***** » Good morning! My name is Rool, and today I will show you how I live on the most astonishing planet in the galaxy: The imperial centre Coruscant. For the record, it's about 21 years since the new order brought peace and prosperity to the galaxy (and 2 years since the Death Star-incident by the way, but let's not talk about that). « » Coruscant is all about stories. There is so many of them. Come along and see... First something about me: I'm 25 years old and this is where I live. Level 91! I will not walk you through the appartment, as my mum is a bit shy and doesn't like holo-cams! Ah, there are my neighbours, Reesa and Perry. They're happily expecting a baby. If it's a boy, I think I'll propose to name him Sheev ... And there at the holophone booth, that's Mr. Silgran. Hello Mr. Silgran! « » Ah, hello Rool! The connection to the upper levels is bad again. Will you and your office do something about it?! « » Yes Mr. Silgran! ... So, where was I? Ah yes. I'm an assistant supervisor - « » Assistant to the supervisor! « » Yes thank you Mr. Leenart. So, I'm assistant to the supervisor of communications in this sector and responsible for the technical stuff so that the different levels and sectors can talk to each other. I will not show you my offices today though. That's boring. Instead, we'll start the day on the surface! « » Usually I do not visit the surface. The elevator is just too expensive. Can you imagine, there is millions of people living on the lower levels, never seeing true daylight all day! Oh, there is Mr. Silgran again. He's a salesman and got some business to do at the upper levels. And there is our protectors, the imperial officers and troopers! « » You see that? That's one of the imperial palace-tour gondolas! Isn't that romantic? I'm saving my credits for it. My mum dreams of a ride at sundown and the droid driver will sing for us ' O sunshine mine...' The skyscrapers are owned by those big galactic companies. Important business going on there at the CEOs office... Let's now go back to the inner city. « » This is my favorite place to have my lunch. Gnawricca's bar and drive-in. Gnawricca is a big non-human 'thing' but she does the best dika-soup of old town - unless you don't mind a hair or two on your plate and some alien company... Oh, seems like that Rodian is making trouble. Gosh, why do the non-humans never have their scan-docs at hand? Watch that KX- law enforcer droid. They're hard-line! « » Rool? We have a complete black-out on line 9! Subsector K-05 is down! The tech droid says it's a wiring issue at this node-ID. You need to fix that. « » Why not send the droid? « » The node is at the abanndoned industry levels and he's afraid. It's not good for his circuits. You go. Leenart over. « » Quiet now. We are at one of the low levels. I mean really low. The elevator didn't even had a knob for it - that low. Rumours have it that some folk live here without having seen daylight for generations. They turned weird and mad. Good that I have company. The sector security sent TK-111 with me. I feel safe under his protection. « » Will you stop talking to the holo-cam and go on with it? I have a bad feeling about this place! « » Ok, I fixed it. Some junk-rat or mine-crab bit through the cable protection, I guess... « ... » So this was a sneak-peek into my day in the greatest of all cities in the galaxy: Coruscant! Have a good one! « ***** I hope you liked the tour through my final build for the May the 4th contest. As you can see, the build is modular and depicts the many different levels one can find on Coruscant. Some more images of speeders, minifigs and the tower.

Fantastic entry and great catch of that scene. I'm still trying to figure out from which parts you managed to build the central bubble. It's so clever how you fixed and placed the fish. The use of perspective works also very well.

That Sith droid looks awsome and menacing! Overall cool entry for the duel.

Awsome! Cool character! Great for the mercs, challenge to the others. Welcome Can't help it, but it looks for me like Keeto Ranj was standing in front of a football (soccer) stadium entrance

By the way, is this a must?

Thanks, all of you. Appreciate it! I used... daylight . Happy it turned out this niecely, as I don't have any professional stage, nor have I made any post production. Plain white table and wall - the colorful model does it all

Thanks, I'm happy you like story and build Yes, forgot to mention that. The E-Wing is 100% series. The X-Wing and A-Wing are series but the colored parts I changed. I wanted to match the color scheme of the New Republic which seems to be blue in the Ahsoka series. The Z-95 is my entry for the M4-24. Check out some better images here: The airbase and the pilots bar is a homage to the Adelphi airbase from The Mandalorian. That's why it's at the shore and the bar is a mix of a beach house and a pilot cantina with their trophies I hope, that the moc here is eligible for double points, since it's a M4-24 and Mysteries cross-over Took me some time to figure out how to intergrate the ship into the story. Sorry, Max_Lego for being first with the Z-95 but I'm curious about your ship as well

It's just your sister visiting. Why all the fuss? « » Sorry, I can't help it, Lieutenant Partt. As we were patrolling the Rim, I haven't seen Zebby for nearly 6 months. I'm just sooo excited to see her again! She's my hero! « » I know, I know. You told me the story. Big sister. Legendary pilot. Leader of Aurora Squadron. The reason why you joined. She blew-up the Death Star too, right? Skoal! « » Ha-ha. But she did participate in the battle above Endor. She is truly one of the best. That's why they made her member of the Spittin' Chicklets! « » The what? « » C'mon. The Chicklets? The elite aerobatic squadron of the Republic! They performed that stunnin' maneuvre at the anniversary celebrations. Haven't you seen the holo? Ah, I wish I could have been there. « » No I haven't. Any pilot could fly these formations. It's the Astromechs doing all the calc. Plain and simple. It's combat, where true talent shows. « » Ah that's why you been hit by that Snub-Fighter? Twice. Weren't it for me, you'd be hovering somewhere between Daimla and Terminus. And by the way, the Spittin Chicklets fly Z-95s. No Astromech. « » Look I had an inertial stabilzer malfunction and - « » Oh, here she comes! « » Zebby! « Lil' Sis' Biz! So glad to see you, honey! « » What? She is your sister? Oh by the seven moons, no! « » Sorry? Do I know you? « » He's my wingman. Get to know Lieutenant Partt. « » Hrmpf. Oh yea, we know each other. « » Ah yes, backup crew for Endor, right? « » Backup crew... You cost me the cockpit! « » Indeed, My fighter had issues and they gave me yours. Sorry. I owe you. « » I should be wearing a medal! Instead I'm the backup crew. « » Poor Partt... « » What a joker. I came here 'cause the Republic command reactivated the Aurora Squadron! And I'm here to recruit you both to join me - « » ... « to next chapter >> ***** Here are two extra pics of the custom colored ships:

Hello, I'm presenting you today my entry for the Sabine's Paint Category: The Z-95 Headhunter, nicknamed "Spittin' Chicklet Nine". The starfighter is part of the New Republic aerobatic squadron "The Spittin' Chicklets". Piloted by talented Zebborah 'Zebby' Walsh, the Z-95 participated in the 1st anniversary of the victory against the Empire above Endor. The Spittin Chicklets showed their extraordinary skills with high adrenaline, wing-to-wing maneuvers and ended their show with a terrific fire work. Check out my Mysteries 'Return of the Lost Art' - Story for more info about Zebby! I based my Z-95 on the design from the Jedi Survivor video game. I hope you like it

***** » At the start of the third and final lap, Sebulba is in the lead – closely followed by Skywalker!!! « Beed ***** Hello everyone, this is my entry for the May, the 4th "The Phantom Menace" Category. TPM is probably the prequel movie I enjoy re-watching the most. Unlike some others, I like the plot and my highlight is definitely the pod race. I remember, as a child I got the 7131 Anakin’s Pod Racer as a gift. Back then, I already had the X-Wing, Y-Wing and TIE Advanced star fighters from the original trilogy and had plenty of fun playing dogfights with them. But as much as I liked the pod race in the film, I didn’t really know what to do with that pod racer model. You can’t reenact the race with one racer, do you? So all the parts quickly joined the other spare ones in that large Lego crate. Until today most of them were not really useful, but I never stopped enjoying the Boonta Eve classic – moreover Episode 1 Racer was and is one of my favorite video games. And finally, today, the iconic parts served a purpose – my home built Anakin’s podracer! I hope you like it. Here are some more angles on the pod racer:

Splendid entry! AG-77 in action It got the orange clay, the mineral acid pit, the mining structures and the Pykes - it's Kessel! Very sound composition. I like the edges of your build. It makes it a nice display! We'll have to keep an eye on the mercs Good to have you here!

Wow, what a cool command center with great lighting! And who is "the guy"?! Is it...? Could it be...? No!... Thanks for the scoring, chapeau to the dark side but next time we'll get you MandoLando you can post entries anytime following your own story and pace. Just keep in mind that only your factions sectors, their surroundings or grids with a hyperspace lane running through a controlled one are eligible for points (I sound like a senior now ) Another edit: I just saw you posted the one with the Wookieed already

Thank you! Well I purposely left open what exactly Art Bolt was paying for, in that shady dark alley establishment. It's up to your fantasy and to the rating of this forum Don't even remember which original set the "legs" are from. Some old Mars mission Lego maybe? Thanks for following the story I'll try to not let you wait all too long for the next part.

Amazing figures you have there! Inquisitor Ahsoka is my favorite and Ligth Vader is great too.

Well done indeed! I especially like the differently colored transparent wall parts. It gives the build a very Coruscant-y mood! I like the idea of the markets as well. Such a nice scenery. The green speeder is another highlight, though from design relatives point of view it looks more like an earth bound land speeder. Did it lose traction and is it about to fall of the roof, or is it supposed to be a flying one?

Late evening, somewhere near the old Coronet spaceport on Corellia… »He in there? « »He was easy to track down... Listen, in general I trust your instincts, Len’ya, but in this case… he doesn’t look very legendary to me. « »Art Bolt is one of the most prolific agents the Alliance had. He worked undercover for years. He for instance once provided the alliance a full squadron of X-Wings while pretending he was an imperial Colonel! We’ll need him. Would you go and get him? « Moments later… »Hey! Get your hands of me! I paid for that! « »Arthemias Bolt… good to meet you again. « » Le – Len’ya?! But…You are dead! « » Ah, the best compliment for a spy, ain’t it? But you are right. I was dead. … Bolt, the New Republic needs you. « » Nah thanks, I’m retired. « » You are drunk. And for people like us there is no retirement. Come with me. I have a job for you. « » What kind of job is it anyway? « » Retrieving Imperial Plunder. « »I pass. That’s not worth the effort, isn't it? Burning intelligence resources for some lost art? « » How about unmasking Ezhugh Vonreg then? « Arthemias Bolt is suddenly wide awake... » Vonreg? Second thought, I’m in. « » Hold on. Why the change of heart, old fossil? « » The old fossil has his reasons. I mean, you know Vonreg, right? He was an Imperial supporter until the very end. And when tides turned and the Empire shattered, he lamented that the emperor mind-controlled him and threatened his family. And how about them alliance politicians? They embraced his return because he offered extensive financial support for the new Republic. But I don’t buy it. For me, there are two types of former Imperials: The ones who defected after Alderaan and the ones who defected after Endor. The latter are not to be trusted. « » ... Quite the talker, huh? « » Len’ya, where did you get your 'friendly' Falleen bodyguard? Another asset of yours? « »Xher is a talented field agent. She works for my network since years. Eventually, she was an assassin for the Black Sun before I recruited her. « »Oh snap. I forgot. There is another type of people I distrust… « »And we don’t need to carry dead weight on our mission… « »Enough of that. I would trust Xher with my life. And we need Bolt to support against Vonreg. So let’s get to the ship. We have still some recruiting and gathering intel to do... « to next chapter >> *****

Thank you, guys, I really appreciate it Hope I can keep up to the expectations as the story evolves Stay tuned

The throne room of Mount Tantiss, Imperial treasure world Wayland. » My emperor, Baron Ezhugh Vonreg, as you ordered! « » Good. Your service is no longer required, Commander. Leave us alone. « » Your Highness. It’s an honor for me and my family to be at your service. « » Yes, your family indeed serves the Empire well, baron. « » Forgive my boldness, but why am I here? And where is here? « » You will learn your fate very soon, my friend. And now rise and come with me. « The emperor leads baron Vonreg around his exhibition of rare and precious artifacts and relics from each and every corner of his Empire… » Is that… the Ring of Xerbia? « » Yes… a fine relic that has been recently brought into my custody. And there is more to come. « Finally, they remain at the large holo table in the center of the throne room. » There is a myriad of worlds that crave for our lead, baron. They are lost and need order. « » No doubt, your highness, but where can I help? « » You are a collector of art yourself, baron.

There it is, the Throne Room on Wayland, I was teasing in the May the 4th contest MOC. I hope you like it. There is more to come soon!

Hello and first of all thank you very much to all of you for the positive feedback! Very much appreciated! I'm very happy you like the Vornskrs! It took some time to figure out how to build a convincing hound in minifig scale. I had them and the related figs already ready for some time and I'm glad I finally was "bold" enough to post them I will use the throne room then elsewhere, in Mysteries. Thanks, it was actually my favorite figure to tinker with. I sacrificed a more Gandalf- od Dumbledore-esque wizard look for this bare-chested one, as an homage to the C'Baoth on the cover page of the "Heir of the Empire" book Haha, good catch, if I remember correctly is indeed one of Hermiones faces . I'm glad you like the interpretation of Mara. I didn't remember that There are so many different images of Karrde with long hair and short beard, it was totally intuitive to build him like I did. Eventually, I think the more common long-hair depiction is fitting to the character.

Great story, cool build. First I boggled, cause the text was long, but who am I to judge . It's is very well written and entertaining. It complements the depicted story perfectly. I wonder if it is a greater story arc of some kind? Fan fiction or RPG? Or just a cool snip for that scene? Was Flank attacked because of incoming Order 66, or was that because of the secret meeting?

Hello MandoLando, A nice little scene! However, the resolution is quite low. I guess you tried to attach a pic directly to the post? I made the same lesson when I started here recently. It won't work, there is so little space for uploads. Don't bother with trying. Maybe you have a flickr account and can reference the pics in high resolution there? It's how I do it. And if not, one is easily set up. Just don't use your real name if you don't want to. It will be displayed for everyone (another lesson) I like the front of your speeder bike very much, by the way

Hello again, this will be a double strike today, with my second entry for the 'Duel of the Fates' contest ( I hope I manage to address the other categories too). I could not decide which to post, so I hope that - changing a little bit Count Dookus words - "Twice the pride, doubles the chances". This one is more straight forward than "The Jedi Night" entry, as the scene and the characters are known. I have build a "Throne room on Wayland" scene recently, but yet not posted it anywhere. It has much more parts than 100, but I realized I could reduce it significantly and just take the minifigs for this contest and display. So here is a scene from the legend(ary) book "The Last Command" by Timothy Zahn, better known as the 3rd book of the Thrawn trilogy. The conflict is arranged around the holo table of the throne room. The emperor used the table to command his forces around the galaxy. He could zoom into any system and decide which planet to take next. Story brief: Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade enter the throne room of the late emperor on the secret world Wayland. They are awaited by the Dark Jedi Master and emperor's warden of treasures Joruus C'Baoth. As neither Luke nor Mara want to join him, he calls his secret weapon, Luuke Skywalker - a clone made out of Luke's lost hand in Cloud City. He even carries his father's lightsaber! While Luke has to fight "himself", C'Baoth wants to turn Mara to the Dark Side. She is not very responsive, so he decides pain would be the best teacher. His force lightning is irresistible! In the mean time, Han Solo leads Leia Organa-Solo and the smuggler Talon Karrde, together with his force-sensitive Vornskr-hounds 'Sturm and Drang'* to the throne room. Leia wants to help her brother. As they arrive, the duel of fates is raging... I hope you like the moc and the minifigs! *) I realized Talon has shot the tails of the beasts, but I didn't want to change it. They look better with a tail ;-)

********************* The Jedi Night Some years before the Naboo trade embargo. Jedi-Masters Olera Sol and Boe Maven followed a distress call to the remote world Medjaani in the Outer-Rim territories. The planet was a cold and harsh world, completely covered with frozen oceans and thick layers of snow. The Jedi felt a chill upon their arrival that went beyond the physical perception of temperature. The planet was dark and menacing. The Dark Side of the force was strong here. The Jedi found nothing but one habitable volcanic island, where some forgotten colonists lived. They were Twi'lek and descendants of slaves that crash-landed on the planet generations ago. Hard-bitten folk that survived in the deadly environment warmed by thermal water and fed by feathered fish from the ocean. There was the cold and there were the flying beasts that hunted preferably after nightfall. And the nights on Medjaani, never seemed to end. One Medjaani day took 12 standard days. And that meant 6 full days of cold and darkness. The Twi'lek called it the 'long night' and the Jedi arrived right before dusk. The cold and the beast were not the only problem of the Medjaani-Twi'lek. At night, a plague crept from the mountains into the villages. Black tendrils that sprawled from each and every crack in the ground. Black fleshy tentacles, craving for the living. Irresistible and menacing. Whom they touched, got paralyzed and finally absorbed by the plague. The group of Jedi promised to find the origin of the plague, bring back balance and save the colonists. Soon they not only found out, that they were dealing with a force-sensitive macro-organism, spanning the whole island, but also that this entity was full of agony and hate. It was the source of the darkness in the force around them. A creature turned to the dark side. Out of control and ulcerating across the island. And with each life form it absorbed, it became more self-aware, intelligent and evil. The long night tested the Jedi. They had to resist the entity and they had to find a way to stop the spread. The Jedi even were able to find the reason for the being's agony and anger, but it was too late. It didn't want to be healed any more. It wanted to devour. Devour all life on Medjaani. Though they fought bravely, the Jedi could not stop the black creepy menace physically. It was until the Jedi realized, they had to let go. And as their bodies were covered with black tendrils and their consciousness fused into the entity's mind, they stroke back. Light triumphed over darkness and the Jedi finally prevailed in this contest of wills. The entity ceased, the Jedi survived. And after the dark, there came a new dawn on Medjaani and from this time on, the colonist would remember this long night as the 'Jedi Night'... ********************* This is the brief synopsis of an campaign, I have created and been game mastering recently. The first time, all of the players had the chance to play as a Jedi and it turned out perfect! For the Duel of the Fates contest, I depict a scene, where the Jedi are circled by the dark tendrils, that pierce out of the snow. I hope you like the build and the characters! If you enjoyed reading so far, here come last, but not least, the character profiles: Upper left: Name: Boe Maven Species: Human Rank: Jedi Master Characteristics and background: Boe is principal of the Jedi agricultural corps and literally rooted to the soil. For a Jedi, he has a shaggy appearance and never wears shoes. Some other masters like Dooku turn up their noses at him, but Boe does not mind. He is in peace with himself and the force. He loves exotic plants and nature and does not participate in politics. He prides himself for not having used his lightsaber in conflict for over 20 years and always carrying some tea leafs in his bag -"There is always time for tea", he uses to say. When his friend Olera Sol calls him to assist in a mysterious distress call, he follows her without hesitation. His Padawan is Phex Gheero. Upper middle: Name: Brael Altrus Species: Human Rank: Padawan Characteristics and background: Brael is the Padawan of Master Olera Sol. Like his master, he wants to become a guardian of peace and leans heavily on his sword fighting skills. He helps his friend Phex to become better in lightsaber dueling, as her master Boe does not give a lot for aggressive negotiations. Upper right: Name: Stybla’ro’omwis Species: Chiss Rank: Padawan Characteristics and background: Stybla is a Padawan that recently lost her master and at the beginning of the adventure dwells on a small Jedi exclave to overcome the loss. Her specialty is clairvoyance. She senses the danger looming on Medjaani and together with Jaku Takan they decide to go and help. There, they join forces with masters Olera and Boe and their padawans. Lower left: Name: Jaku Takan Species: Klatooinian Rank: Jedi Knight Characteristics and background: Jaku also resides at the exclave to overcome sorrow. It was also his former master that ceased recently. He has a strong bond to Stybs, the young Padawan of his late master. Jaku is a knight and one of the best sword fighters of the temple. With his skills he can match the best of the best, like masters Windu and Dooku. He is a little bit of a lone wolf though and has yet to accept a Padawan for training. Lower middle: Name: Olera Sol Species: Human Rank: Jedi Master Characteristics and background: Olera is a guardian and recenty elected member of the high council. She engages in the toughest missions for peace in the Republic. She is eminently respectable and known to all Jedi, from youngling to Master. Although she is dealing with the most important council affairs, she never forgets her true self. She is friend with the eccentric Jedi Master Boe, whom she knows from youngling days. Her Padawan is Brael Altrus. She has long gray hair and always wears it open as a sign of rebellion against an all too strict Jedi code. Lower right: Name: Phex Gheero Species: Faleen Rank: Padawan Characteristics and background: Phex is the Padwan of master Boe and very talented. Her trials for knighthood are imminent. Yet she is insecure, because Boe does not give a lot to train her physical skills. She is friend with Brael and secretly practices with him. Phex is loyal to her master and loves him, despite his eccentricity. Unlike Boe who enjoys plants, she is more into beasts and has a talent to tame them. PS: I almost used the 100 pieces allowed, it's 95-98. PPS: Sorry for the very long post.

The organics seem to have a really tough time on Daimla. Where's that ion grenade, when you need it most? A very tense scene indeed I really like the ancient, ruined arc and the seemingly more modern road in contrast. The rusty soil completes a very harmonious build.
