  1. Great write up! And I must praise commander Jousha ( @Spud The Viking) for his valiant work in giving the HMS Reslience a proper send off!
  2. I know the Accountant/s are a bit overwhelmed, but when time is found could you add Brickford Landing to the Settlement list please? Thanks!
  3. Your builds are definitely improving! A great addition to Brickford Landing!
  4. Nice build @Sir Kingston! Good to see the Lieutenant is a man of many talents, that is a trait we will need in a growing settlement!
  5. Thankle you! I'm glad the intended atmosphere came across! Lol! If you noticed from the beach landing. He was cutting firewood there too!
  6. Thank you! With smaller builds like this it's much easier to spend more time on actually creating a nice tree canopy. Thank you!
  7. Lol... Problem fixed... it was on my end... I wasn't typing in the usernames correctly...
  8. Thanks! Yeah, for me, I can add multiple people to a PM in the draft state, bit as soon as I try to send it it won't let me. I get a asterisk that says: *(username) can't receive personal messages.
  9. So I've got a question regarding PMs. I'm a Count with over 1600 posts, but I can't send a message to more then one person or add someone to an existing pm... I thought this was possible around the Knight rank?? Any light someone could shed on this would be most helpful!
  10. Which is why we are easily the best faction!
  11. I dont have much time for a detailed reply but here are a few remarks. I wouldn't really say I'm frustrated, just a little bummed out. I won't be losing any sleep over this by any means. I will sister ship or rebuild in the future. In the end, the KPA was a fun read and I accept the outcome. The might of the Corrish Navy was bested by superior numbers, not superior forces. I enjoying build large vessels and now I just need to build a few more!
  12. Thank you! For my brick collection, a 32x32 base plate is my preferred size and easiest to add details to. As to the pineapples, who knows what will happen!
  13. In short, yes? I would very much be interested in seeing some more stats and numbers on this! Between my three ships this is what I had for combat stats Firepower - 27 Crew - 20 Hull - 25 Basically a bunch of junks beat the three toughest ships in all of the Corrington navy? I bring your attention to the KPA (Vol 3, Issue 6) August-October 618 when the Lightning valiantly defeated three black flag ships: This is the only way I could see the Loti winning. But I'm sure my ships would have slaughtered them before they got that close! Again, it should have been a slaughter. Three ships with a combined 248 cannons should have destroyed the loti. Especially considering the fact that you Corries are supposed to have a well versed navy force. I'm not saying it should be retconned but... the only conceivable way the Loti could have pulled it off is if they managed to get close under cover of night. But I still feel the ships should have been able to outrun them if the battle got too intense. I'm all for balance, and obviously I'm slightly biased on the whole matter as it is my ships in question, however, I think class should be a more deciding factor in ship battles. Say a class 10 vs a class 6-10 would be a fair fight and more or less laugh at anything less. Just my two cents. Also, If anyone wants to do an MRCA result build on this I would support it fully! To put it bluntly, I suck at micro building at the moment, so I'd be interested in seeing a mini HMS Resilience!
  14. Thank you very much! I've updated the thread as well, so you can see more of the details.

  16. Pineapples for Peace? After getting the field camp set up for the enlisted troops, Major Brickford and his aide set about making a campsite ready for themselves. After the tent had been put up, they decided to relax a bit after a long journey. Officers Field Camp 3 by LM71Blackbird, on Flickr While the Major removed his sword and hat for evening, Anthony played a tune on his lute. In the background, a redheaded Highlander that they picked up in Spudkirk was busy happily cutting firewood. Officers Field Camp 4 by LM71Blackbird, on Flickr Then suddenly, out of the bushes came two men looking like quite scruffy! They looked like native hunters, but there was something very odd about them. Officers Field Camp 5 by LM71Blackbird, on Flickr Being on high alert for things like this, all there men sprang into action! Nathaniel quickly grabbed his sword prepared to fight to the death white the Highlander and Anthony reached for their guns. Officers Field Camp 6 by LM71Blackbird, on Flickr The situation was quickly diffused when one of the natives quickly sheathed his machete and then bowed in front of Major Brickford. Only one word was spoken, "Peace", before they disappeared into the bushes once again. Officers Field Camp 7 by LM71Blackbird, on Flickr All the men stood around their campfire dumbfounded asking just one question... what in the world had just happened? Officers Field Camp 8 by LM71Blackbird, on Flickr ---------------------------------------------------------- My entry for category C! Technically on time and technically a bit late at the same time, hopefully leadership will see fit to let it slid in? Thanks for looking and C&C are welcome and appreciated! Overview of the whole build in the spoiler below
  17. In my opinion, it should have been a Loti slaughter. Close to 250 cannons and pushing 2000 men in my three ship squadron. But, alas, a couple of junks and fire ship took down 2 of Corrington's mightiest vessels.
  18. Sweet! Hopefully we can get another pirates set out of it!
