Kai NRG Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Sorry, but I have another question. Can I still build in embassy like in Book 1? I was planning on building an Avalonian embassy for my character's backstory. You can build an embassy as a free-build, I believe! ...For now, I only have one question, I'm trying to build a weapon for my sigfig. If anyone knows the Guandao or the Ashandarei from Wheel of Time series, you've got the gist of it. A spear with a spike on one end and swordblade on the other. Anyone got any suggestions for what parts I could use for this? Sorry if it's the wrong place to ask, just don't know where else ... You could maybe use a lightsaber hilt to attach a straight fang and a katana or similar sword? Quote
Kyo Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 You could maybe use a lightsaber hilt to attach a straight fang and a katana or similar sword? Thanks for the input. I think I found a way to do it, now i just need some scimitars and unicorn horns Quote
TitusV Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) Wheel of time? Wheel of time! WHEEL OF TIME I really love the books! (I was even planning to use some of the elements in my own story, but we should make sure we don't get the same story Edited January 10, 2016 by TitusV Quote
Kyo Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Wheel of time? Wheel of time! WHERL OF TIME I really love the books! (I was even planning to use some of the elements in my own story, but we should make sure we don't get the same story Yeay! Glad someone is as excited as me about those books! It was my first major fantasy read (with the exception of HP and LoTR) back when i was 11-12 y/o. They're just amazing! No worries, I'm using some names (but not any of the major ones) and some concepts to make my own names, but no plot elements Quote
de Gothia Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Welcome kyo!! Glad to have you here! Legoeomer; sure you can build an embassy. Talk to one of the other members here if you wish to build in their cities Quote

No worries, I'm using some names (but not any of the major ones) and some concepts to make my own names, but no plot elements It's probably one of the best series I've ever red! Curious wich names you will be using, and if the characters will have the same traite as the book. I'm going to use the fox-and-snakes tower concept Quote
Kyo Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) Welcome kyo!! Glad to have you here! Thank you, de Gothia. I saw some of your builds earlier, the one where they were going to build a new bridge where the old one had been taken by the stream. The one with the two Kaliphlin stonemasons/builders. And I just must ask you, do you borrow from Jan Guillou's The Crusades Trilogy? That scene just reminded me a bit of it. and the name also of course It's probably one of the best series I've ever red! Curious wich names you will be using, and if the characters will have the same traite as the book. I'll be using quite a few names, might be doing some alterations and rewritings though, don't quite now yet. Oh, don't worry, won't be using that, but that could lead to some really fun builds^^ I'll be using Ellisor, Ellisar, Faisar, Ethin, Jaim, Roedran, Sedrin, Alwyn, Mizahar, Aviellin, Tamlin, Hanlon, Avarhin, Ituralde, Hornwell, Ihvon, Rockshaw, Kashgar, Kandel, Chandin, Aviellin, Nesta, Silvane, Vayelle, Elaine, Leane, Laiwynde. Quite a few of them, I know. And I wont lay claim to them, just let me know if I'm using any names you'll be using for your concept and I'll find some other ones. The ones in bold are the ones I'm already using And yes, I just noticed I got some major characters names in there also... well, well, who cares? x) Edited January 10, 2016 by Kyo Quote
de Gothia Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Yes indeed i do! I have read them all like seven Times... :) Quote
Kyo Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) Yes indeed i do! I have read them all like seven Times... :) Nice! I think I'm at 5 or 6 times. Fantastic books those aswell. I just get lost in them and when I finally emerge after having read them all ('cause I can't stop when I first start the series), I fully believe I'm in the middle ages and ready to ride through the desert the Holy Land or kill some invading danes in Götaland. Edit: YEAAAY! LEGOS! As you can see, my bricks just arrived. I've got a nice little collection, though it's mostly sets and 2x 4,6, and so on, so maybe not the most suitable for MOCing. As you can see, I also got some sorting to do... x) Edited January 10, 2016 by Kyo Quote
de Gothia Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Are you from sweden? Or are they published ln other countries as well? Quote

I'm also going to use someone similar to jain farstrider And I think IT was the Steward who quotes Matrim Cauthon in his signature Quote
Kyo Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Are you from sweden? Or are they published ln other countries as well? Im from Norway, but they're translated to 15-20 different languages I think =) I'm also going to use someone similar to jain farstrider And I think IT was the Steward who quotes Matrim Cauthon in his signature Ah, then I'll remove that name from the list then =) Really? Guess I'll go pester him about those books too then xD Quote
dzidek1983 Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) Is there a topic for posting pics for Task 1-3, the ones with the military, maps, etc, or should i make my own topic and post it as freebuilds? Edited January 11, 2016 by dzidek1983 Quote

Guess I'll go pester him about those books too then xD You're from Norway? Nicee! You don't have to remove the name, i'll just use his last name and character. and I'm trying to use the humor too: Rand: "I wish Math was here. He knows How to deal with girls." Mat, 300 miles away: "I wish Rand was here. He knows How to deal with girls." No, but what I wanted to say you: You want an alliance netwerk our two sigfigs? I have the same with Bregir, and that works out really well (we're doing a collab at the moment, The Aestwäld Saga). You could claim a bit of land next to Drond's Feelds (maybe even call it Tow Rivers)... But don't feel obligated @Dzidek: no, just post a link in this thread I thinn Edited January 11, 2016 by TitusV Quote
de Gothia Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) I posted My own thread about my county.

Rogue Angel Posted January 14, 2016 Author Posted January 14, 2016 Wow, a lot happened in 5 days! Welcome Kyo, welcome back Sparrow. As DeGothia stated, the GoH help page is the place to start. Also read the first post of this thread forbackground info on Avalonia. Dzidek, you should post any of your Task builds in this thread, and create a new dedicated thread as for each Task 4 and 5 build. Quote
de Gothia Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Two mocs done and photographed!! Now I Will start with tje baracks of Sionnach! Quote
Gideon Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Two mocs done and photographed!! Now I Will start with tje baracks of Sionnach! Great to hear that you are in a good building spree! Quote
de Gothia Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) Well to be honest, one of them have been finished for a month! But finaly some pics of it! Do you have the time now Gideon? Two kids and both GoH and the new pirate thing here on EB?!;) Edited January 15, 2016 by de Gothia Quote
Gideon Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Do you have the time now Gideon? Two kids and both GoH and the new pirate thing here on EB?!;) Short answer: no. I don't have nearly enough time to build what I would like now, but I got too enthusiastic about BoBS so I scrapped the plan for doubling my module of the Swebrick post-apocalyptic landscape before the Halmstad exhibition in February so now I hope to be able to at least build for all categories in the Frozen Beyond challenge and for the first BoBS challenge (thankfully small maximum size ). The economic game system over there scares me however since it reminds me a bit too much of the Kaliphlin civil war gameplay But now I'm venturing far off topic... Quote

Except there is even more incentive to build in BoBS because of the cumulative value of certain builds... Seems like we are in the same boat... Two kids, GoH and BoBS, well I also have AG as well... BoBS seems to be winning all my building time though which is why I wasn't thrilled for it to begin with. Quote

Haha ! We should call it a club ! Me too I'm in the same situation : 2 kids and GoH + BoBS ! I don't build in SF style, so I'm not in AG though. Most of my time is for BoBS for now. Quote
Mike S Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Haha ! We should call it a club Indeed, maybe Eurobricks should give us a special lounge like the ladies... Quote
