Grakul Posted May 20, 2008 Posted May 20, 2008 (edited) This is a solo battle I'm fighting, using the Brickbattles system. (I'm sorry for the low picture quality, I use my cell phone.) The pirates face the Crown Colonists in a battle on the high seas, for the treasure of Isla Verde... Forces Both sides have 10 minifigs, one of them with a hero point (the captain) and a ship. Rules amendments I had to improvise quite a lot of rules for this battle. If anyone is interested in them please tell me. The ships are deployed, "Sail ho!" The pirates´ Impaler and the colonists´ Sentinel. Isla Verde Turn 1 The ships set sail and head for the island and the treasure. The stupid pirates fires their cannon, but it's way out of effective range. Turn 2 Not much happened here, the ships manouvre closer to the island. Turn 3 The colonists land at Isla Verde, but the pirates are closing in. The cannon is fired, causing no major damage on the Impaler. A colonist kill a crocodile. A cannon shot from the Impaler flies right over the head of this lucky fellow. Turn 4 The Impaler rams the Sentinel, and the pirates begin to board! Two pirates jump into the water and swim for Isla Verde, while the colonists charge the remaining crocodile. The Impaler's cannon only succeed in blowing off some railing, but it's ramming spike causes a hit on the Sentinel. At the Sentinel's deck, the pirates kill a colonist. In return, the crown captain slays a pirate with his bare hands! The colonists kill the remaining crocodile, but the Sentinel's cannon misses the pirates in the water. Turn 5 The Sentinel move away from the Impaler, but it gives pursuit and rams again. The colonists on Isla Verde prepare themselves to take on the swimming pirates. The colonists kill the last boarding pirate. The cannon on the Impaler finally does something useful, killing a colonist! Turn 6 The Sentinel keep moving away from the Impaler. Two more pirates arrive at Isla Verde. The colonists move onto the treasure mountain, and shoots one of the pursuing pirates. And finally, the Impaler's cannon fail to destroy anything of greater importance. Turn 7 coming soon Edited May 22, 2008 by Grakul
Joey Lock Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Sorry but thats Extremely unclear Photos, are you using a Webcam? Try getting a Cheap Camera for around £70 or something.
Grakul Posted May 22, 2008 Author Posted May 22, 2008 I use a cell phone. And I couldn´t use a camera even if I had one, because I don´t have a computer with Internet access. This whole thing has already been discussed in the Crown Colonists thread, so look there if you want more details about my situation.

Sir Dano Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 How did you type this if you have no Internet? There's this wonderful thing called a library. It has public computers that anybody can access the internet on.
Grakul Posted May 29, 2008 Author Posted May 29, 2008 Is anyone still interested in this? This costs me money to do, and I'm not going to continue if nobody's interested.
Grakul Posted June 2, 2008 Author Posted June 2, 2008 I'm afraid you posted that too late... the battle is over. But I can tell you what happened. The Sentinel keep sailing around the island, chased by the Impaler. The colonists on the mountain take the treasure, while those on the Sentinel shoot the pirates on the island. Eventually the colonist with the treasure makes a heroic leap from the mountain onto the Sentinel, his buddy getting killed by the pirates. The Sentinel sails off, but the pirates aren't giving up, despite there only being two left! The Impaler rams the Sentinel repeatedly, and the pirate captain boards, but gets killed. The last pirate keep ramming the Impaler into the Sentinel, and sinks it! The colonists are thrown into the water, but swims to the Impaler and board it, killing the last pirate and taking control of the ship. Then they sail back to the colonies with the treasure and much fame and glory...
pesgores Posted June 8, 2008 Posted June 8, 2008 Too bad the last part didn't have any photos...but i loved it!
iamded Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Aw man, it appears I was a tad late for this. Great battle anyway! Dragonator and I were planning on having a BrikWars battle, it looks really fun! ~Peace
Grakul Posted June 17, 2008 Author Posted June 17, 2008 I looked at the Brikwars rules, but they were just too complicated. I used Brickbattles because I read the rules five years ago and still remember them!
Capn Frank Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 Aw man, it appears I was a tad late for this. Me too. I'm glad to see the Crownies made out with the treasure. Thanx for post this Grakul. I liked it.
