to whom the unit belongs, place something (a flag,crest etc) on that location every turn, for each "strategic location" you control, you get a set amount of cp, starting the turn after you claim a location, remember, your enemies can capture locations that belong to you, so make sure they are defended.

This chart shows you what you can buy with your cp, but feel free to think up your own!


Outpost:40 cp,a tall tower where units can snipe from

Med-bay:165 cp,when any infantry unit you control dies, roll a d6, when you roll +5 that unit respawns there the med bay can take 10. Hits before being destroyed and has armor 4

Robot factory:200 cp,every turn the robot factory make 1 d6 robots, with the following stats, armor 4 long ranged weapon,skill:1 d6, note:robots made by the factory cannot capture strategic locations, every two turns roll another d6 seperatly, on a roll of six you can choose to pay 200 cp for a orange transparent robot, with a meleeand long ranged weapon, armor 12 and 1 d8 skill the robot factory has the same Health as the med-bay


This is all I have so far

Are you referring to the graphics? Or the actual game?

Yes, that would certainly explain why the BrikwaRTS you came up with is so unplayable.

Are you proposing a video game? It's kind of hard to do real-time games with figures on a table top.

I've played some real-time tabletop games, they're hilarious. I wish I could remember the names. Everybody does all their moves at the same time as fast as they can until somebody needs to resolve an attack and then they yell "Fire!" and everyone has to freeze whatever they're doing and resolve the attack. It's super chaotic and mirrors the confusion of war and C&C limitations because it's really hard to keep track of what the enemy's doing at the same time as trying to move all your troops around.

I would love to see rules of these games

Just play Brikwars with simultaneous turns, and do the same thing.

U guys don't get it, the turns are separate like normal, it's supposed to be brikwars with rts-like features

So you're saying it's turn based strategy.
Brikwars is turn based strategy.
So you're saying it's a more confusing and less fun version of brikwars.

I wasn't talking about your variant ruleset, Halo wanted to see a ruleset and I simply informed him that he already knew of one.

I like that you set completely arbitrary CP values for things like towers and medbays though. Seems real "thought out" :troll:
