I have just finished 2 ships for the Eslandolan Fleet, both at least 5HA. La Raya Venenosa Nuestra El Rojo Oscuridad
-
Captain, are you really sure that the third last ship is the unarmed New Terraman that we can easily plunder for all their gold? Arr, off course I am! That's exactly what we've read on those plans in that wrecked postship we found 2 weeks back! Captain! There is a cutter flying the Jolly Roger! They are trying to attack us! Up the Topgallants, Up the Courses! Drop the boat! Prepare a broadside to welcome them! Captain, I don't think that's an unarmed Terraman. Its over now! FIRE! Goodbye, dear fellow. Jack, good hit on their mast. I bet just shaking their boat will break it any minute now! FIRE! *Cannon noises as some guns fire again* Also, aren't we forgetting someone? He could come in useful... We have gotten them good this time! They are done! Pull them in so we can board them! On it Captain! Our other sniper on the fighting tops wasn't forgotten about... *SPLASH* At least his friend got revenge for him... Clear their deck with the carronades! We can forget this cutter anyways! *BOOM* *censored screams* *terrible noise from bones breaking* Board them now! There are only two of them left, maybe we can find out how they found us! *Jump* You found a map and a letter in an lost postship? And you were looking for an unarmed Terraman instead of for us? Well, we knew about that postship, so we changed our positions in the convoy! Tell the devil I won't be there visiting any time soon! A good captain goes down with his ship! SET THE COURSES! SET THE TOPGALLANTS! WE SUNK THEM! I'll post more about these ships later, the frigate(28 guns, 5HA+) will go to Eslandola, the gunboat(10 guns, at least 2A) is owned by Kai NRG. The Frigate is named La Raya Venenosa, The Stingray, and the Cutter is named Dark Spirit. Edit: the bowsprit overhangs only slightly if both ships are placed diagonally. I was actually considering placing my Xebec in the battle as well and saying the 48x80 box is width x height, but I felt like that would've been cheating:P
-
After I heard that there was an offer going on with over 100 DBs for giving a warship to the Eslandolan crown, I knew I couldn't pass that offer. So I ordered this Xebec Frigate, something that is rarely seen in these waters and should be able to deal with these darn pirates that have been pestering our convoys! It has a total of 20 guns on the broadside, a giant crew to man them all, as well as another pair of bowchasers. The big latin sails allow it to keep up with pretty much any ship, and allow it to hunt down basically any pirate ship that gets close to it. Here you can see one entire broadside armed; you see how many men I need to fire these guns! Have I already mentioned that I love how her back looks? To really appreciate the lines of this ship, you better be a bird. _______________ Well, this one was a somewhat rushed build. I started building it two weeks ago and just finished it earlier today. While the rigging may not look to special, it is fully modular (a mast can be removed/placed in under a minute), which was really helpful after taking the first few pictures as I fell over it and knocked down its main mast. Once the new shiptypes are out I might revisit this one, I think there would be enough space to fit 1 or 2 pairs of carronades onto the poopdeck... This ship will go straight to Eslandola.

Monezterell shipyards proudly presents: The Barquentine El Rubi. Built in the shipyards of Elysabethtown, she has been sitting in ordinary (= no masts, no sails, no rigging) for far to long. It is finally time to set her off to her own journey. Well, lets keep our talkin' short let this ship go swim! ____ Just these two pictures for now, I'm sorry, I had so much to take pictures of today. This ship has been sitting on my desk for several months without sails, which was annoying me for long enough. You may notice a strong similarity to the Esmeralda; these ships were started at the same time: Will be licensed as a 4T2 as it seems to be a little bit to small for a 5T. As it could house up to 12 guns it could be refitted to be a 4A as well.

@legoman666 @Jayoheazy @Legocity2713 @FatTina Old posts have to be reprocessed, as in: the old posts formatting code (BBCode) has to be converted to the new code. It has been mentioned before that this may take up to a week. (I hope I'm stepping on noones toes by answering this as it has been answered before)
-
You can still look it up by checking the link to your profile. You are user 4757 for example, Borex is 31834 and I am 128239.
-
I earlier suggested that you could simply try moving the quote button (as well as the plus) to the right, so it isn't as much "in your face", maybe you could try that out?
-
If I understood it correctly the BBcode issue should be fixed once all the posts have been rebuild. Jim said that it could take about a week for all posts. Also: I just noticed that the trade forums appear in the new content section. Is it possible to prevent it from appearing?
-
Well, I had some trouble with dark red headlight bricks, 4 out of 60 have broken, and I've seen a few that are close to breaking as well.
-
Okay, my first thought after seeing this was a bit negative, but after going through a few topics it doesn't seem much different from the old software, at least on the surface - I'm sure it'll be as usable as the old one. Even after playing with it for just a few minutes I am already feeling way better about it. A few suggestions (if those haven't been considered already/these are just my personal opinion): I for one would be glad about getting the quote button back on the right side, as it is a bit more out of the way that way (Right now it jumps into my face each post, especially on shorter posts) As well as that, is it possible to get the "insert Image" back next to the hyperlink? Going through "insert other media" seems inconvenient for those who use it.

Well, considering how few old ships there are, I tried to find some replicas. The first one where I had success was the Batavia, with 2 different places to view it from. I'll try to find more tomorrow!

So, MAESTRO is missing: Wringe II (Legostone, 2F) Pride of Elysabethtown (Legostone, 5T) Green Winds (Legostone, 5F) Colour of the Wind (MAESTRO, 5F) Raenette (Faladrin, 2F) HMS Isandlwana (Tomsche, 0) Disguised Skiff (Tomsche, 0) Pierre Volante (Tomsche, 1T) HMS Terrigan (Tomsche, 1A) The Sea Sparrow (Tomsche, 1A) Tigerlilly (Tomsche, 1WR) Crepe Fruite (Tomsche, 1T) HMS Green Dragon (Tomsche, 2F) Fingernail (Tomsche, 1WR) To add to this, 2 of our ships that went out this MRCA actually went on their supposed run - the Purple Rain (4T2) and Dragons Revenge (5HA), but the second one of these was an escort. The 5Fs were on a convoy of which 1 ship definetly went, the same for the 5T. It does seem like the entire convoy Double Duty and the Junkyard Fleet of Quinnsville (how ever that convoy is named) are missing though.

Yep, I would also feel like I would be missing out, especially considering that we(MAESTRO) had just licensed a pair of 5Fs to use in the MRCA... If you want to I can make a list of the missing MAESTRO ships later today.

Could you please tell us who submitted their form wrong? Because I would find it surprising that so many forms got lost.

I've seen people build it with black masts, which were a lot cheaper. Also, dark brown upper hullparts seem to be getting difficult to find, I have no idea why though.
-
Also, may I ask if ships built for challenge 4B can be licensed? I asked already, but didn't get an answer last time. Also, why is it ending on the 25th and not the end of the month?

[TC10] Wheel Loader
Legostone replied to jorgeopesi's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Well, if the air tank doesn't add functionality just go for one more cylinder to open the hood as well as the engine so there is a reason to open the hood.- 86 replies

SBrick General Discussion
Legostone replied to Nofer89's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
There are the WEDO 1.0 sensors, but there are also the very old mindstorms sensors (example: Rotation and touch, there are more, but I would think these are the most interesting ones). Are those also considered?- 780 replies

General Pirates of the Caribbean Theme Discussion Thread
Legostone replied to Oswald the Rabbit's topic in LEGO Pirates
Well, I remembered stumbling over that review a few days ago and remembered those sails:P I hope you didn't mind me linking it;) I hope this rumor is true, although in my case it would only be me hoping for some interesting parts, as I'm not particularly interested in sets that size. Let's hope it is true - it would at least explain why we didn't hear anything before - it sounds like this would be an exclusive set. -
General Pirates of the Caribbean Theme Discussion Thread
Legostone replied to Oswald the Rabbit's topic in LEGO Pirates
Well, would you prefer the tattered sails from the Kazi Black Pearl? -
Great to see you follow along! Btw, sorry for not posting an update in a while - I have been busy and working on other projects that I see as more likely to be able to be moved to Brickmania Antwerpen. It all still stands and just waits for me to continue. Also... SHIPtember is there again and I really want to do something for that. Also, I have started another ship using a different bending technique on a smaller custom hull (I might use some of the techniques I used there for this one).

You have a battle droid torso there.

Eslandolan ships in the list: Aurei Lacerta, Dragon's Revenge, Joans Raft, Pearl diving Canoe, Cotton Lady and Purple Rain are those that I can see. I know that Purple Rain and Dragon's Revenge weren't running with the Eslandolan Convoys and I'm guessing the same goes for the Pearl diving Canoe and Joans Raft. Can the owners of the Aurei Lacerta and Cotton Lady clear me up? EDIT: Gold Wing and Ultimo Fenix are on the list too, and at least one of them was in Dragon's Teeth; the text also talks about the Flottila fighting the Viper from the SR. I submitted my forms on the 4th (doublechecked conversations), so that shouldn't be it. Weird, I hope this can get fixed without too much trouble! Edit: Oho, we now have a class 6A in the game, the HMS Tiddlywinks captured by DukeSC
