I was wondering what types of science fiction was allowed. For example, my Orks are fairly post-apocalyptic in design, would they be allowed?

I've started my build, and I'm taking heavy inspiration from XCOM in my faction.

I'm happy to see that a lot of people are planning to participate. I think the theme of the event fits brikwars concept very well.
