Thanks for the Comments! I've been working on a Revell Model Kit of the HMS Victory so I haven't got round to working on my Lego, Model kit!

I bought one of their Jeeps at Fort Nelson infact! I went there and saw what looked like Lego on the way into the Fort. Once we came out, I saw it in the Giftshop, But they only had the Desert version, So I bought it and I have to say it looks nice! But it is very oversized from the real Willys Jeep. It's taller than a Figure but very well built! It has a sweet engine compartment, With a brick shaped as an engine, The Gas Canister is rubbish though, I managed to MOD it to a Lego version by added some clips and bits. I also modded the AT-Gun that I got, Heavily, so it's extremely Lego look! I'll post some pictures later when I get round to taking 'em!

Mine are: - Master and Commander - So many times I can recite the words! - Saving Private Ryan - Shaun of the Dead - Tintin Collection (Not really a Movie but I can recite every word of the series) - Only Fools and Horses - Kung Fu Hustle - Saints and Soldiers And alot more that I forgot.

A special smiley for a special day!

Heres a quick MOC: Saint George was a Turkish Knight but he was adopted the Patron saint of England, Just like Patrick of Ireland. Most of the earlier saints come from the Mediterranean area. This because it is initially where the church was strongest. Even St.Patrick was not Irish. A saint was chosen as a patron not because of his nationality but for the inspiration given by his courage. Saint George's bravery was clearly admired by many hence his popularity as a patron in many places including England. At a time when people firmly believed that saints had extraordinary powers, it was thought he would be a protector. Since saints were regarded as guardians and were adopted by choice, several countries can share the same patron or adopt a saint that does not originate from their nation. We celebrate it because in England, a holiday in honour of St George, to be kept on 23 April, was declared by the Synod of Oxford in 1222; and St George had become acknowledged as Patron Saint of England by the end of the fourteenth century. It's strange, In the old day there would be a flag out of every house, But because of the new multi cultural England, some people have complained its too "English" which is just plain stupid. When it's St. Patricks day, Its all over the TV! St. Georges day....Nothing. But luckily, Boris Johnson is urging to make it a fully celebrated holiday. I've seen one Flag today, But we will see more during the World Cup!

Indeed! But it's not always French vs British, It's usually just Blue vs Red, however, for me, I class Bluecoats as French.

Indeed! Everyone knew it would be me to create a England topic!

Huzzah for England! Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah! God save the gracious Queen, Long live the noble Queen, God save the Queen: Send her victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us: God save the Queen. Happy St. Georges Day everybody!

In my opinion, the Redcoat & Bluecoat joke is the only thing that gives Classic-Pirates.com any views at all. In fact, it is the main, if not the only point I visit this forum! P.S. I'm writing this on the Wii!

No, He just realised how suicidal it was to be on the Bluecoats, I mean, Come on, Just look at you for example!

Jawohl! Just last week my friends Re-enactment group "GrossDeutschland" fought against a Russian Re-enactment group, 2nd Guards Rifle Division, there. I'm hoping to join the German group in the future, He is urging me that I can join soon, Because someone is already re-enacting at age 16, But I will probably leave it a while because of the cost. Heres some vids from the event I found. Final Battle My friend is the German soldier who is checking the dead. The Germans usually lose but get to put up a good fight, It's just cause there the "bad guys". My friend is the second German, The large man who is helping the Luftwaffe officer once shot, he ends up kicking him. Heres some images my friend took on the day:

I see my German Helmet request is done! Looks terrific! Thank's mate!

Yeah, It was super loud, After the first shot you can hear my dad say "God Damn!".

Ah Right.

Heres my Video of it, I put it on .

I don't understand the point of your post? I may just be reading it wrong.

Well it is but you can't notice any Napoleonic Features. Partly because its far up the hill from the Port, So it was a backup defence. However from the view of the walls, you can see how deeply built into the Hill the Fort was. Fort Amherst is the Biggest surviving Napoleonic fort in the Europe but it strangely isn't owned. The Royal Armouries owns some museums and Fort Nelson but strangely, not the biggest fort in Europe, Fort Amherst is owned by a Charity. We should get together a large donation for a Eurobricks day out for everyone who wants to come to England!

Last Wednesday, I visited Fort Nelson, Ok, It wasn't as good (Napoleonic styled) as Fort Amherst, but it was more of a History of British Artillery. We got to see a real British 25-Pounder fire 2 rounds, And blimey was it loud! Anywho, Heres a few things we saw within the Fort. The Entrance + Me: The Fort Walls: My Duke of Wellington impression: A Giant Double barreled...Anti...Tank? Musket?: I loved that gun, I just had too: The Dragon Cannon, It was vicious!: A German "Gunner's Quadrant" shaped like a Axe, Gold plated so it looked like the Gunners were armed!: My captured Dutch swivel gun: Proof: A Triple Barreled Cannon, Gotta get some of those for the Unicorn!: View from the Fort (My Panoramic view kind of failed, I was wobbling on a thin stone to see over the walls): The Mortars from Empire: Total War!: And last but not least, My prized picture. A Dutch cannon, captured at the Battle of Waterloo, from the French, Jackpot for the Brits! In your face Bluecoats! Captured from both my enemies! Wahahaha! Overall it was a good day! Hoping to go back in the Summer with Blackmoor and Croissant!

I am ashamed if you leave Redwater, You will disgrace yourself against the Redcoat Empire, Your families and Friends will be arrested as "Prisoners of War". As will you. And eventually executed for treason. So, I'd re-think your change...

But the Unicorn has taken well more than 1000 Bricks to build, Are you honestly telling me that a Frigate will need more?!

It's a tutorial, It's there for you to copy completely. Seriously? My HMS Unicorn, Which is on Prefabs, which is much much much bigger than a frigate cost £300 which is only $497 AUD! I'm not sure your checking for the best prices if it costs you that much for your Frigate!

The Knights face is gonna be mine! I bugsy's the face damn it! Its a "Pimped" version of my sig-fig now! Nice Review, The set looks awesome to buy and enjoy playing with for hours, I did the same when I bought a small "Knights Kingdom II" set, I built it whislt I was watching the opening to Olympics a few years ago.

Well If you think about it, Most battles or assaults are supposed ambushes. When someone trys to attack a Fort, They are not sure whether the enemy know they are coming, so they try to ambush, But if the Ambush fails to suprise, they call it a "Battle". Not many battles where fought by Generals shaking hands saying "Let the best man win".

I'm admiral? Sweet! I'll voice my figure, Just have to get my Microphone working first...I'll try put on a more adult voice!

Nor are you in mine Ratshot. Unless you took part in the assault on Sevastapol?
