Great news that no one died last night, it seems our guards have done their job well. Unforunately though, we have no new clues. Did anyone discover anything important last night?

Thanks for the link Erdbeereis! The King's Chariot doesn't look too bad to me. We get some great dark blue and pearl gold pieces, as well as 2 more trolls, who I can never get enough of. The chariot itself is nice, but far too big and bulky. I would have liked to have two horses drawing this along, as it looks like it would be hard work for just one. The Drawbridge Defense looks great, I love all of the detail that has gone into the tower. The angled plate on the ramp is nice too, though it doesn't look very stable to me. Like Sandy I hope that the ramp will be connected to the tower in some way, as I imagine it will be a bit of a pain to adjust the two pieces so that the drawbridge fits onto both well. The minifigs in this set are great , with the queen, jester, golden knight (with dark blue flare ) and the returning skellies. Considering the inclusion of the queen and jester, I'm really hoping that the tower interior will have a nice royal court or something similar. I'm not very impressed with the Troll Fortress however. I feel that the inclusion of light bley breaks the colour scheme of the previous troll sets. I would've much preferred dark bley, or even better, more brown/dark brown to create a more wooden and ragged feel of the 2008 troll siege engines. On the plus side, we get dark brown clubs for the giant trolls and the troll shaman. It also looks as though, like the Agents Volcano Base, the fortress can be closed up to create a more solid look, as all of the structures look to be connected by hinges. Actually, looking at the knight's body compared to his face, the knight already is in pearl gold.

Thanks everyone. The head is from a lego bubblebath bottle I found Apparently they're very hard to come across: Thanks again for the comments.

Thanks for the link Erdbeereis! I can't say much about Ambush in Cairo at the moment as it looks very preliminary, but it looks like we'll be getting some great minifigs, and like Shanghai Chase, they'll all be unique. I like the idea of a stall, as I could do with some more fruit. Now, is it just me or is Marion shown on the top of the box? It could be possible that she is on the box, but was cut out, though it does seem a little unlikely that we'll get 4 figs in such a small set. The Air Chase looks great. Both planes look well-built, though my only concern is that the cockpit of the German plane doesn't look airtight, which I hope will be fixed. Aside from that, it looks great, I love Henry Jones Sr.'s gun turret. Thanks again, I'm really looking forward to the Summer Indy sets.

They all look great fallentomato, very similar to their lego counterparts. I especially like the monkey, even more so now with the tail. All he needs now are a pair of cymbals. It's a real shame that the whip and cheese slopes don't come in old brown though, as the different shades are a little distracting. The parrot looks great too. I love the way you've made the beak, and the addition of the tail really adds to the parrot-look. I can't say much about the shark, but it's looking good at the moment, though I agree it does look a tad too big. Perhaps using the viking horns rather than the stud teeth would help to shrink it a little. Really, these are great. Thanks for sharing.

B-V-4F Upon being promoted to fire chief, Hubert was warned by the other firefighters, "don't let all that power go to your head." Unfortunately, he did not heed their advice. Enjoy! Feedback appreciated.

Wow, that's a very realistic piano you've made. It's nice and cleanly made, and the shape is perfect. I love all of the details, from the strings inside the grand piano to the antenna holding the lid up. Considering the restrictions of LDD this MOC is truly superb. Great work.
-
I love it. Great use of the trans-clear dome piece. Though I find it very hard to believe that fruit will be the only thing that gets blended.
-
Very nice! The tree looks great, I love the gritty ground and the little trolls are hilariously cute! Can we expect to see an MOC detailing the breaking open of the pi

I liked it. The plot was was very amusing, and the voice acting really helped to add to the humor. The animation was particularly good, very smooth and lifelike. Great job, I hope to see more brickfilms from you in the future.

I think Richie may be our best bet at the moment. He's been inactive up until recently and is acting very defensively now that he has been accused. Now he has claimed that he has a night action. He could be lying to get out of being voted, or he could have a night action as a rat. Otherwise, he could be telling the truth and have an important role for us. in this case, it is likely that he will be killed by the rats tonight. I do not believe we should vote for him yet if at all until we have further proof. I suggest that none of us vote until at least the evening, as it is likely that we will get more clues as the day progresses, and once you've voted, you can't unvote.

No, I find it quite likely that it was the rats. Tony did nothing to arouse any suspicion yesterday, so I find it doubtful that a vigilante would've done it. It could have been a serial killer, though considering that the attacker used a tommy gun, I find it unlikely. An arsonist is most likely out of the question too. I've never heard of that story before, but it sounds very interesting. I'd love to hear more about it some time. I don't believe we should trust that theory. You can never rule anyone out in this game... of life. It's like they always say: you're guilty until proven innocent.
-
Yes, I too find Zabrina's explanation for being late suspicious. When you're late, it usually means you've been up to something that night, and since she didn't admit to doing anything, I assume that this night action isn't a good one. I do wonder why anyone would want Tony dead though. He didn't anger anyone yesterday nor did he seem to have any information. He didn't say or do anything suspicious either, which would suggest that it wasn't a vigilante but a rat who killed him (the other giveaway was the way the attacker's gun went 'ratatatat' ).

The Baritones 2 Introduction & Discussion Thread
MagPiesRUs replied to Hinckley's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
Very nice, I love the pics. I suppose Tony's love for ducks was a reference to The Sopranos? -
Oh dear, it looks like someone had it in for the 'Tony' family last night. Poor Tony, you will be dearly missed my friend. At least there is some good news though. The filthy rat Boyd is dead - and from what the FBI said, it seems he had an important night action. You are our teacher, Iris, and we are your pupils (Geddit? Iris? Pupils? ... Oh, nevermind. ).

The Baritones 2 Introduction & Discussion Thread
MagPiesRUs replied to Hinckley's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
It's 12:02 and Day 2 hasn't started. Very disappointing. -
Temple of Doom? Do you mean Shanghai Chase or the 'Temple of the Doom' set coming out in the Summer?
-
You must be one of the lucky ones then. You poor thing. Good thinking brother, you could be right. I will not vote for Boyd though until we're given some actual evidence. It's too much of a gamble for me, we've already lost one loyal man today. I feel we have to be patient, tommorow is sure to bring us bring us more clues. Until then, let's drink and be merry try to get as much information as possible.
-
Mind you, from what I remember only the two SW Battlepacks, 8401 City People and the Creator sets were there. I presume it will be another week or so before the other January sets come out...
-
It looks great! The designs look wonderful and it's nice to see ships without such exuberant colours again. It looks as if we'll be getting some great minifigs too. I was thinking more along the lines of a Necron.
-
While looking at the different ranks is a good start, I wouldn't say that it's a fact that all ranks have one rat in them. I think we should remember that in the previous Baritone game... of life, the affiliations were randomly assigned to the players... of life. What's to say that this method hasn't been used in this game (of life, that is)? Therefore I don't believe we should rely too much on motives and ranks when deciding our vote (though as I said, it is a good place to start).
-
Good observation Johnny, though I believe that this is just a coincidence, just as my brother Perry looks just like that Lee fellow. Besides, I think we've had confirmation that roles were assigned randomly. Welcome Stanton, how are you? Sober, eh? We'll soon fix that! Protecting the fronts may be a good idea, but now that you've announced it, the rats will know who we're protecting. I certainly hope that this wasn't an attempt to distract our guards so that the rats can kill the rest of us freely.
-
It is possible that Adalaide is a day killer, though considering the clues and that she was shown killing Pedro, it's quite unlikely. Perhaps when we find a rat, instead of voting for them, we could make them insult Adalaide's hair...
-
Understood. I just hope that no one is keeping any valuable information to themselves is all. It'd be great to check things over before we go off killing members of the family.
-
Perhaps those who have voted already could tell us who they have suspicions about here. It don't feel right scheming behind each other's backs. I've always found that if you express your concerns man-to-man, they're sorted out much faster. Either that, or we find more booze.
