The BrikWars Forums

They're like a Brikwarsy version of the objective cards from Warhammer 40K, only more entertaining! :twisted: Oh I haven't seen those cards, maybe I should take a look and steal some ideas. Looks interesting! What do those factions' classes stand for? The class system was a way for us to visualize ...

Sweet battlefield and a great battle! Gotta love that rancor. A lot of stuff from this battle is worth stealing. Do you have the full list of objectives somewhere? Thanks! Yeah I have my cards already uploaded here: Hi res cards Low res These are customised to the way we play so don't be surprised ...

Another fun game using objective based game play. As it turns out, there were lots of cards about harming poor Hans Moleman. First game in a while after my successful board game stint. Who know's, maybe we'll even play another! WRITE-UP DISCUSS ON REDDIT http://www.portablespacemuseum.com/wp-content...

Wooo! Mothership has been funded!

Can everyone who pledged from here message me to claim the community card pack? I'm gonna need to know how many to print.

We're live! If you back a copy of the game PM me in the forum for the FREE Brikwars community card pack.


Final artwork will be finished and posted soon! Thanks again to everyone who got involved!

http://www.mothership-game.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/launch-banner-550x440.jpg Just an update guys, I'm still going ahead with creating the community card pack! All on the short list will be added to the pack which should end up being an extra 20 cards. I'll update this thread when all the art...

How do we feel about purple, lime green, black and orange?

Sounds good to me.

Also:

EMP Pulse!

All players (excluding yourself??) discard their hand and re-draw.

Hey that's a good one, I'll put that on the list!

This colour blindness chart suggests that red and green would be a bad idea. Although I know it can vary depending on the shade of the colour, so the lime green in the renders might be OK. You'll probably want to get some plastic samples from your manufacturer and run them through some colour blind...

Lol ohhhhhh I see now how did I miss that!

Actually while we're on the subject of colours, what four colours would you guys like to see in the final game?

Having a rouge ship as you described would break the flow of the game a little I think. Can you think of any way to rework that?

But there already are rouge ships,see;

...how exactly are they rouge

And you've just made me realise my printed copy is still the 2005 rules thanks!

I like the escalation bonus rule because we have too many players in our group that only play defensively. Granted they usually win but boy it's annoying! The bane of all wargames. Are you using the Instant Benny rules? Deadly Ground is there to give offensive players a little help. Nope, can you l...

Yeah pacing is what lead to me making Mothership. I've played a lot of Brikwars (like you would a regular board game) and it just needs more help in that area. I think the podcast guys got it right; it's a problem that all miniatures wargames share, and I don't think I've ever found one that solved...

I appreciate that you tried to make it seem so fun. The best thing that you said was that you try to have the most fun even if you're losing. I...feel like the guys running the podcast were distinctly unprepared for the subject matter, though. Not just BW, but wargames in general. I'm not mad, thou...
