Thunderer: G3 Revere: J3 PS- I seemed to miss something... what is the commotion about green?

I agree. Even though the sip crashed, perhaps you need to build up walls of your ship. Use different bricks with gaps in holes in the wall to look like punctured wood and where it is damaged. Also, I'm not sure if I saw some (haven't seen all the pictures) cannons. Make a cabin and wheel too. Even another deck!(You could take some plates and stick them onto the sides of the ship diagonally to look like splintered and cracked floors.) I'm not the best at broken ships so that is the advice I give you. For the background/environment, make some big rocks that would actually look it could obliterate a vessel. Make it pointy and use slopes to make it look natural.

Sorry if someone already posted this, but I didn't see a picture on the top post. But in the LEGO store today... there was an Alien Conquest battle pack. It came with two aliens and 2 ADU soldiers and 1 civilian in a suit. Again, sorry if this was mentioned before, didn't see it in the pictures of sets on the 1st post and looked through about 10 pages... EB member KingoftheZempk was with me and he'll upload pictures. EDIT: Saw that someone posted already on page 60 something...

Yes, Horry is correct.

Revere: J2 Thunderer: G2

Revere: I1 Thunderer: F1

Here is a clock of all major cities

I totally agree. At first, it took me a minute to distinguish which ship was which.

USS Revere: H1 HMS Thunderer: E1

AAH! So many edits.. if you have 7 gun broad side... 7 x 24 is 168, not 200 or something you put... How did you get that? My ships are dead in 2 hits then!

Hopefully this will be fair, you have a much stronger ship up against two weak ones, but you have lots of cannons... if you would like me to remove a ship I will. Let's get this battle started! URGENT EDIT: My broadside is wrong, fixing and re-uploading now.

The game started on page 1 of the topic... After Horry started posting it was all just giving ideas for a game and how it should be run.

I forgot that it is just one side...

EDIT: Nevermind, I saw the link... stupid me. I'm Ready to beta test, so when we play we just send these links to the host? And he'll photoshop them onto the grid?

Unfortunately, I'm not. My editing program can't select everything but the ship. Maybe because my sails are white. If some one out there would do it for me, that would be appreciated. I will post the links. Capt.JohnPaul

Now THAT makes sense... The program is too good. Do you photoshop the ships or do we? Thanks a lot Horry. Capt.JohnPaul

Are you sure the 1st one had a problem and this one didn't? The one you posted 1st said my ships go 3 squares while this one says my ships go 0 squares... Oh, it's ok if you are tired. Take a break for once!

I don't see a link or anything...

I don't think there is a minimum size. You just weigh your ship to find out how strong it is.

I think I did the tables right... Is it about right for brigs and stuff to move 3 squares?

I got like a billion pop-ups, my computer wouldn't load. But I got the rules too and they are good, I am now awaiting the formulas for the speed, and my ships are complete.

Good thinking Phred. And did anyone find out if we are playing in this forum or the games one? If we play in the games one and someone doesn't have a ship that is custom, we could have them "rent" a LEGO Company made one. Can't wait to get started.

Thanks, Horry. I am just a little too eager.

Yeah, too heavy... my ships are armed with stuff much lighter, monkey's with blunderbusses... Sorry to bug you, but when will the formulas be up?
