    Welcome to Ensign William Thomas. Nice backstory and troops! It will be interesting to follow his adventures in the Brick Seas.

    A tip: I generally find that when posting more pictures, it makes the post easier and more pleasant to read if the pictures and text is mixed up a bit. A little text, then the relavent picture, and then some more text, etc.

    i have just gone and edited the post so that it is now a lot nicer. thanks for the advice.

  3. May I introduce to you a new soldier in corringtons royal navy, ensign William Thomas, or 'one eyed billy'. 

    William Thomas was the son of a rich man, who would often go with the navy on expeditions to the land of the loti. William would always beg his father to let him come along to, but the answer was always the same. "your to young" his father would say before embarking on a long and perilous journey. One day, William caught word that his father had died in a minor skirmish with a band of sea rats. From that moment on, William swore that he would track down and kill the sea rats that killed his father. So on his sixteenth birthday, he joined the navy and embarked on a visit to the land of the loti, where he aqquired a strange loti blade and a mysterious book of loti religion. unfortunately, while there he was stabbed in the eye, thus earning him both the need to wear an eyepatch, and the nickname, 'one eyed bill' among his freinds and fellow soldiers. On the day he returned to corrington, the navy transferred him to an infantry battalion stationed at alrlinsport. He is there now, still an ensign, awaiting further orders from the regimental lt colonel, ethan harris

    this is william thomas

    Hi,

    In Corrington, the general rule is as stated in the introduction:

    Since a regimental commander would be a colonel or a lieutenant colonel, that is not an option.

    You can, at most, start as Captain (and hence company commander), but I would personally suggest you start at lieutenant, as that gives better chances of earning, RP'ing and story telling your way up through the ranks.

    In general, I suggest you take a look at this quick guide. It gives you an idea about how to get started, including posting your introduction build, first vessel, and licensing it.

    In short, once you have signed up with a sig figure, you can start posting builds in bobs, and I always suggest starting with an introduction build for your character. To license a ship, you will first need to post it in its own topic in the forum, and the license it by the proper form. Once you reach that point, we will happily help you do so.

     

    Hope that helps - let us know if you have any further questions.

    thanks for the info. i will post my sig fig soon as a seargent of four men.:pir_laugh2:

    I hope the next pirates will have tricorns for the soldiers and not those stupid tschakos, but I don't know how you argue that in normal pirates they will have those because in they are in a POTC set. They also had tricorns in the first wave of POTC and we saw soldiers witch tschakos after that.
    Concerning guns I really wish that TLC would finally give them a new design. I mean we got new better looking swords,spears and bows but are still stuck with a 30 year old design for the guns. I don't say that the old ones should be completly abandoned but still be the main weapon for the pirates, but the soldiers could really use something that would look more like a musket and not a thunderbluss. (If we are at it some rapier like wepaon would be nice to xD)

    personally, i quite like the lego shako although i do agree that for the soldiers a musket-shaped gun would be better than a blunderbuss.

    i have been on this group for a while now looking at all the cool builds you guys make and you inspired me to build a lego pirate ship from scratch. it is not as good as the stuff you guys build but i think it is alright. if you are wondering what the winch hook is doing it is meant to be an anchor. the technic pins on the side are meant to represent lots of cannons. you cannot quite see it but on the top of the mainsail there is a crows nest.

    please could you also tell me if you have posted any custom lego builds so i can check them out.:pir-yoda:.
