A difficulty with Brik Wars.......

[Colette]

I kinda feel the same way about my vehicles, having a horrible memory and typically lumping the pieces together in very inconvenient ways. While slightly smaller vehicles can be broken into easily re-assemblable pieces, anything bigger or more complex, like my SHIP or super-tank, is pretty much a propaganda point and never used in combat.

As far as minifigs go, the only named ones in my army are President Colette and Admiral Angela, the latter being the only one having a backstory. It really isn't a backstory as simply the fact that she attended a lot of Trattoria's important "events", so I have no problem maiming, mauling, and murdering my soldiers. The only mini fig I have any connection with is my own, sigfig, for obvious reasons.

Fuck you. Seriously. Fuck you. Get the fuck out of here and choke on diarrhea you little bitch. I will kill you and they will not find the body.

heh-heh-heh, thanks Silva.

Anyway...

@WN: You need to study the old testiment and all that smiting milarky that went on before the bible got all fashionable and people got all upity and questioning and whiny later on and went about changing it to apeal to the mass market. God, if there is one would be a massive Brikwars fan according to any of those stories. Just kick ass for Jebus!

Silverdream, seriously you need to find a new shtick. This one is so very tired it is rather boring.

I'm not worried about reassembling my MOCs as I get to do that all the time because I'm a clumbsy clot and either drop them or send them spinning off the table or shelf they're displayed on. I managed to wipe out the entire White Sector navy the other week and they're all still in the shipyards being set to rights again.

No it's the thing about identifying too closely with my minifigs and getting mixed up with the idea that I'm actually really killing something. I am being silly of course and I'm sure I'll get over it after the first couple of dice rolls.

Forum battle now, so we can force you to accept the truth that minifigs love battle.

Some idiots who don't understand irony. A remake of All Quiet On The Western Front into an adventure movie.

Like all toys, minifigs exist for the sole purpose of getting themselves killed in the most entertaining and gratuitous manner possible. You want to see castle guys get blasted by space cruisers? Sounds great! You want to watch sea pirates do battle with assault helicopters armed with laser-guided stealth buzzsaw sharks? Go right ahead! These are the battles that BrikWars was made for. Minifigs are not bothered by their own grisly deaths, because they’ve seen so many of their brothers and friends die in similar fashions and they know how hilarious it is. Also, unlike green army men (who tend to get melted) and action figures (with their unfortunate affinity for getting blown up with firecrackers), a minifig’s later reincarnation is almost assured, either in whole or in distributed parts. Hideous disfigurements and glorious deaths are the high points in an existence otherwise spent lying around bored in box of unused bricks.

So if for no other reason, you owe it to the poor guys. Inject a little joy into their lives by slaughtering huge numbers of them.

I feel a quote from the rulebook and the above picture is just what you need at a time like this.

Carry on.
