Title: BrickGrave
Post by: Kamandi on 10 August 2015, 09:37:18 PM

Whilst I am painting up some new/old figures for FG, my son and I decided to give the rules a run using LEGO.
FG is good fit for LEGO - we customized our Casters and Soldiers, knocked together some ruins, and threw them down on a white table cover.

A great idea. I was always a fan of using Lego minifigs and terrain for wargaming and RPGs, although I never actually did it save for a single make-up game of Pirates vs. Government Forces during my childhood.

Here is a great overview for using Lego for such games:

I especially recommend further research on BrickQuest, there are handy tutorials for terrain and figure preparation, including ideas for basing.

One time, when I have the spare cash, I will go back to it... :)

Best of luck with your efforts!

Awesome! I've got loads of Lego (for playing Mobile Frame Zero) but not many minifigs or else I'd give this a try.

Black Falcons?  That's old school.  One of my first Lego sets was the Black Falcon's Fortress back in the '80s.

I love this... but I also love painting miniatures... oh what a terrible conundrum.
