BrikWarsTabletop Tuesdays: Call it "Lego Little Wars" | Submitted by costik on Tue, 09/30/2008 - 00:05. |
BrikWars challenges you to take all the random Lego, Playskool, and other construction/little plastic toys you have around, and fight battles with them -- with a clever set of rules that encompasses the basic tropes of the hardcore miniatures game, but with an unusual "rules are made to be broken" slant.
In each level of Stealth Combat, you control a vehicle, ranging from an armed jeep to a Star Wars-like walker. Often (but not always) you have a variety of subordinate vehicles you can issue orders to. Each mission has a series of objectives--and generally, the other side has enough firepower to wipe out your entire force if you just charge in firing blindly. Which is where the "stealth" aspect comes in; this isn't quite Thief for vehicles--combat is often necessary--but succeeding typically requires a degree of finesse as well as mastery of the combat UI.
