I like it! Like others have said the posing and faces work really well with the scene. I didn’t expect the wall to catch on. It was something I saw once and thought it would work really well. Glad you like it!

Thank you @Ayrlego that troop count makes more sense. I did a quick count of my troops by goi. Through old posts and I came up with a similar count so I’m glad I’m not miscounting by a lot.

Could I request a troop audit as well. While I feel like my current troop count is fairly accurate, I want to double check cause I did not think I was that high. My current count makes it look like I have my own private army

Thank you! This definitely helps with future building, licensing and recruiting.

That’s awesome thanks for the heads up! I’ve been waiting to order the set myself

Thank you so much for doing that! I'm sure it took alot of time and I as a player is very grateful.

Thank you! And for more angles here is a spoiler though it has different figs and has a different story it uses the same base model. Haha, I think the sad part is that I upgraded my table to a significantly larger one about a month ago , and then started to remodel our bathroom which has taken up alot of my time.

Thank you! Thank you. I went through 3 iterations before i settles on this version. Thank you, It was hard trying to create some terrain for the cannons without it looking a bit too square and flat. I know it took me long enough. Funny enough it has sat on my table for a good two months! Thank you. the mystery of who those people are is the fun of it. Though I will reveal some characters in a later build.

In Eltina, two individuals were heard finishing up a transaction. As men of foreign descent sign up with an individual with a parchment and quill. “My dear Captaine that concludes all negotiation. I shall have my men bring you the supplies along with these new recruits.” Said the man in the burgundy clothing. In the same area, three men can be heard describing there new orders. “Are you sure we have to dress in these?” Asked the man in the Morion. “Sergeant's orders.” Answered another man Somewhere on one of the bridges near Nola Mar. A man in a wide brimmed hat with a yellow feather and a yellow cloak beckons to the men around him. “Companions, a gift from Lord De Moncey.” This is a build I've had for months now. Glad I have been finally able to post it. C&C welcome. This serves as a recruitment and free-build, +1 Company (30 men) in Eltina.

I agree, expanding it was a great idea. All the details are very cool and the scene gives a sense of busyness without being over crowded.

Thank you. That was a fun category to build for. As far as prizes go, when are we allowed to activate them? Is it now since the winners for the category have been announced, or is it after the entire challenge has closed?

So it did that to me. I think it’s forces combine posting if you do it in quick succession. Maybe just copy and paste the new post underneath one of these posts. I had to do that in order for it not to merge

I like the troops and the scene is very dynamic. I get the sense of a road being build with all the components being put into place. Great idea of creating a unit that is usual used for civil building but also can be redeployed for military operations.

Awesome build. The poses reflect the story well. The combination of minifigs are great. The story is fascinating and along with the units background.

Unit Name: Hussar d'Oleon Unit type/specifications: light cavalry Uniform Description: Braided jackets of any color with a pelisse and gold epaulets. Breeches of any color along with a shako. Some shakos are adorned with gold braids or larger feathers. Equipment Description: Flintlock Pistol and Saber Recruitment center: Oleon Proper Unit history and description: While Hussars have been around for quite some time, the folklore for these dashing cavalrymen really took shape during the Juniper War. They were regarded as skirmishers and due to their courage, though some say ego, they made headway into Corrish lines causing disruption while the main forces came from behind. Some accounts say that as many as ten Hussars were enough to cause a big enough disruption to Corrish soldiers that they were flee. Other accounts describe how Hussars would inscribe their musket ball only for enemy officers and when they shot it, it would direct itself toward their target. Whatever these stories, one thing was for certain, they were used in strategic ways that enabled victories during this time. When not on the battlefield they were found frequently in taverns and public squares, telling stories of their dashing adventures and womanizing to boot. Hussars were known for their flamboyant dress and large mustaches which enabled them to bring a certain charisma to their stories. While open to all manner of class and status, most hussar groups had minor nobles who were set to inherit nothing from their family or adventurous commoners looking to make a name for themselves.

Thank you. Better late than never right. I loved this build because there was so much going on. On the flip side it was a pain to try an take pictures of because of the very same thing. I'm glad you liked the liveliness. I was going for crowed without being too crowded. Thank you! Haha thank you. Trying to make a good story with all going on was tough but I'm glad it worked out. And ofc I am the same way except I'm married to the person who cuts my hair so it is more of trying to find time. Thank you. I tried really hard to place furniture that would go with each house while also making sure it wasn't over crowded. Thank you. The different posed to make it look lively was fun. (We aim to be best dressed and even better at killing rats )

Thank you. the poses were a pain because the whole thing is flat tile so any small jerk of the build or my table tumbled every thing over lol. Glad it reminds you of that. I admit I haven't watched the series but I played beat the game (twice lol). Haha so am I. Thank you! I hope that maybe it could rival the pirates nonreligious chain. Join Oleon And thank you!

I like the nice little build. The border does help. As for the muskets, I agree. I have some myself that I can't wait to use in some builds.

A medium artisan build

A New Commission and Command May 620 Mere, Another day in Eltina. while most does are taken up by training with the troops and learning maneuvers, today was different. I was instructed to meet an official about some new arms shipment. While speaking with the official, Lyle refused to take of his hat. The indignity! Afterward I chastised him about it and that is how I found out why he always wears a hat. As a gentleman I immediately remedied the situation the hair cutter's shop. And of course my new rank requires a new outfit. The tailor had the perfect design with an amazing coat. Afterward we met with Sergeant Le Goff who had the newly arrived muskets along with a couple of other arms that was being supplied to us. While there we saw the 4th Company of the Légionnaires. Commonly known as the “Rogue” Company. Members of this company are made up of former Corrish citizen from the Juniper province as well as those who immigrated from Peppin, Myrph, Tam, and Belondia. A common feature of the regiment is the use of the tricorne over the commonly used shako that both the Forces de Armée as well as the Légionnaires. As always I miss you and cannot wait to see you.
