  1. Welcome! Please be sure to read our rule list and the build specifications. We highly recommend using a photo hosting site like Flickr for pictures of your builds as you will not be able to post Instagram photos here. Look at some of the builds in the threads below to get an idea. Feel free to ask any questions in our general discussion area if anything seems unclear.
  2. You posted several builds in a really short time. Of the 3, this one was the least detailed and elaborate. Don't take it in a bad way but understand we know what you're capable of having seen some really awesome builds from you. It is important to remember you are scored based on what you do and how you progress, not compared to other players (unless it's a contest). I'm sure you'll do an awesome build next time, don't sweat it!
  3. You’ve been awarded ( 2 ) points. Judges’ comments… I was torn on this build. Let me start by saying that I thought the helicopters were really cool, original, and clearly though out. Now the rest of the build felt very rushed to me. I fear you may have rushed through this one for the sake of having it out quickly and maximizing your total. The tower and airfield really did not have much going on. Slow down a little and show us the effort you've been known to produce. Again, the helicopters were awesome. Be Sure to Update Your AARs. Thanks for playing!
  4. You’ve been awarded ( 3 ) points. Judges’ comments… This build had something of a futuristic feeling to me or like something from a video game like an old school nintendo game or something (not in a bad way). The buildings look like a mix between a bunker and a middle eastern hut with the supports sticking out. The coolest part of the build is by far the drone, so simple but it works. Only suggestion would be to find a way to get the drone airborned without the clear bricks appearing in your shot (and I'm not talking about photo editing) there are ways to do it. Nice work! Be Sure to Update Your AARs. Thanks for playing!
  5. You’ve been awarded ( 2 ) points. Judges’ comments… Not a bad 2nd build but we need a little input here. First point is how similar this felt to your first build. Try and switch things up a bit and do some variations. Secondly, focus on the little things. Details can make or break a good build. Try to find ways to throw in even the simplest of details to your build to really make things standout. The last suggestion which we didn't knock you for scorewise since we didn't get you the feedback on your first one yet is your presentation. Try to get as much lighting as possible into your builds. Also try to imagine the perspective of your viewers while building so you give yourself a viewing area that is clear and open as best you can. Great job keeping up with this! Be Sure to Update Your AARs. Thanks for playing!
  6. You’ve been awarded ( 3 ) points. Judges’ comments… Let's start again by saying welcome and thank you for joining us so quickly. Looking at your build you have a good amount of detail through out; from the phones on the wall, to the AC Vent, and then the water (which looks like you filled it with 1x1 round plate and that is a pain in the butt). Either way, great job for your first build. My main suggestion for now would be to look into your photo options as they can make or break a good build. Step 1. Make sure you have plentiful lighting. Be mindful of your lights and shadows. Whenever possible, shoot outdoors for the best results. Step 2. If you're using your phone to take pictures, consider using an App like snapseed to help bring out the most in your photos. We look forward to seeing more builds from you in the future! Be Sure to Update Your AARs. Thanks for playing!
  7. You’ve been awarded ( 4 ) points. Judges’ comments… Great Build and very interesting concept with the reporter. I particularly liked your use of the netting for the fencing and the row of wire across the top. That gate looks like it functions too so I can see you put some detail into this. Great job! Be Sure to Update Your AARs. Thanks for playing!
  8. You’ve been awarded ( 5 ) points. Judges’ comments… This is a really awesome build. I like how you did this as more of a free flowing concept than bound to a base plate. Very original. Also thought that the simple little river raft was cool too. Nothing crazy to this build, its just structured very well and it works. NICE JOB! Who makes the backpack and vest on the photographer? Unsure of the color due to brightness of pic. Be Sure to Update Your AARs. Thanks for playing!
  9. You’ve been awarded ( 3 ) points. Judges’ comments… This was a nice small build. I'm seeing a trend with all of you making buildings reminiscent of Star Wars and things, especially with the doorways. Maybe Tosul is a tech filled nation? Pictures could use a little more natural lighting to see the details. Either way nicely done. Not sure about that satellite camera though... Be Sure to Update Your AARs. Thanks for playing!
  10. Hey where you been hiding buddy?
  11. Didn't know satellites took pictures at eye level ???
  12. Don't forget, you have a new player to include @VenomBricks
  13. Sad to see you go my friend, I very much enjoyed your builds over time. Best of luck and you are always welcome back!
  14. Ahhh I see you made it here! Welcome!

  16. SEEK AND DESTROY! A raid was carried out tonight inside the Deland Republic on a known GLA region of operation. During the raid, a lot of intel was gathered on the enemy. BON Forces discovered what they believe to be a span of GLA networks throughout the area starting on Bahn Puor. Commanders from nations around the globe have been given the authorization to plan a multi-headed Search and Destroy Campaign against the GLA in the region. (SEE MAP BELOW) Tosul has refused to partake in the Operation and vows anyone who steps foot on their lands will be met with harsh retaliation if discovered. Tosul Map by Jesse Beeze, on Flickr All planning posts should be carried out here in this thread and open to the public. This should be approached like a real operation from a strategic point of view.

  17. Thank you to those who participated. Another mission will be dropping later today. For the big news that everyone was waiting for..... Congratulations to @marvelBoy123 for winning the random prize drawing. You and @SATSOK both had 3 entries in the contest so it was a 50/50 chance for you guys. PM me your details so I can ship you the prize pack!
  18. You’ve been awarded ( 3 ) points. Judges’ comments… I liked this build, it was great size and filled with detail for a side build. Particularly fond of the open design. I would have liked to have seen the full pictures and not the cropped cut comic book cutout style but that's just me. Pictures felt a little cramped. Be Sure to Update Your AARs. Thanks for playing!
  19. You’ve been awarded (4) points. Judges’ comments… This one is awesome. My first thought looking at it was alcatraz. This is a good way to show a perspective build. From the front the building looks huge, but it has no depth. Great design! This could have sufficed for a campaign build likely. Be Sure to Update Your AARs. Thanks for playing!
  20. You’ve been awarded ( 3 ) points. Judges’ comments… This is a very basic and straight to the point build, in a good way. You did a good job showing the shop and detailing the things around it. THe vehicle is kind of cool, gives me a very WWI vibe. Be Sure to Update Your AARs. Thanks for playing!
  21. You’ve been awarded ( 3 ) points. Judges’ comments… So I'm going to start by saying that I don't understand the purpose of this build and how it really ties into the game. It feels like a shoe in from MTV Cribs or something to showcase this build you did. That said, It is REALLY nice and you have tons of detail throughout. It's clear a lot of work went into this just not sure the purpose so that hurt your score a little bit. Be Sure to Update Your AARs. Thanks for playing!
