Simon_S Posted June 24, 2014 Built for the HSS Belynia: Entertainment and because of the World Cup . Welcome to this years World Cup in Historica! We're here in the largest stadium in Avalonia, the one of the "Belynia Kickers". Today Avalonia plays against Kaliphlin, let's take a look at the placement of the players: In the Goal of the Kaliphlinites is Gideon, with a brand new hair cut! On the right side is M. of Kaliphlin and on the left side is Da Maximus who rather kicks the Avalonians than the soccer ball. He also styled his hair for this match. Mikey B is the keeper for the Avalonians. And there are also the superstars deGothia and Simon of Nalderic. This will be a great match, so let's start playing... Thanks for looking and have a nice day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
narbilu Posted June 24, 2014 Absolutely briljant Simon... hopefully the Avalonians will win the cup I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Switzerland... the dutch did great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scaevola Posted June 24, 2014 Nice work, I like your Damaximus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Macsen Wledig Posted June 24, 2014 Love it! Can't say I'd like to play aginst a team dressed in armour though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gedren_y Posted June 24, 2014 I wondered when this would happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUtilityBelt Posted June 24, 2014 I wondered when this would happen. Soccer. Staring at a brick wall is better. Great build though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Vladivus Posted June 24, 2014 Awesome! Nocty vs Mitgardia next? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MKJoshA Posted June 24, 2014 Obviously Mitgardia would win that one so why even bother? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Infernum Posted June 24, 2014 Ha, ha, this is hilarious! Awesome idea Simon! Nice build, love the posing of the crowd! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomsche Posted June 24, 2014 I saw that one on Facebook earlier, great build, love it. But where are those Red Devils? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wat Tambor Posted June 24, 2014 Haha, nice build, the idea of building a GoH styled football (or soccer ) stadium is brilliant. I love the crowd, especially the hilarious hats of the Avalonian supporters fit perfectly for a build like this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mccoyed Posted June 24, 2014 Hahaha, awesome. I don't know which team I support! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kabel Posted June 24, 2014 Nice build Simon, although Football in the middle ages was usually played on a field between two villages and was a rather bloody affair Soccer. Staring at a brick wall is better. Great build though! How could you possibly dare saying this in an international forum? Football is life (outside the US) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kai NRG Posted June 24, 2014 Great build there Simon! I like the way you did the goals particularly! Inspiring, too - I almost feel like doing one myself (if it weren't for this WIP sitting on my desk ). And of course Kaliphlin is so going to win! (If they don't, it will only be because Ageven the star isn't there!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hammerhand Posted June 24, 2014 Awesome, Simon! I love the use of those sombreros, and the other various head-wear for the crowd. GO TEAM AVALONIA! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gideon Posted June 24, 2014 Very fun build! As Kabel noted however, a medieval football game here would probably rather be between the two crowds and perhaps result in a few casualties Anyway...GO TEAM KALIPHLIN!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Simon_S Posted June 24, 2014 Absolutely briljant Simon... hopefully the Avalonians will win the cup I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Switzerland... the dutch did great Thanks narbilu . Yeah, I hope that Switerland comes to the last sixteen. Hopp Schwiiz! Nice work, I like your Damaximus Thank you. Love it! Can't say I'd like to play aginst a team dressed in armour though! Thank you. I just wanted to keep the minifigs as near to the "original" ones, so I also used an armor on Gideons (mostly because I didn't had the torso). I wondered when this would happen. Haha, thanks. Soccer. Staring at a brick wall is better. Great build though! I'm not a good player myself but I think it's quite amusing to watch . Awesome! Nocty vs Mitgardia next? I actually wanted to do Nocty vs. Avalonia and then use LD, ZC and BBs Avalonian figs vs. their Nocty ones, but I didn't have the pieces . Ha, ha, this is hilarious! Awesome idea Simon! Nice build, love the posing of the crowd! Thanks Infernum! The most of the time I invested (which wasn't much at all) was building and placing minifigs. I saw that one on Facebook earlier, great build, love it. But where are those Red Devils? Thank you Tomsche. Which Red Devils? Haha, nice build, the idea of building a GoH styled football (or soccer ) stadium is brilliant. I love the crowd, especially the hilarious hats of the Avalonian supporters fit perfectly for a build like this one. Thanks mate! The hat choices weren't intentional, as I had way too few green headgear and just used everything I could find. Hahaha, awesome. I don't know which team I support! Thanks! Nice build Simon, although Football in the middle ages was usually played on a field between two villages and was a rather bloody affair How could you possibly dare saying this in an international forum? Football is life (outside the US) Thank you kabel. Also, that's why you are the history teacher and I'm not . Great build there Simon! I like the way you did the goals particularly! Inspiring, too - I almost feel like doing one myself (if it weren't for this WIP sitting on my desk ). And of course Kaliphlin is so going to win! (If they don't, it will only be because Ageven the star isn't there!) Thanks Kai. I wanted to give them some sort of a comical look by not having the same height on both posts and an angled bar. Kaliphlin is going to lose either way, if you are on the field or not . Awesome, Simon! I love the use of those sombreros, and the other various head-wear for the crowd. GO TEAM AVALONIA! Thanks Hammerhand . Very fun build! As Kabel noted however, a medieval football game here would probably rather be between the two crowds and perhaps result in a few casualties Anyway...GO TEAM KALIPHLIN!! Thanks Gideon. How do you like your new hair style? I think it covers your ears nicely . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torgar Posted June 25, 2014 Great idea and execution Simon! I wouldn't want to be the team that plays against Nocty. How could you possibly dare saying this in an international forum? Football is life (outside the US) Football is still life in the US... it just has a different definition Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gabe Posted June 25, 2014 Genius idea Simon, love it! The crowd look like they are really getting into it. C'mon Kali! (Australia are out of the real game already, no great surprise there but i'm still sad.) ps. Where's the umpire? Going to be an interesting match without one!

Kayne Posted June 25, 2014 SImon, way to pull out a major current event and tie it into GoH so quickly with a great build as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robuko Posted June 25, 2014 Very nicely done sir. The walls and goals look fantastic. For me the highlight is the crowd, they are hilarious. The Kali team of Vinnie Jones, Dragonball Z and Vincent Crabb look ready to take down the tight-wearers. The very overthrown pitch seems favourable to our guys too.

MassEditor Posted June 25, 2014 (edited) Awesome work Simon, very nicely done and topical! You did an amazing job recreating the Avalonian/Kaliphlin crowds and there's so much spirit in this build. Some great ideas too, like those nice goal posts. I'm ready to see Nocturnus play! And don't let the other Yanks convince you otherwise, some of us are football addicts in the U.S. too. Even here in the South - where one's passion goes from God to American football to family, in that order - soccer is becoming the next big thing. The high school team in our town just won its fifth state championship, and the team's only been in existence six years. You can bet you'll see some of our local guys in a future World Cup!

kabel Posted June 26, 2014 GER - US one - nill. I guess we can all live with that (except for the Portugeses I'd say) ! See you in the finals amigos!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maxim I Posted June 26, 2014 Hahahahahahaha So nice to be in this MOC, and the description of my character is absolutely hilarious Too bad the keeper of Avalonia is wearing an helmet Btw, congratz to USA for going to the next round. Be prepared for the Red Devils (Go Belgium!!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike S Posted June 26, 2014 Brilliant build! And because this is such a brilliant build, I will forgive you following the tradition that Rogue Angel (I think) started of using female torsos for certain male characters... But if Kaliphlin loses, Masa can always blame it on his uniform.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
