Blox is a mod that will be based around Blox people (I would use the title of LEGO people, but i'm afraid of being sued) , who will fight wars, and both build, and destroy the cities of opposing armies. Do you remember when you were much younger and you played with LEGOs? Well, if not I do, and I hope to bring the enjoyment of building cities and fighting wars to the powerful Source engine, Imagine commanding your army to attack a city and destroy the outer wall brick by brick, or being ambushed and have pieces of your Blox soldiers being flung across the battlefield with spectacular Rag-Doll physics. I want to bring that fun and excitement to you, through this mod. In the next paragraph I will describe to you the basic gameplay mechanics of this mod...

In Blox, one person in the beginning of the match will be chosen to be granted the Position of Blox God (each side will have one) . The Blox God will have total control over his sides towns and army, will also view the game in an over-head view, almost like a real-time strategy game, he will be the one commanding his minions to build barracks, and many other structures to fulfill the needs of his civilization, another unique capability of the Blox God will be the Hand of Blox, which will allow him to pick up objects strewn throughout the world, imagine seeing a large-scale battle being fought halfway across the gameworld, and picking up a large boulder and tossing it across the gameworld and have it land on your opposing army and end up rolling over each soldier, and end up devastating half of the army. Sound like fun? Well with the mod Blox, it will be possible.

Next in line will be the Blox Commander (once again each side will have one) , who will be the field commander of his army, he will be the one on the battlefield telling his soldiers where to advance, and how to attack the opposition, he will see the gameworld throughout a third-person perspective, and will be able to call in air strikes and ammo drop-offs, etc. He will be able to fight in battles, but should stay to the back to avoid being killed, if he is killed, the highest ranking player beneath him will gain his position.

Then at the bottom of the ranks is the Blox Infantry, he will be the basic fighting force, (up to 16 will be able to play as the Blox Infantry) once again a player under this rank will see the gameworld through a third-person perspective, with the Blox Infantry will be three squad-mates, following to help out in battle against the opposing army (the three squadmates will be controlled by AI) . The Blox Infantry will have a varied arsenal of weapons such as rifles, machine guns, rocket launchers, mines, etc. Another gameplay feature of Blox is the inclusion of vehicles on the battlefield, these will range from Jeeps, Tanks, and the possibility of Aircraft (though it is still to be decided)

As you can see, this project is going to be large scale, and take a lot of effort from the mod team to be completed, because of that I will need team members for this epic mod. If you have any questions/comments or wish to join, email it to me at Afterburn3rsEmailAddress@gmail.com , Thanks for your time, and goodbye!

As you can see I have just got the ModDB portfolio for the half life 2 modification Blox up and running! Me and my team are in desperate need of a Web Designer, so if you can create a Website, EMail me or send me a PM, because I was forced to create a fairly basic Freewebs site, as I have no experience with Web Designing... If you do decide to PM me or EMail me, please show an example of previous work, or something showing that you have potential.

Blox has been in the planning stages for a while, and has just started development, I hope everybody here is interested in the main plot of the game. I, personally, believe it is fairly original from the rest of the generic shoot 'em up mods that clone counter-strike over and over :P (Don't get me wrong, I love Counter-Strike)

Thanks for your time!

Thanks for the comment, I believe that with the Source engine and the Havok physics engine that comes with it, Blox will turn out to be a very enjoyable experience. One more thing, if anyone hasn't read the latest news post or can see from our website, we need a web designer, I plan to put a Help Wanted up, but just to let you know, I'm desperate. I cannot do anything with HTTP or basic website creation, so if you can send an example to me, by EMail or PM

Not too original of a concept, but still a great one. There have been others like this, but I can't seem to recall a single one being completed. I'm sure you'll be able to pull it off with the Source engine though, good luck.
