Mega Bloks Spartans vs. your mom

Post by **stubby** » Sun Jan 31, 2010 10:16 pm

I was cooking up some images for some new rulebook stuff and discovered that the Halo guys make some pretty funny little troopers if you put Lego heads on them. They're still tough to play with, since the heads and limbs tend to pop off the badly-molded ball joints whenever you least want them to.

It takes some work, I had to wrap a tiny scrap of electrical tape around the MB ball-shaped head mounts in order to make them better cylinders for the Lego heads to stay on.

(The background character there is to show that your mom is so fat that the MB guys get an attack bonus.)

Cool, but what sort of chapter would this be in?

Explanation of why the Spartans get a bonus to their use because your mom is so large.

Not to give away what I'm working on or anything, but I'm expanding Chapter 7 into several chapters. This is going into Chapter 8: Weapons.

'Arc Example: Your Mom' wrote:Example: In order to save the world's dwindling supply of fried chicken and sausages, soldiers have been sent back from the future to attempt to curb your mom's caloric intake. The flamethower trooper prepares to open fire on her from a short distance away, spraying flames across her corpulent body with an Arc of 2.

When the troopers' player splays his fingers to measure the Firing Arc, your mom is so fat that she spans the entire Arc between his index, middle, and ring fingers. The flamethrower trooper will attack her once because she's in his Firing Arc, and twice more for the two full points of Firing Arc that she spans, for three attacks total. A smell like frying bacon is strongly expected.

Your mom is so fat that the trooper also gets a +2 Size Bonus to the attack, because her giant belly is over four inches wide. This perfectly cancels the -2 Auto Penalty for the trooper's Firing Arc of 2; he'll make his three attacks with his regular unmodified Skill.

Just a question (but it's THAT question) When's the new rule book coming out? halloween this year?

It's not a new rule book; it's an addendum.

Finally. Flamethrower stats! Hail to the overlord!

But jeez, is it even possible for a minifig to consume that much food? Hrm.

Pffft. Everyone knows that Stubby/Rayhawk live in a different universe, and that Brikwars is just daily life there. The Internets allow him to cross dimensions.
