Ross Fisher Posted January 23 Posted January 23 (edited) Your path takes you out onto the open ocean. Show us the vessel you're travelling on and what happens on your voyage. This prompt has been chosen with help from @evancelt, the winner of the first individual challenge. This prompt will be subject to the rules laid out in How to Play. The subject is open to your interpretation. Your MOC can be literally any size. You don't even have to include terrain if you don't want to. Feel free to build in microscale (or other scales as you prefer). Your ship can be part of a larger convoy, but please remember that Trrraversa and the new world won't officially be discovered for a couple of centuries. Also, remember that every player gets the chance to vote for their favourites. If you want that to include your build, think about how you'd get people to vote for you. To submit an entry, add your own thread topic under Tales of Old. Start the title with [FACTION - CH3]. Then, once that topic is published, link to it in this topic. Easy! Entries will close and voting will open on 9 March. Entries submitted after that date may miss out on votes from their colleagues. Players must belong to a faction before submitting an entry. Feel free to ask questions here or to your faction leaders. Edited Monday at 12:34 PM by Ross Fisher Deadline extended
Professor Thaum Posted January 26 Posted January 26 Is it possible to have a clear deadline (even if I think I will be out of bounds because of personnal schedule overloaded). At the moment I bet 28th of Feb. 2026 for entries, but I may be wrong.
Ross Fisher Posted January 26 Author Posted January 26 (edited) Apologies. I thought I'd included that, but it just said "in March". Thanks for the heads up @Professor Thaum! That's corrected. Edited January 26 by Ross Fisher

NOD Posted March 10 Posted March 10 I vote for: Best Story: @Ross Fisher Interesting, good, long and funny story. Best Build: @LM71Blackbird A very beautiful ship built with many details. Best Build and Story: @LegacyBuilder Well-built ship and interesting story.
Ross Fisher Posted March 10 Author Posted March 10 I'm voting for both @LegacyBuilder and @LM71Blackbird. Two fantastic brick-built hulls. They really fit the theme of our era.
Khorne Posted March 10 Posted March 10 My vote goes to @LegacyBuilder. Even though @LM71Blackbird's ship is smoother, I admire the dedication of LegacyBuilder to do it completely brick-built: hull and sails. Like I said in the topic, I like the story and hope to see it continued in the future. I concur with @Ross Fisher as well: all entries really fit the theme of the era. I liked seeing this exploration of a less typical nautical era.
LegacyBuilder Posted March 12 Posted March 12 I would like to vote for @LM71Blackbird. His build was very sleek and colorful. I also want to vote for @Ross Fisher for interesting minifigures and an enjoyable story.
Jeff of Clubs Posted March 12 Posted March 12 1 @LM71Blackbird this came together great. A close second for @LegacyBuilder. That ship is excellent but could profit from cladding tiles on top of the hull plates. @Ross Fisher I know you were struggling for time but it came out good!
LM71Blackbird Posted Sunday at 04:41 PM Posted Sunday at 04:41 PM 1 @Ross Fisher Great story and and I'm a suckered for builds with azure in them! Gotta get more of those. 2 @LegacyBuilder the hull turned out great and the brick bulls sails are a nice touch.
The Sarge Posted Monday at 04:00 AM Posted Monday at 04:00 AM I vote for @LM71Blackbird. Lovely ship, very fitting to the period. The colorwork with the 2x2 45 tiles really sells it. Honorable mentions to @Ross Fisher and @LegacyBuilder - also great builds and stories!
merc Posted Monday at 10:16 AM Posted Monday at 10:16 AM Great boats. Though my vote goes to @LM71Blackbird
Ross Fisher Posted Monday at 12:33 PM Author Posted Monday at 12:33 PM Voting is now closed. Thanks everyone for taking part. Congratulations to @LM71Blackbird for winning this round. A fantastic build, exactly what we were hoping for. Respect also is due to @LegacyBuilder for a quality build, which was winning the vote at times. We'll follow your career with great interest. We'll be in touch in due course to discuss the reward; choosing the prompt for the next individual challenge. For anyone who thought this would lead to a lull in proceedings; NOPE! @Khornewill be announcing the Joust any minute.
