Bonaparte Posted March 29, 2007 I don't see the Sabre Island (6265)? I think that's most certainly a small outpost. And a don't see a poll, but that's probably because you have to be a knight before you can make polls. Do you want me to add a poll to this thread Mr. Tully?

Mister Phes Posted March 29, 2007 The pirate moderators can't add a poll in the pirate forum :S What's happening with the world? Moderators can't do it in any forum at Eurobricks... So that means I have to do it. Darn! Although I'm not sure about these poll choices as there is some size variation between the sets and they seem an unbalanced selection? I.e. Sabre Island and Lagoon Lock-Up but there is Imperial Outpost but no Cannon Cove Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oo7 Posted March 31, 2007 No Cannon Cove or Smuggler's Shanty, eh? My favorite is the Imperial Outpost, although Lagoon Lockup has a close second. The angle choosen for boxart of the Imperial Outpost is the worst possible. |-/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cutlass Cole Posted March 31, 2007 hmm... I've never seen "the Blur" base before. :-D I think i'll go with Pirate ambush.Why? It's look's the best! And a little Modding, it is the best! Edit Scoreboard Lagoon-lock-up Imperial Outpost Pirate's ambush Sabre Island 4 1 1 :'-( 2 Edit x 2 What happened to my scoreboard? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZCerberus Posted March 31, 2007 I voted for Sabre Island, which I think I never owned! I bought several Imperial Outposts though, for the torsos, large flag, and cannon... but i think in terms of look and feel, I like 'Sabre' the best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oo7 Posted March 31, 2007 What's wrong with it? I presume that was directed at me so I shall now answer it. The angle used for the Imperial Outpost box-art is a head-on 1/2 perspective; For every one of the six 'rooms' there appears to be no back wall. It looks like it is completely open and exposed to all elements. As we all know, the Imperial Outpost has multiple walls all on the sides of the base and a nice brown double door in the back. The camera that has captured the box-art is also exactly perpendicular to the top roof rendering it impossible to see or even notice the top floor's existence. The 3/4 perspective shown here gives a much better depiction; As we also all know, Sabre Island isn't completely sealed either, but the 5/8 perspective used on its box only shows the specific sealed section, as we can see here; That is good box art.

Mister Phes Posted April 1, 2007 I presume that was directed at me so I shall now answer it. The angle used for the Imperial Outpost box-art is a head-on 1/2 perspective; Yes it was. And I think the angle used makes it look very two-dimensional. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oo7 Posted April 1, 2007 And I think the angle used makes it look very two-dimensional. Yes, you've sucessfully cramed it into a nutshell. ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wout Posted April 1, 2007 Oh, i think I don't vote, I like them all *wub* :-D Well, lets say I vote for the 6265 because it was the first one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hobbes Posted April 3, 2007 I went for Lagoon Lock-up. I own two Sabre Islands, but somehow I like Lagoon Lock-up a tad bit more. The Imperial Outpost looks good, too, but doesn't have enough "Caribbean Feeling" to it which is important to me in Pirates sets *sweet* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cutlass Cole Posted April 7, 2007 Not all Pirate's were in the Carribbean lad, they went all the way into India, Even back in Julias Ceasar's time. France wasn't nessesairly in the Carribean, Most of the time it was at war with Brittan, and vice-versa. X-D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maedhros Posted April 7, 2007 Not all Pirate's were in the Carribbean lad, they went all the way into India, Even back in Julias Ceasar's time. So, who want a Pompey versus Pirates sub-theme? :-P Anyway, I voted for the Imperial Outpost.. probably because I always liked the redcoats better than the blue....
