  1. One of the two larger modules: Amortug is being ruled by The Tartan family for two centuries now. Two hundred years ago the great Or Tartan, who was a general than, overthrew the old steward who was gathering treasure just for himself. He also invaded clan lands several times and was provoking the Elves constantly by mining underneath there outposts. This made Or decide it was enough. He cut of the stewards hands and feet. Than he hung him in the middle of the gate while wearing lots of jewelry. The steward died from hunger while hanging there, like lots of Amortug's citizens did because of him. He died while staring to himself in the reflections of the diamonds and when his last breath came out he said he'll be claiming his treasure some day. Because of what he said Or also slaughtered his whole family by burning the old citadel to prevent them from taking Amortug back again some day... Since than Amortug is know for being one of the best fortified cities with it's high walls, fortified gates and large citadel. Or was able to make a treaty with the Elves to restore some balance, while this guys will never get a long. And he made peace with the clan lands. Most of his daughters even married clan leader's sons. So that explains why most of Amortug's inhabitants aren't recognized as being dwarves. But the dwarf blood and spirit is still running through the vanes of Amortug's inhabitants! Let us celebrate two hundred years of Tartar rule! Of course the highest room of Amortug needs a princess in it!
  2. Most welcome! When are you going to sign up for Mitgardia?
  3. Great entries guys, this will be hard to judge for sure! If anyone has forgotten to put a link of his entry in this topic please send me a pm!
  4. Most castles and fortresses we get to see here are based on the ones still standing in Europe. But Wineyard looked a bit further for inspiration. And the result of that is amazing! Check out all the details in History Forum!
  5. Have you noticed the sewer/tunnel entrance. It leads to the wall were a contraption creates a waterfall.
  6. (Legoworld Copenhagen countdown: 4 weeks left! Amortug will be on display for the last time at Kopenhagen. So I’ll count down the days by showing detailed photos of two modules every week.) The gates of Amortug are protected by a large gatehouse. It even contains a double gate! Inside you’ll be lowered with an elevator because of the height difference. If the first gate is breached, this will prevent enemies from charging in. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ It’s because of the mines that Amortug is known for its wealth. The mines can be entered from within the city. And it’s not only gold what the mines hold, also iron ore and more.
  7. Thanks guys! I'm really pleased that everyone likes the rockwork. Especially because there's no snot or other colors. So it shows that vegetation, shadows and angles works fine as well Too bad you're not attending. Unfortunately I won't be going to Skaerbaek. I went three years in a row, so it's time to visit new events
  8. Love the dwarf and that pastry is well a great idea!
  9. I love how you've made those wings, it really feels like dragon scale armor!
  10. Welcome to Eurobricks Martini. Not everyone appreciates asking for instructions and most of us don't even make instructions! Why don't you give it a good look and try to make a version of your own! And feel free to introduce yourself
  11. It seems you solely posted here to promote your project. So I deleted the link! Please use the report button instead of responding like this!
  12. (Legoworld Copenhagen countdown: 5 weeks left! Amortug will be on display for the last time at Kopenhagen. So I’ll count down the days by showing detailed photos of two modules every week.) When under siege, Zophim's Tower is the ideal place to get out of the city. Or for getting food into the city as well. The steep rocks prevent invaders for climbing it and even if they'll try, it's pretty easy to shoot them. It also spots ships from enemies from far away. ((Zophim means "place for a watchman")) Test run for getting food into the city. ___________________________________________________________________________ Of course the dwarves are skilled in building bridges. But why put effort in that while nature provides one for you! You've got to love burps!
  13. And closed! Wonderful stuff everyone! If you've entered but forgot to put a link in this topic, just send me a pm!
  14. A quick photo could qualify, but a wip is a whole different story! So try to finish it, or this is your final entry. Same goes for your other entry. On the other side, you've got half a day left!
  15. From now on you've got around 13 hours left.... Officially, because I'll be at work around that time, so I'll close this is topic when I'm back
  16. The secret is out! Now we finally know how the dwarves make such fine armor and weapons! Check out this fun build made by Dubbagrim in History Forum!
  17. That's not your task what so ever! You don't like it or you think a topic is seriously derailing, that's what the report button is for. So stay on topic please!
  18. Just a few days left before Challenge III will come to an end! Check out all the wonderful entries we've got so far in the Guilds of Historica!
  19. (Legoworld Copenhagen countdown: 6 weeks left! Amortug will be on display for the last time at Copenhagen. So I’ll count down the days by showing detailed photos of two modules every week.) The Citadel tower, Amortug's tallest tower. From up here the guards secure the safety of it's citizens. __________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Lake Gatehouse is the perfect way to escort ambassadors and representatives of other guilds safely into the city. Not only is it safer it also shows the grandness of Amortug.
  20. Great work as always. I really like the landscaping in the rural scene and that floor filled with sloops looks really good!
