new BrickFest event idea "Castle: Total BrikWar"
Posted: Fri Jan 14, 2005 9:46 pm
The idea came to me after watching some video of a game I've been wanting to get but won't until an expansion pack comes out along with the original. The game is ROME: TOTAL WAR.
Im sure many of us has seen this game with its massive army battles. For those who haven't had the pleasure... take a look here:

Now you see where the name comes from. And as such I think the event/game should live up to such a name.
Now here's the idea, basically this will be the event version of the Battles Contest. It won't be simply displaying army battles on nice little scenery, but rather several Castlehead AFOLs teaming up to engage in a massive Castle army BrikWar against one another during BrickFest or any other Lego convention events. Two people with 50 minifigs each can team up against a guy with 100 minifigs, so that way it won't end up being so uneven.
Come on guys, admins, its time we get our own Castle version of "evil stevie's pirate game" during these AFOL convention events.
BTW, it would also be a good idea to use toothpick and color paper to make flags to determine which minifig soldier belongs to whom. Unless the minifig has a totally unique look that others will recognize as the design of a particular AFOL.
