Re: Introduce yourself!
Race Bannon checking in...it's been a while! Love seeing the content...rulesets, pics., etc.
A short excerpt from the Pittana Brigade's clan chronology:
When Greebledotus set down in his Brikstories the ways of the ancient Kings, he referred one time; (the only time found in the literature) to a “Pittana brigade”. A group of warriors, fighters, and heroes; intent on the senseless slaughter of all who would oppose them.
Well, Greebledotus was right, and Brikthydices was a rich kid jerk. You know, like the kid in your class that had EVERY Star Wars™ figure? Even the ones that weren’t out yet, and had all the new ones before you even saw them in the LaBell’s™ catalog! And don’t get me started on his Hot Wheel’s™ collection, half of which have never even had the pleasure of being used as a flaming battering ram into the lesser minifigs!
Caveats aside, I’m here to tell of the Pittana Brigade, and their subtle and intricate history of proud warfare. They started out as part of some great war with some Brikdude named Leonidas, or something. But people still believed they existed then, so we really don’t know much about that time.
And besides, that harlot of history, Brikthydicies decided to write that there never was such a brigade; well the old folks folded their arms, tripped over their ottomans, and gave a collective “harrumph!”
We started out as many did, in the great Lego™ Wars (rule set was one page), and after months of searching online auction sites, two original cannons were secured. There were many complicated rules created and adapted for our special style of combat, using our old Pirate cannons, we couldn’t help to add rubber bands, of various widths and strengths to knockdown some of the more let’s say Voltronish of our adversaries. Eventually, both cannons ended up “lost”, although it’s the humble opinion of your pitiful historian that the Ultimate Evil Entity known in some circles as “The Couch” consumed them in a fit of chaotic rage.
Almost all of the early battles were assaults upon a mythical school and stronghold containing an inordinate amount of magic users, sorcerers, and precociously cute little kids. They would say things like “ello gubnuh”, with huge wide eyes as they ripped your entrails from your body. Not very nice, let me tell you (and in my modest opinion, worst Cockney accent evar). The Pittana brigade had never encountered magic before, and it was a good test of their technological superiority from a galaxy far, far, away.
By the by, the battles were so hard fought, and with so many rebuilds that they would last for days! Of course the Pittana brigade prevailed with that little known grown-up trait of “cheating your ass off”. A moral barrier for the good hearted illusionists of that harried school; but not fer the Pittana Brigade! We managed to slip in Joan of Arc, a bunch of ninja, and some samurai that were heretofore unseen on the battlefield.
Conquered and compliant, a relationship eventually began that resulted in the addition of magic to Pittana’s arsenal of weapons and defensive capabilities.
Now, we lie in wait for the prophesized return of the Great King of all. He is coming soon, and will be devastating! Tremble in fear, for your shivering warmth is all that will keep the extinct fires of your soul alight. This is Pittana!!
