Announcement! Judging is progressing as planned and should be completed shortly. In the mean time, here's a little reward to whet your anticipation: the top two scoring builders will receive a copy of 9678 Twin-Pod Cloud Car and Bespin, generously donated by our Rebel Blog Master, Lobot! Everybody say, "Thank you, Lobot!"

I like the idea of the camo net. Well-executed. The transition between the sand and the cliff seems a little too...uniform, I guess is the word, though. I'm assuming that this is supposed to be a free build, since Ep. I's entry period has already ended. I'll edit the title and move it.

QM Note: I think that only Lord Duvors provided instructions for the placement of his troops. If I missed something, I can edit this. I'm labeling all enemies with a letter to make things easier if you uncover more enemies; just because there is an 'A' does not necessarily mean there is or isn't a 'B'. "Then let us begin." "Commander Wineghlim, we've spotted a sentry!" The Enemies: Pongcanis Sentry A Scout *In a Building* Level: 4 Health: 10/10 Defense: 1 2 Passive Special: Scouts gain +1 Level when not in a building. Drops: nothing The Alliance to Restore R'kilf: Resistance Spearmen A (commanded by Sandy) Footsoldiers Power: 6 Health: 10/10 Defense: 1 Passive Special: Footsoldiers gain a +1 Power flanking bonus whenever their target is adjacent to one of their allies. Resistance Spearmen B (commanded by Flipz) Footsoldiers Power: 6 Health: 10/10 Defense: 1 Passive Special: Footsoldiers gain a +1 Power flanking bonus whenever their target is adjacent to one of their allies. Resistance Spearmen C (commanded by Lord Duvors) Footsoldiers Power: 6 Health: 10/10 Defense: 1 Passive Special: Footsoldiers gain a +1 Power flanking bonus whenever their target is adjacent to one of their allies. Elven Warriors A (commanded by Chromeknight) Ranged Power: 4 Health: 10/10 Defense: 3 Passive Special: Ranged units can fire over obstacles or other units to attack enemies up to two hexes away. If their target is two hexes away, they cannot take Damage. Elven Warriors B (commanded by Wedge09) Ranged Power: 4 Health: 10/10 Defense: 3 Passive Special: Ranged units can fire over obstacles or other units to attack enemies up to two hexes away. If their target is two hexes away, they cannot take Damage. Knights of Patuqun (commanded by Zepher) Mounted Power: 2 Health: 10/10 Defense: 5 Passive Special: Mounted units can act twice in a Round.

Below 30 HP, control of the Knights of Patuqun will be lost, below 15 HP, control of the elves will be lost, and at 0 HP, control of the resistance soldiers will be lost. Party leader, choose the order of actions. All combatants, choose your targets for your troops. Also mention if you want to try to move or attempt something else outside the box. Unless otherwise specified, all units can move one hex or attack an enemy in an adjacent hex. Footsoldiers deal double Damage to Ranged units. Ranged units deal double Damage to Mounted units. Mounted units deal double Damage to Footsoldiers. Scouts always take and deal normal Damage. Any city walls cannot be crossed. If you move into a building, you end your turn no matter how many moves you have left, but you receive +1 Defense while in the building. Any diplomats who don't reach the headquarters conscious will no longer support you. Any enemy not targeted will get a Free Action which may or may not be in the form of a Free Hit after everyone has acted.

He spelled it phenomenally.

QM Note:Each of you command a group of soldiers. The goal of the big battle is to get the diplomats into the Pongcanis headquarters and join them there and leave your troops in a good strategic position in case there's a later battle. You can work together, you can work spread out into different areas, however you want to play it. (Troops you have number more than the avatars; it's just not practical to have avatars for all of them, as in the Battle of Drakencourt.) The troops line up to allow you to inspect their stats. "I'm not sure how many of you have experience with large battles such as these. Your goal is to take command of these units and use them to protect us and get us to the Pongcanis headquarters, where you can join us. If one of us leaders is Knocked Out, then our faction will cease to support you." "Remember that in addition to their special abilities which you'll be shown in a moment, Damage dealt by a Footsoldier unit to a Ranged unit is doubled, Damage dealt by a Ranged unit to a Mounted unit is doubled, and Damage dealt by a Mounted unit to a Footsoldier unit is doubled." "All units can move once or attack once unless otherwise specified, but their turn ends no matter what if they move into a building or onto a hill. Units in buildings or on hills receive a +1 Defense bonus." "Units are capable of dealing Extra Critical Hits, Critical Hits, Hits, Misses, taking Damage, and taking Doubled Damage." "Any other questions?"

Cloud City's got to be one of the tops for a lot of people.

When it comes to studs, you have to find a balance between studlessness and bulky blockiness. In this case, tiling over would've made those steering vanes too thick and both there and everywhere else probably would've made it worse, even less smooth and more blocky in transitions in the sculpting, curving, and angling of parts. And if you have to have some studs, you don't want to leave just those studs such that they look like rivets or bumps. The one place that maybe more tiles could've been used is probably around the pack at the back, but I think it's fine.

I don't think they work together here. They look too colorful, a little bit childish, and somewhat basic. (Like things built from the basic brick buckets.) If they were more muted colors — sand red, sand blue, dark red, dark blue — then maybe it would work in this setting. Otherwise I don't think the two of them work together in this setting.

"The resistance has assembled three groups of spearmen." "And the elves make up two groups of warriors wielding sword and bow; I believe 'warden' is your term for them. And this is my commander, Lord Feraev." "Good afternoon." "And Patuqun has its knights, Kadarphazân, Bur'dazgar, Abârlômi, and Zigirôhîn. That gives us six groups of men to deploy. We have decided that, in the unlikely but possible event that the Pongcanae are open to negotiation, the three of us leaders should accompany you." "Saeavel, Elerylian, Sir Abârlomi, and Sir Kadarphazân can rejoin their respective ranks. The leaders have decided that to each of you should be given the command of a group of warriors. Lady Calmcacil and Lord Vandagant will of course get command of the two elven groups, Lord Boomingham will have the most experience commanding the Knights of Patuqun, and thus Miss Arbour, Master Regulus, and Master Wineghlim will get command of resistance groups. "Now, you can see on the map that there are a number of ways into and our of larger houses around that park where the Pongcanae are based out of:" "I would suggest that a few of us move in from the village side to back you heroes up while the rest wait outside the village walls in case the Pongcanae try to escape over the plains — but it is of course your call. Lord Feraev and I await your commands." "And of course, we will hold you responsible if one of the leaders does not return alive."

If you make the color scheme less colorful by getting rid of either the red or the blue and just keeping one of those two, then the couch might look good in tan.

Ah, got it.

That hair originated as Anakin hair. It's been used for him since 2008.

QM Note: Just as a heads-up, there is one more preparation thing you need to do before you move to assaulting the Pog headquarters, so don't get too far into following the tracks, you just need to divide the loot for now.

Docken doesn't care what afterlife he believes in as long as it gives him the best stat bonus.

Plus for anyone familiar with the EU, it's a personal ship that's easily associated with Cloud City, without being too unique like a Firespray or a YT-1300.

And without trying to bring too much religion into the topic (I'm not saying whether this is a good thing or a bad thing for people or characters to believe.), the setting of Heroica compared to the real world and the inspirations of Heroica from the real world are such that you'd expect many different groups of most people to have some sort of belief in the afterlife, too.

The Lady Luck is just one of a class of luxury yachts; this one doesn't have to be the Lady Luck.

Oh, were you the one posting all the beeps and whistles and chirps in Jedi Temple? I kind of remember that now that you mention it.

I think I remember noticing that when one of our members hosted a LEGO mafia game but on a non-LEGO forum...I forgot who it was. It was baseball-themed. The members there were newer to mafia as a whole, and there was a lot more roleplaying and decisions based on it. On EB, on the other hand, we've got players who've been playing it for a long time who introduce you to strategy by almost forcing you to use mafia strategy as soon as you start playing if you want to keep pace. (I prefer the strategic approach, but I'm sure you could predict that about me.)

Ah, I see. It's the big window that makes it look a lot like one of the big buildings up top. But in any case, like I said, I like the inclusion of the two together.

I vaguely remember that, but I didn't record a source in the first post...where did we hear that?

Results of Round One of the Fight with the Fleeing Pongcanae: >Nerwen Calmcacil swaps Barbarian's Boots for Shackles of War. (no longer has Restoration; no one can Flee) >Nerwen Calmcacil uses Scroll of Armor Sundering on Pongcanis Swordsman B — Success (-5 SP, -5 Ether) >Alexander Vandagant vs. Pongcanis Swordsman A — Special Damage (Dodge; next attack does no Damage) Lord Lawrence Boomingham vs. Pongcanis Swordsman A — Guardian Angel (Party is immune to Damage and negative effects next Round) >Saevael vs. Pongcanis Swordsman B — Special Damage (Dodge; next attack does no Damage) Throlar Wineghlim vs. Pongcanis Swordsman A — Miss Eleryian vs. Pongcanis Swordsman A Pongcanis Swordsman B — Hit (no effect; Dodging) >Arthur Justus Regulus VII vs. Pongcanis Swordsman A — Enchantment (Arm Shield +1 SP; -9 Ether) Sir Abârlômi vs. Pongcanis Swordsman A — War Cry (All party members Encouraged) >Ahvialyn vs. Pongcanis Swordsman B — Mug ((((20*3)+18)*2)-10=146 Damage; no Gold) Ellaria Arbour vs. Pongcanis Swordsman B — Damage (40-3=37 Damage) Seeing the Pongcanae about to Flee, Nerwen, you quickly pull out the Shackles of War before magically cracking on the swordsmen's armor. Alexander, your reliable repetitive attacks have perhaps become predictable, because the Pog gets up with plenty of time to dodge both your attack and that of another. Boomingham, you call on your Guardian Angel. Saeavel isn't fast enough to prevent the other Pog from dodging as well, causing Elerylian's attack to be harmless just as yours misses, Throlar. Arthur, you make your shield stronger. Abârlômi gives an encouraging cry, and Ahvialyn responds by stabbing her dagger right into the Pog's chest and twisting violently. Thrashing in pain, the beast catches you unexpectedly with his sword, Ellaria. The battle continues; the Pogs unable to retreat. QM Note: Yes, this is definitely an autoroll situation. I don't have time at the moment though, sorry.

And we also didn't really know exactly what to expect from this game, so playing it and organizing it ourselves in terms of a mafia gave us a place to start at rather than just experimenting and then looking for scumtells.

Not at all.
