Joey Lock Posted April 18, 2010 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Etzel Posted April 18, 2010 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Admiral Ron Posted April 19, 2010 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Lock Posted April 19, 2010 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.

Erdbeereis Posted April 21, 2010 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
