Thanks for the posts :) I'll try to experiment a little ;)

Was hoping there was a way to connect them :( I'm hoping that in a future update it will be possible, otherwise I don't see much use in that part...

Can anyone tell me he how to use part(s) 3711?

I know, but that's not the point. I'm nt saying TLG SHOULD release military sets, I just thought it was a "little bit" hypocrite. However, like I said in a earlier post, I thought it was because of the violence. Back then I didn't know there was a much deeper meaning. I also read the threads FAllenangel posted, and it is clear to me the opinions are more different than I expected. And that's what I wanted to know ;) This thread can be closed IMO

Vikings, pirates and knights aren't really fantasy... Except for dragons, wizards etc offcourse. Besides, I'm not talking about real-world models of vehicles, nor real-life wars.

I may be missing something, but... what's the use of part 3711 since you can't attach 'em to a sprocket?

Well, I didn't really ask a question, I was more curious if people would agree about the hypocrisy. However, I thought the policy was purely because of the violence of war. I didn't know there was a much deeper reason behind it (as described in numerous post in this thread, including yours). And yes, I could build my own millitary models, and I already do (or at least try to, lol) in LDD ;) But that wasn't my point. Well offcourse it would be a bad idea to use real-world factions, I agree to that, but they wouldn't even need to. They wouldn't even need to make two or more different factions. Or they could include things like tanks and jets in themes like aLien Conquest (I know there is a jet included in one of the AC sets, but I'm talking about more realistic designs).

I still can't really agree with that. Just like TLOR FETT posted, some kids could have lost their parents because of a revolver or rifle. Or they could've lost their parents because they were shot by a robber for example... I've used the search function with the words "war policy" and only got a bunch of posts containing the word "policy". But thanks, I'll take a look at them later today.

Since I was a kid, I've always wanted military vehicls in LEGO, like tanks battleships, fighter jets etc, and always wondered why LEGO never released such models. Somewhere last year, I've read that LEGO will never release war themed sets, because of an anti-war policy. Now I can understand and respect such a decision, but when I thought about it, I think it's a little bit hypocrite. There are tons of medieval sets and even viking sets; the "warfare" in that era was very violent and nasty too, maybe even more than modern (mechanized) warfare. I just don't see how swords are less violent than guns. What are your opinions about this?

Wow, how did you manage to do that? :o

Here you go LINK :) One is for the front (just flip it over for the right side) and the other one is for the rear. Enjoy!

I'm building the Gunship in LDD atm too! I found a decent sollution to the ball turrets, if you're interested I could upload it.

This is a light recon tank I just made within 30 minutes: No tracks included, for obvious reasons. LXF File

Thanks for the compliments everyone :)

Thanks! I would love that too, unfortunately, it's not going to happen :(
