    I can't see the pics, so I'm using my imagination now.

    Who says we are the bad guys? We are the good guys! In the universe of BoBS, OL is a monarchist faction, just as ESL is a republican faction. And players from each faction are supposed to defend the ideals of their own faction, otherwise, it would be pointless to have different factions. So I wonder why we should be called "bad guys" when we try to restore the monarchy in TV, while you consider yourselves as "good guys" when you guys try to defend your faction's ideals on that island. What's the logic behind it? Correct me if I'm wrong but I think we are supposed to be in the age of sail, in that era, almost every nation was ruled by a king, besides, when you overthrow a king and put yourself on the throne, as what happened in TV, can't be called a revolution, it's just a shift of power. Also, about the attack on Aurelia, do you think it's a good move to start another war while we are in the middle of a peace talk?

    Brickwarrior, cavalry sabre of American civil war, they have gatling guns from that era too.

    Thanks guys! He's digging a hole. I have to say I'm a bit lost here, I built it initially as a troop raising build, but as you redcoats have landed at Aurelia, and knowing that we can't raise any more troop from this settlement, I think I'll hold off from licensing it.

    Thanks guys, glad you like it. These Roman helmets are the closest things I could find that have a certain ressemblance with Cuirassiers' helmets, another option might be using TLG's helmets from the Dragon Knights, but I don't know if they come in gold or silver. In fact tricornes were more common, but I prefer the casques here, they have a more "pittoresque" look. I meant Eltina. Things are evolving rapidly here in Bobs, it's hard to keep up with, I didn't have a particular location in mind when I put these bricks together, till someone told me that we can still license another company in Eltina.

    Thanks guys. The helmets are from Brickwarrior, like Ayrlego said. From a certain distance, without my glasses, they look like the hats lancers used to have. The base piece is an prefab piece from the TLG, a firefighters hovercraft set, my wife bought it for me a few years ago.

    Reinforcements from every part of the OL empire converged to the New World, as an result of the escalation of the colonial war. The cuirassiers are heavy cavalrymen, wearing chest armours, called "plastron", they ride on tall horses and are used to pierce through enemy's lines. Troop: 30men Location: Eltina

    The capture of King's Port symbolizes the triumph of the Oleon and its allies.At Crecopia, the expats loyal to the monarchy see it as a signal of rallying, and volunteers from the aristocratie refugeed in OL settlement formed a company of lancers. Since the so-called revolution, the former Mardierian nobility, hunted and oppressed by Oldis's lackeys, was forced to live in clandestinity. Now, with the help of the bluecoats, they finally got a chance to express themselves, with a bang.

    Excellent! Nice perspective, and nice scene too, it reminds of that famous photo of the WWII.

    While the small group of redcoats gathered around the town of Aurelia, the commander of an artillery position stood on the top of an old bunker, began to observe the ennemy's movement with his spyglass. The artillery position was the partially covered by the outgrown, thus providing some sort of natural camouflage. Without a word, the artillerymen made their gun ready, and waited for the order from their officer. Edit: It seems that OL can still raise 10 men in Aurelia, so this is a troop build now. A peloton of artillerymen to be licensed in Aurelia.

    Looks great! It's always pleasing to see so many minifigs in one build. Lot of nice details too.
  14. Bodi
    Somewhere in the vicinity of the town of Pamu, in a foggy morning, a few silhouettes appeared on the horizon, soon, another group of men showed themselves and the two parties came closer to each other slowly.

    Nice technique with the tent, but it appears that the pic has different shades, is it intentional?
  16. Bodi
    Nice diorama. I like the red shakos the gunmen are wearing, definitely should get some those too,

    The roof looks great! It may require a lot of pieces to build it but the result is worth the efforts. Wait, is it Master Splinter on the tenon?

    Thank you, glad you like it. Thank you for the comment! Thank you! I used hinges plates to connect the sides, giving them a smoother tranisition between different sections. Thanks, I think you have found the problem with these prefab hulls, if we want to have a realistic look, they don't fit with the minifigs, unless we are building smaller boats. I made them by my own, with fine canvas and a pair of scissors. Looking forward to your VOC ship! Thank you!

    For the ropes, I used to go to a model shop to buy them, but I guess any types of linen thread could do the job too, of diameters varying from 0.6mm to 2mm.

    @Thomas Waagenaar It's a very nice looking vessel, I like how large it is, it should be a real beast once finished. For the sagging, I think it can be solved with a few thread. by attaching them on the masts and on the hull, like on real sail ships.

    Glad you like it, Count. Thank you for the frontpaging!

    Nice build, I like the tents, and the base looks great!

    Oleon has now a fort in King's Port.
  24. Bodi
    In the courtyard of the bastion in King's Port, a ceremony was given to different services that have conributed to the capture of the city. The bastion. IC OL's soldiers have repaired the ancient TV royal fort to put it into their own service. OOC: Oleon has won a royal fort microprize from a past challenge, but it hasn't been used till now.

    Very nice sistershipping build, Cap. Now all you have to do is to build a whole ships from that stern. It's also nice to see these classic bluecoats and that dude under deck, carrying a crate with a single hand, he must be working out everyday.
