Thanks, thanks, its good to see, how many of you liked it. A little help is required. Someof the pictures didn't open my flickr withthe selected picture, instead, reload this topic again. Any suggestion what can be the problem? The real credits goes to my girlfriend. Thanks to her, the granary fell from the table, so i hade to almost start again, adding the huge hole on the corner, :D And the guy with the saw, this is one of my favorite head, he looks so dumb, I can only imagine him doing this. For the finished building, I will use it, for the HSS challenge.

My Entry,for the rebuilding Challenge.

Around the ruined granary, the rebuilding process started to take shape. Both peasnts and soldiers worked hard, to rebuild the storage building, befor the start of the harvest. Winter was far, but with everyday, it came closer, Conrad wanted tobuild, of fix many buildings, capable, to store food, for the time of need. "- If neccesary the lords of Avalonia can give shelter to the refugees. But if we are not focusing, to store our food,for the winter, we can't feed even our soldiers." -Said Conrad, every time, if someone asked him, why not building, or repairing the houses.

I just finished the building, now, next step: leave it next to the end of the table, and leave it for the cat, to do his "magic"...

Aye, as a leader of a mercenary army, gold is everything. And don't came with the, "you can't buy happiness" talk. You can buy kittens, and kittens are happiness!

I re-post my Sig-fig too. Just to be sure. Conrad with his band of sellswords, the Wolf Brigade, will keep Avalonia, as their headquaters. His most trusted generals, are on the road, to spread the word, and expand their little army.

What will happenwith Noctornus? I saw four guilds new bookIII topic ,already. it will be closed for the next chapter? Can we still create freebuilds, inside Noctornus?

Then, when i have a settlement, for task 4, or a castle for task 5. I simply mark it, on themap, with a dot? And if i have more time, to build, more and more settlements/castles, can I have more, or there is a limit /member?

And what happened, to the realms, inside Avalonia, What was the decision? Can we keep them, or they are removed?

On the middle picture, how the wood chips are presented, is a bit unfortunate. :D looks like, he always cuts his hand down :D Just kidding, these are awsome MOCs, the forest is awsome!

And finally! my entry, for the Lore Challenge! I hope, i can still participate. I wasn't able, to entr, the challenge, with myfirst idea, with a build, so I made a "plan B" and write a poen, about the lore. First of all, this isn't my native lanuage, I cant write, first time creating a poem, and also first time creating an english poem. Oh, and i joined the guilds, during Raavages, so, don't expect anything, from me :D Here goes: " It was a rainy thursday, in the Scarlets Scars inn. Everybody was busy, with their drinks. The bard decided, to end the sadness, jumped on top of a table, and while strumming his lute,he started the song: Before known time, long ages ago The land saw battles, from sand to snow. Clan againts clan, Race againts race, The bodies of men, feed flocks of crow. They fought againts beasts, orcs and the dead, Darkess fell, it was good to be bad. To unite the land, And make the war end. A plan came, so no one will be sad. Wisest of them, both women and men, Form a council, to gave peace to them. Green Avalonia, Snowy Mitgardia, Dark Noctornus, Kaliphlin on sand. A fair king was elected, to rule, In Cedricia, the kingdoms jewel. Trading opened, Conflicts ended. The four guilds learned, how not to be cruel. Historica found peace, for ages But darkness came, from evil mages. Revolword was his name, Uprising was his game. Broke the ancient law of sages. Land was torn, by angry regiments, Victor used, the Helm of Elements. But heroes ride, To stop the tide. And save Historicas settlements. The bard stopped, to take a sip of beer, from a nerby mug... But the brave guild members couldn't rest, From every corner rose new threats. Algus, Drow, Ancient King, They came to aid one thing. A warlord, named Raavage, from the East. Joining together, the guilds were strong, But only with a heir, they lasted long. Raavage took his last breath, The guilds found Queen Ylspheth! She sits on the throne, where she belongs. What the next chapter brings, no one knows, Only one thing remains, what all knows: Clan againts clan, Race againts race. Thats how Guilds of Historica goes...

Three cheers.

Yeah, i know. just tought it would be great, if I build something, for the lore challenge. After all, this is a building community. I will try to write down the lore, and the story around it. and will create the build later.

Oh darn... I'm on holiday, and i won"t see lego til the 5 of august... I just came with a really good idea...

The Wolf Brigade is still in Avalonia,and they will remain in this great Guild! I kept my sig.fig, just made a little upgrade for him, and his two generals: Conrad the Sly Zan the Black Arrow, And Lok the Wild One

I vote for #2 and #5

My entry for the contest.

The best bounty hunter in the galaxy. You can run,but you can't hide from Jango Fett. He will find you, even if you hide, under the swamp. Star Wars Bounty Hunter I choose this game. Never had a chance to play it, but i really liked the trailer, which i tired to re-create. I uploaded the video of the trailer, cause the build shows more than a single picture.

Alright, you won this time! :D

Actually, i would like to see the results, for the pumpkinpie challange :D

Hah, nice figures, looks like not I am the only one who used little people for the challenge.

Thanks- thanks, I know, I'm a very poor user of the canon... too many options, too many choices, can't figure out, what to use, for photos... The buildings was really fun to build it, wit all the moving parts. I'm not a big engineer either, so it was challenging to figure it out, how to do them. As for the choosed theme, steampunk, I really like this, not as the classical medieval age. I tired to creat a story, why they are up here, insted down there :D I think, this is an, "all in" it would be an epic story, to be told, and to becontinued, or just a loss. :D

They are from brickforge, and brickwarriors. I was collecting a tons of legs, for this challenge :D

The Isle of Steam got only one huge city on it, Coghallow. Almost large of the isle it self. Deep in the island, there is the heart of the engine, that keeps it in the air.

The next large group is the dwarf,they are 27% of the population. mostly guards, craftsman and workers. The goblins population is low, 15%, they are the reasons, why the city needs guards.

Just simply wind them up, and put your things in the hands, it will follow you. Goblin Crime Lord Not every society is perfect. This too isn't. Not every member works together to achive their goals, someones are making troubles, makes accidents, or just steals the good ideas. And yes of course, they are mostly goblins.

They make a complex calculation about what was the deed, and they can't return during that time. If the time is right, the outcasted must find a way to get home.

Conrad left the boat. He now stads in the docks of Coghallow. As he looked around, he saw many flying ships, from the smallest, to the bigest. Many strange metal man carrying barrels and boxes in the nearby warehouse. - It's good to feel solid ground under our feet. - Cogfizz smiled next to him. - Come, I got thing that may you be interested, and I can give you as payment. Conrad started following the gnome, while he was looking around. Anywhere he looked, every building moved. Wheels and cogs turned, smoke came from every chimney, huge machines hummed gently. They walked away from the docks, and arrived to a square, with a fountain in the center. The residents stopped for a moment, everyone was looking at Conrad. - What's the matter with them Cogfizz? - Conrad lowered his voice, and asked his companion. - Most of the never saw someone, from the outer world. - replied Cogfizz. - Actually, you are the first outsider on the isle. But don't worry, we aren't gonna throw you out, like, you almost did to me... The residents of Coghallow accepts everyone, in the city, sooner or later. This way please. They continued the tour, as they went deeper in the city, Conrad had, more and more questions. And in the same time, he got more and more amazed, about the things he saw. - If there anything you want to know, just ask it. - Cogfizz broke the silence. I Conrad did't know, where start: - Erm... How did you keep this whole island in the air? Is it magic? - A bit of both magic and science. Our ancestors created a crystal, which can float, and increased its power, with energy, what we can create. They a conversation started between them. At first, Conrad asked, and Cogfizz replied to him, but later only Cogfizz was the only one, who talked. The Lore of Coghallow, and how science and magic can work together: Many centuries ago, the ancestors of theisland, were lived on the main continent. They were, engineers, scientist, scholars, tinkerer and philosophers. Many profession, but common in one thing, they weren't acknowledged. The mages and sorcerers didn't accepted their studies. They didn't wanted to fuse science and magic, they don't believed, they can achive much more, if they work together. The mages outcasted them, so did the society. They decided, to move awayfrom Historica. They went to the west, with ships. They found a island, full with natural resources, including heat sources. They start building their little society, from pebbles and sticks. Later, they were able to creat golems, to help speed up the process. The heat sources give them new ideas, how to make use of them, and that was the dawn of the Age of Steam, which, is still on. Their Ancestors achived, what they couldn't achive on the continent. Created a society, where magic and science can create a better life. And pictures about the building, and others:
