janatale Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Every year Mitgardia hosts a week long festival celebrating winter. There are many shows, feasts, parades and games, all revolving around snow and ice. The most popular event is Axeball. A dangerous game between two teams who try to hit a metal pole on the ice with a small metal disc. The game gets its name for the axes that are used to hit the disc. Every year there are at least a dozen player deaths, from axes, stray discs and ice; yet this stop teams from entering the games. The championship game was between The Mitgardian Greenmen, wearing green cloaks, and the Bearded Blue Devils. Rasmus, captain of the Greenmen, scored the first goal in spectacular fashion, receiving a high flying pass from teammate Sir Tyler of Ennis Isles, and slamming it down to the pole. The Greenmen went on to win the championship game 8-5, and only suffered 2 team causalities throughout the tournament. Here we see a close up of Rasmus's first goal. The disc flew just over the reach of the Blue Devil's postblocker Duke Bari Parker, in purple). As he scored, Another Greenmen, Trevor C. Ooney made a vicious hit on a Bearded Blue Devil player. If any player, besides the postblocker, steps inside the blue and red boundary, it is a penalty. I was in the Winter Olympics spirit, and thanks to the terrible weather which has delayed my bricklink orders and travel plans, I quickly put this thing together. Thankfully I had way too many trans-clear cheese slopes. Enjoy Quote

soccerkid6 Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Really neat idea for a Mitgardian build, I like how you thought out the rules a bit Great ice effect and the circle around the post looks good Quote
HammerBro Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Very nice design on the ice and the curve of the wall is great. Quote
kabel Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Now that is the Mitgardian spirit, I doubt any Kaliphlin would survive this game a mere 5 minutes. Way to go Janatale! Quote
Duvors Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Now that is the Mitgardian spirit, I doubt any Kaliphlin would survive this game a mere 5 minutes. Way to go Janatale! Just thank your lucky stars that there aren't any Nocturnian teams. Quote
Gideon Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Great MOC, the ice looks very good! The cheering crowd behind that curved wall, so close to the action really conveys the sense of a sporting event Kabel: Kaliphlin has a long and proud tradition of gladiator fighting (for example as I showed here), so you should be glad that we have not sent a team to the games!
