The Empire of Eslandola: Sign-up and Discussion

[Garmadon]

Do you "touch it up" in photoshop afterwards then - the gradient is so smooth I always assumed it was photoshop.

No. I don't remove the background in any of my pics except for those I edit to place a different picture behind (e.g., the Henri) - for these the only post-photography editing I did was a little fix on the lighting/contrast, etc (straightening, cropping) where necessary. That's the advantage of taking pictures outdoors with a good background!

Ok, thanks. Well, outdoor pictures will be possible in the next months (until winter and darkness return...)

Be careful! Otherwise the wind might knock your ship over! Happened to me:P

[Phadeout]

I'm a strictly nocturnal builder so unless I have a photo afternoon once a week it is going to be neon tubes in the basement until further notice. Thanks for the info though Garmadon

It happened to Garmadon too. Well, actually, the wind knocked over the white posterboard, which in turn knocked down all the masts... Quite a pain!

I've been busy building lately a bit too (picture = link to topic):

Note: the ships licenced and build in May still need to be added

[TitusV]

Great job Maxim!

Looks like the naval supremacy of MAESTRO is established

[gedren_y]

I know you have done a lot to keep this list up to date, so thank you Maxim, but the Dark Lightning still needs her name fixed in the listing. Additionally, could you add Captain Raphael Dunbarger to her stats?

I am currently working on another LDD ship with an experimental hull design. I am still working on her sail design, and hope to include her berthing at Nova Terreli.

[Kai NRG]

Just FYI, Maxim, mentioned this before but it's still there - The Golden Snake is a WR, not a T.

[Maxim I]

At Kai and Gedren: fixed it in the ship index :)

[Tezclatipoca]

Thank you for your work Maxim !

You already mentioned my licenses changes ! You're going quickly !

So I have to ask :

How can I change my ship licenses ?

I have a class 2A ship waiting, a class 2F back but I want to unlicense the sistership I created (I am not a fan of the sistership rule); and I still have a class 0 that will bother me because I captured a class 3A that I am actually MOCing but I don't want to pay the majoration price for licensing her, seing it's a captured ship I will have her for free.

So What to do ?

I was thinking about unlicensing every ship I have and go for a new start with my class 2A as a free license; then buy back the Raenette license back to Legostone to keep her in my fleet; and finally post the MOC of the Class3A that is automatically licensed if MOCed, if I am not mistaking... And perhaps at the end get back the Class0 as a 4th ship and pay the majoration on her.

Is that possible ? Am I mistaken in somewhere ? How can I unlicense a ship ?

I would be happy to know your advices on that. Thank you my fellow comrades !

[Capt Wolf]

Maxim, thanks for all your work with the ship list. It really adds a lot to the game!

Regarding the Prince Fernando, while I'm the builder, the ship will be owned by the MCTC and shareholders. FYI.

Also, if you want to keep track of this type of thing here, the Heart of Eslandia was sold by Bloody Bill to Bregir and is now the Bellson. I know that info appears in the Corrington list, I just wasn't sure if you wanted it here as well.

[Maxim I]

Well, I got there a bit of intern conflict with myself.

To keep it simple, I just am putting the next own in the list. So if one wants to keep track of a ship, he has to try to find the ship in the different lists (don't forget all these lists can be found in the Ship Index).

Some ships are changing owners every month however...

So I think I will make a "Ship History" list in the future where all ships are listed and well erm their history of owners :)

[Legostone]

Apparently I forgot to post my last ship here too... But oh well, here is the

Dragon's Revenge:

and the

Pride of Elysabethtown:

[Capt Wolf]

Another ship for the mighty Eslandola merchant fleet: the class 4T2 Far Horizon.

[Tezclatipoca]

Hello !

A new ship is entering in MAESTRO service : The Pineapple Revenge !

And this ship had been taken to L'Olius, the infamous mardieran privateer that attacked us the past MRCA ! Revenge has a good taste !

A quick vig in advance of the MRCA: Blessing

[gedren_y]

Double post, I know.

My LDD ship, the Island Rose is finished. I'm in the process editing the screenshots now. I may wait to license her, as the cost would wipe me out. I have another build about 80% done, but I may save it until next month.

Edited May 25, 2016 by gedren_y

[Tezclatipoca]

Good to know Gedren. I will look forward to this ship !

I made another build here.

Let's hope to find gold !

[Stash2Sixx]

Eslandolan wizards...what, if any, would we classify a militia recruiting station as?

I'd love to say commerce, but there's no money being exchanged, although a service and goods are being provided?

Thanks.

And MAXIM, I've got two ships in development...

FBG - Terraman

La Chupacabra - Frigate, although no rating as of yet.

Just wanted to get that out there for you.

Also, start watching the mail in about 10 days.

[gedren_y]

The Island Rose is finally up. I'll license her later.

[Capt Wolf]

The Weelond market house on the village green is open for business.

Hello !

Here is a consistent building in order to get closer to an apple monopoly for MAESTRO : The Apple Cider Brewery in Elysabethtown.

[Kai NRG]

Attention all Eslandians! June is our month for hearing court cases, so if anyone has anything, shoot the ESL leaders a PM.
