  1. Please transfer 511 credits to Epsilon...
  2. Location: A06 Guinevere Tags: Kawashita, Guinevere, Aircraft, Military Somewhere on Guinevere flying nap-of-earth… Commander Turtle: Ghost Writer, this is Ed I Tor. Come in. Blackhawk: Copy, Ed. Go ahead. Hey! That rhymed! How cool is that? Commander Turtle: I just want to make sure you understand your mission. MANTIS has set up DESPTRA (DEep SPace TRacking Arrays) on Guinevere to detect any hostile forces closing in on the planet. However, we found a weak link in their network. Hit the array at the coordinates we gave you to blow a huge hole in their coverage and allow our follow-on forces to get through undetected. You got all that? Blackhawk: Yes, Sir, Commander. But why do I have to fly so low? I’m nearly snorting sod here… Commander Turtle: Stop whining! You need to scrape the deck so you won’t be spotted. Consider this as another chance to show off your “impressive” flying skills. Blackhawk: Roger that, Sir. Stand by. Blackhawk: Target coming up, and going down! Blackhawk: BOOM! Got it! Take that, Bugs! Blackhawk: Oh, yeah. That’s what I’m talking about! The continuing adventures of Blackhawk... C & C's welcome!
  3. Too damn funny! And great builds to boot!
  4. Good job all around, but nice landscaping!
  5. Please transfer 170(!) credits to NuckElBerg. Thanks!
  6. Woo hoo! Thank you, judges!
  7. I'd like to throw my two cents in and say thank you to the judges for their hard work on this challenge and AG in general! This challenge was... challenging at times, but a lot of fun! Congratulations to the winners, and a hearty "good job" to all participants!
  8. No kidding! He may even be related to Blackhawk somehow. Maybe we'll see more of him... Thanks, guys! The engine design was an interesting experiment that seems to have come out rather well. I was wondering what I was going to do for a story. When I dug out my M-Tron figs and saw the one with the black visor, I knew I had it! Glad it worked. There's nothing like a good laugh to liven up a build! Yeah, M squad worked out well. Good thing I still have those old minifigs! Thank you! My original concept was to build a Leopard class dropship from Battletech (if anyone knows what that is...), but I didn't have the wedge plates, or enough of them, to do it. So, I changed it to this, with a slab-sided homage to the old Leopard...
  9. Great work here! Love how you made the missile warheads. Never thought of that before...
  10. Awesome. Simply stunning. Wow. What else can be said?
  11. What else can be said? Great job!
  12. THAT is friggin' insanely awesome! I want one! This certainly ranks as one of the best builds I've seen here! I'd love to have the skill (and parts) to do something like this!
  13. Love the shape! Great looking ship! Well done!
  14. As someone who is getting back into Legos, I can understand the lack of skill bit. For me, lack of parts has to be thrown in as well. Still, great work here! I hope you continue to build more in AG.
  15. Great work for your first Kawashita build! You're already a credit to the team! At least Monty made out better for his first mission than Blackhawk did! Still gotta get Aera back for that...
  16. Wow! That puppy looks like it means business! Nice job!
  17. Whoah! THAT is awesome! Great job! Talk about traveling in style...
  18. Location: Who knows, who cares? Tags: Kawashita, Military, Challenge 2 This is NOT what I had in mind when I said I’d take any mission thrown my way! I’m a fighter pilot, for crying out loud! Give me a fast, heavily armed ship and I’ll fly anywhere and fight anyone you want. But I’ve got a job to pilot a dropship onto some no-name rock that the bug-eyed aliens have set up a forward base on and drop off a strike team. Doesn’t that make me a glorified bus driver? The only explanation I got was the “insane, almost suicidal recklessness” line again. Crud… Okay, now that I’ve seen it up close, this Javelin isn’t half bad. I suppose I could condescend enough to fly it… At least I have Shane as my WSO (that’s Weapons System Officer, for those not up on CMJ, which is Common Military Jargon. I made that last one up myself). We’re assigned to drop off the M squad so they can hit the power generators and allow the follow-on forces to plaster the base. I don’t know what the “M” stands for. Marine? Magnificent? Mopey? Moronic? They won’t tell me. I take it all back! This puppy really moves! It doesn’t handle as well as the Thunderbolt, but all things considered, it’s not bad! I got a kill going in, and Shane pegged a bogey with the top guns. Drop point coming up. Let’s go! We’re down, and the M squad is heading out. Except for the one guy who has a really dark visor on his helmet. He thinks it looks cool, so he keeps it down all the time. The thing is, he can’t see worth diddly-squat with it down. I’m gonna go with the “M for Moronic” theory… The guys are on the scene. Go, M squad! Except for Dark Visor. That guy is totally lost… This is what you get when you cross a fighter with a transport! This baby is a bit big, which posed some problems with keeping it in the background area. Oh, well. At least I think the build came out well. But is this it? The challenge is over? Hey, it was fun! I enjoyed participating, and I'm looking forward to more like it! C&C's welcome and appreciated.
  19. Great job! Love the rock work and the waterfall...
  20. Awesome vehicle! Absolutely love it! Great job!
  21. Was that a quote from The Princess Bride? Idigo would be proud!
  22. Sweet!! No kidding. Awesome job!
  23. Great truck! I loved the use of grills as tread tracks!
