Bayonets at Dawn

[Capt. Stabbin]

Are we allowed to use backgounds of any kind in this contest? Just wondering.

[Joey Lock]

What parts would you have used for the Incas if you was able to buy them? I was thinking about making a small Inca MOC some time ago but I couldn't find any good minifig parts for them.

Well, The Inca had a variety of clothing and armour.

For the Women servants (Who would have served the Sapa Inca (Emperor)).

For a certain headress, I'd recommend this, but custom it by painting parts:

For a strange headress, I'd say use this:

Or, You could cut off the horns to make this style hat:

Also, This would look nice on the Emperor:

With the weapons, I'd go for a nice standard weapon.

This is a nice "Axe/Baton":

These two items would make a nice club, Inca Army standard club:

Or this Brickforge Item:

You could also copy that Brickforge Idea of a feathered Helmet. Although it wouldn't be correct.

Ah, well I'm a purist but some of your ideas are really good. What would you recommend for torsos? That's where I'm most stuck

With the torsos, I believe your gonna have to resort to Decals because the Inca's Poncho look.

For your photos?

If so, go ahead.

So I have finally chosen a battle so nobody steal it!! It is the 2nd Battle of Trenton, also called the Battle of Assunpink Creek. Any ideas on a good stone bridge, mine is a little bland.

[Joey Lock]

I've been thinking Ratshot. Should we all post what Battles we are thinking of making, And it will be a suprise which one we decide to make? Because it will be much easier to find out, and much, much easier to stop people getting angry about someone "stealing" their idea.

In another thread, of course.

[General Redwater]

If we have a bigger MOC, can we take more than the max of 6?

Nope. However, you can post a link to a Flickr or Brickshelf folder for the extra pictures for people to see.

Why are you telling this to me?

[lt.Gonville brickhead]

[Mrcool1804]

Where do we post our MOC?

Yea, is an ambush alright? I was planning on doing the battle of Oriskany, which was an ambush that became a skirmish. Just wondering.

Nor are you in mine Ratshot. Unless you took part in the assault on Sevastapol?

[Erdbeereis]

I've asked Zorro and Bonaparte about whether ambushes are allowed or not, but as they are attending the EB event they probably won't respond for a day or two.

But go ahead and do ambushes, I'm sure they will be allowed.

Well If you think about it, Most battles or assaults are supposed ambushes. When someone trys to attack a Fort, They are not sure whether the enemy know they are coming, so they try to ambush, But if the Ambush fails to suprise, they call it a "Battle". Not many battles where fought by Generals shaking hands saying "Let the best man win".
