Brilliant build! The courthouse looks great and the guillotine and trial scene is hilarious

Your factory is really well designed, you can instantly see what it is without it looking too modern for the time period. The sugar cane fields around it really makes the scene for me, well done!

Thank you ! The water in the sunset image are transparent light blue, but when I rendered the image I chose a yellow~orange background instead of the white and I turned off the light setting entirely. And for the cannon fire I used the "Luminous Amber" colour, and finally luminous soft amber for the ship's lanterns. @NOD @Professor Thaum @Kai NRG @Thomas Waagenaar Thank you all for the encouraging comments!

The ETTC Fara, class 5 merchant brig Warehouse in Stormhaven

task 3 The Merchant Marine class 5 medium square rigged brig

As Queenston grew larger by the day, the need for certain materials were quickly becoming a problem. One of these materials was cotton, the settlement had welcomed a large amount of settlers these past months which led to a dire need for cotton with which to make cloth for clothes and sheets. Being the most isolated settlement of the Empire, the Mayor had to rely on long trade voyages for any material or product Queenston did not yet have the capabilities to produce itself. Thus the Fara and ETTC Muharib were sent in consort to Queenston, with their cargo holds filled with goods for the settlement. The Fara sailed all the way from Jameston, with supplies and large amounts of cotton and seeds, while the Muharib collected timber and wool from Wullhalm. The two ships met up in Spudkirk before setting off on their dangerous voyage to the Bastion of the East. The New Heaven Sea had been filled with privateers and raiders of the Lotus Empire, hungry wolves searching for riches and glory. As luck would have it, after a couple of days at sea, the small consort woke up to a large war Junk lurking on the horizon. Had they not been on such an important task for the Mayor, there is no doubt our men would have sailed right at the Junk with guns blazing and a sword in each hand. But the settlement could not afford to loose any of the cargo, so they kept course and sailed as fast as they could, while firing with everything they had at the Loti Junk. For each hour that passed, the large and heavy warship fell farther and farther behind, until it eventually cut the chase. The two brigs arrived safely and on schedule to a heart warming welcome at Queenstons docks, where Mayor Scarver offered them free food and rooms at the tavern. The Muharib ended up leaving shortly after with sugar from the settlements new Royal Plantation. But the crew of the Fara suffered some damage during the shootout with the Junk, so the ship stayed anchored in port while the wounded were treated. The crew of the Fara even received some new members, as a handful of ex-privateers joined their crew. These experienced sailors had been part of Edward Scarver’s crew before he became Mayor of the colony. They had stayed there for awhile and helped wherever they could, but their hearts yearned for the sea, so after a final feast with their old cremates and captain, they set sail with the Fara. As they sailed into the sunset, Amin Raza, one of the carpenters of Scarver’s old crew on the Andromache, climbed on to the ratlines and listened to how calm it was. Just a few months ago you couldn’t spend more than a few days at sea without crossing one or several Loti pirates. But now they had spent a week at sea, and they had seen… nothing… crossed no-one… During the time he had stayed in Queenston, the allied invasion of New Oleonda was in full swing. He deducted that they must have pulled away their forces back to the island, now that our foot soldiers are knocking at their door. Perhaps they reassembled their fleet, preparing for a counter attack, hoping to separate our army by hindering our fleets from supplying them. Perhaps they left, perhaps all the pirates and privateers scattered away in fear of fighting in a loosing war… ---- This is my first entry to the Merchant Marine task from the GoC. I originally built the ship months ago, for @Professor Thaum as the prize to his upcoming contest, but it was changed to a microlicence instead. So I reworked the the brig into the Fara, a merchant brig armed with 12 cannons and 4 swivel guns. To be licenced as a class 5 medium square rigged brig for the ETTC. PS: It was my first time using photoshop so please don't hesitate giving me advice if you have any!

Well deserved statue and even more well deserved title! Thank you for helping grow the settlement, all your mocs have been great!

Supply depot with military docks, Large Artisan for Corrington

Ah I see, but I am pretty sure that you can still licence it now and it will simply be pushed over to your next month licences. At least that's what happened to my builds when I licenced 5 in one month

The Reds and the Royals, built by @Bricksbypidy

Beautiful street, I absolute love the pillars! If you want to licence the build, it would fit as a cultural property :)

Fantastic moc! I love the angled placement of the Hacienda, it's not much but it ads a ton to the overall scenery. I loved how you built the roofs, and the long pathways covered with archs reminds me a lot of Ac4 black flag. Well done!

Hacienda with sugar cane plantation, Royal Plantation for Corrington

Itsm's in task 14, I see you submited it to task 5, but that task dosen't earn you any money. If I were you I would submit it to task 14 which states that the crown will purchase the building for twice the licence value, in your case that will earn you 150dbs!

Primary School, large educational build for the settlement

I'll licence the property asap, thank you for your contribution. That's correct, posting a link in the appropriate GoC thread is all you have to do. There are excel scheets that get updated by Ayrlego every month to keep everyone updated about their profits/investment/ etc So you won't need to keep track of that yourself, the link to the sheet is posted in the summary account thread

Welcome to the game and welcome to Corrington! This an amazing build and your timing couldn't be better, as Queenston was planing the construction of a school as soon as possible! Now we won't have to for another while, thank you. You can licence the build via the licencing forms which you can find in the Master Index. However as a new player you don't have the funds to licence such a large build for yourself, but with your permission I would love to licence the property directly to Queenston as we were planning to do with my (currently nonexistent) school. This means the revenue goes directly to Queenston's coffers which will be used to grow the settlement and defend it with forts, ships and guards. But you can still make profits with it by registering it as a free build (this you should do for every single moc you make, as it will give you 10dbs each time) You can also submit the property for task 14 in the Glory of Corrington thread, this way the Crown will pay you ×2 the licencing fee of the build (essentially you sell the school to Queenston). As Mayor of Queenston I would be happy to fill out the licencing forms for you. Don't hesitate in contacting me if you have any questions :)

The company welcomes it's largest addition to the fleet, the Earl of Abergavenny! And the ETTC Sussex has recieved a new paint job

A small detail I noticed that bothers me quite a bit is the small anchor, you should really consider building some brick built anchors for ships this big Ships of this size would have 4-6 huge anchors!

One can only wonder what you're planning to do with all these ships, surely it can't just be for trade ... The ship is fantastic! But it isn't welcome anywhere near Queenston

Welcome to BoBS! Been waiting on your story for a while now, it was a great read! Looking forward to seeing la souris

The la dscaping is great! The trees look really nice and I like the aesthetic from the curved slopes on the terrain. My only "criticism" is that I wish you chosen a better pose with the rifle. By taking off the right hand from the torso, you could have made him hold the musket with both arms in a realistic way

Love the look of the house in the middle of the jungle. Glad to see you back!

Been looking forward to this for so long now! Thank you to the crew of the WTC Red Angel for buying enough time for the Hms Alexandra to rejoin the fight! A shame about the Dominance, but with our new heavy frigates built by @boeing_787_8_dreamliner , we'll get her back in no time

Welcome to BoBS!! Happy to see a new player join another faction than Corrington Looking forward to your builds and stories
