Francis Marion Posted May 6, 2008 I, for some odd reason, stay up very late researching weapons from the piratical time period. Some of the things I've found LEGO should have for their Pirates line are weapons such as the sabre (saber), the rapier, claymores (possibly), etc. Has anyone made any of the aforementioned weapons at all? If so, do you have pictures? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueBard Posted May 6, 2008 It's not any of the weapons mentioned, but here's my simple version of a boarding musket, using one of the WW rifles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cyclone501 Posted May 6, 2008 You might find a claymore on Brickforge (or something like that) and a saber and a cutlass are extremely similar (I think), but no one has made rapiers. Maybe you could try making your own (ask how from Armothe or someone else) Until you find a solution, just use any avaliable replacements. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Francis Marion Posted May 6, 2008 (edited) You might find a claymore on Brickforge (or something like that) I believe you're referring to the Hero sword, am I right? Sorry, I should have been more specific in this. I meant a basket-hilted claymore as the typical highland claymore was relatively obselete by the time of pirates. a saber and a cutlass are extremely similar (I think) They are relatively similar, but a cutlass is shorter, broader, and heavier than a saber, which is fairly long and relatively lighter, as well as being useful for thrusting attacks Edited May 6, 2008 by Francis Marion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted May 7, 2008 Have you had a look at the New Brickarms M1 Garand riffles thread? That's got some custom weaponry which you can actually purchase I believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think the saber matters. If you have to be 100% accurate, your not going to have that much luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted May 10, 2008 I suppose this grappling hook could be used as a weapon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
El Bucanero Posted May 10, 2008 I do recall modding a Little Armory scimitar. I cut the hilt from a normal cutlass and sticked it to the scimitar. I quite liked the result! I'll see if I can find it in my infinite mess of bricks.. Until then I have this picture! The guy on the right is holding the scimitar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cyclone501 Posted May 13, 2008 I suppose this grappling hook could be used as a weapon. Is that a strange joke about my idea? Cause I decided it was a bit stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
