  1. Welcome to our most beloved Guild, sir Pinocchiolus !
  2. wow, really awesome!! I like how you make the smoothly combination of the 2 independent MOC's!!
  3. Normally there is no limit on the size if I haven't read it wrong. But it won't help you more than just a normal heavy-equipped Dwarve as it will be tossed or a random number looted between 1 and 2 (which is the most fair solution in my opinion) Well, maybe for making it more interesting, you can put number 3 in it too, which would mean that after the first round there is no winner, so you will have to loot again (and maybe even some more numbers and every number has a specific event. It would be far easier I think to make stories for every fight)
  4. No maximum surface, the latest Drow city is for example 3 meters long :D My city of Mpya Stedor is designed to be 150x150 But if you are planning to make an embassy for example, the maximum is 48x48. Of course larger is not forbidden, but it won't count in the challenge :) But like I said, for city projects, there is no maximum
  5. haha I like how the grass turns into ashes
  6. Cold in Kaliphlin? Here in Mpya Stedor, it's almost always hot
  7. As Mpya Stedor palace is about to be finished very soon (not the inside as I miscounted the number of bricks I need for my stairs), Lord Damaximus will celebrate the event with a gladiator game in front of the palace. The winner of this game will be sent to the great Gladiator Game of 14 February! Lord Damaximus himself was considering to participate himself, but his advisor talked that idea out of his mind as it would be too dangerous for Mpya Stedor if something happens to him => Great initiative!!!
  8. Are Kaliphlin Embassadors who have an embassy in Nocturnus welcome as well?
  9. I know someone in Historica knows a good program for it, but I never used it myself. What you can do is copy paste the original picture into word and then make it smaller by using the corner so the scale won't be changed. Then copy paste the result in paint, remove the white around the picture and save it as jpeg
  10. I really like it! It gives me a Disneyland Pirate feeling somehow
  11. Don't show this to the Drow, as they can find it very interesting that all your helms are suddenly gone :p haha even the cannon is helm-made ! Great job! It's amazing how you made those helms stick together!
  12. It still makes no sense for me why TLC made a compass on a square 1x1 tile, when they could do it like that :p Anyway, I expect to find the ring in every set just as that stupid compass wich I got now 10 times or so (as in every set, you got 2 of them)
  13. Thx It would be nice if I Scream Clone puts it in the first post
  14. - Davy Jones hat - Jack Sparrow hat (x2) - Blackbeard Sword - Hair of Elisabeth Swann - Davy Jones Beard - Blackbeard's beard - Davy Jones hand - Pirate Flag - Maccus Head - Penelope's hat (forgot name of her character) - hair of Yoshamee Gibbs - hair of Will - hair of Norrington => maybe it will be used for Aragorn as it looks pretty the same - Waterfall - Rock at waterfall (looks like a dish) - bottles (I'm not sure if Potc was first or not) - hat of Hadras - Mermaid bottoms (if I am not wrong, it was straight before) - Sword holder Well not maybe all of them, but just to make a point TLC isn't affraid of making new moldes. Beside, look at the collectible minifigs, almost every minifig comes with a new item TLC never made before... hmm, about the ring, that's true :p
  15. ring will be like the compass of Jack Sparrow: a 1x1 tile. For the swords, they'll make new molds. Just look to POTC: they had to make at least 25 new molds, only for figures and weapons...
  16. w... o... w... :o no, seriously... WOW!!
  17. nice gate ^^ As my beloved Guild-leader says, Historica will be alive even after the officially end. I just think they said the period of a year for making things like the watchtower, the embassies, ... as, considering every project has a period of 2 months, I can't imagine how they can find more than 5 new tasks for us But just like Si-Mocs says, I'll build my medieval mocs in Kaliphlin style even when Historica is finished officialy
  18. If I am not wrong, Historica will last one year, so probably the end of November/December
  19. I would stick with the grey, but looks like I am the only one
  20. I love how you make a comic out of the pictures! But I never saw that mage here in Kaliphlin, very strange!
  21. Wow! third time I watched the pictures this week, and still it's amazing! Everywhere you could possible imagine some details, you did it! Also the base is something most of us only can dream of... About the water: I don't really agree about being bland. It gives a cold glance at the water.
  22. I am looking forward till the first buildings of Samrd'dha! I especially hope you'll make the colosseum as I think nobody else ever tried that
  23. edited the timeline with the history of Avalonia found at their first post ;)
  24. As a Mitgardian Bard passed by in my city of Mpya Stedor for telling the tales of Mitgardia, my history-writer-monk writed it down next to our Kaliphlin history. The tales are not detailed yet, but the Historica-history can been seen like this: (as nobody exactly used data, he used the data he thinks would be right. Of course those will be slightly different of data of some other scientists) More than 6000 years ago: - The powerful race of the Druids lived in the regions of nowadays Avalonia. They are the first signs of life in this continent. Only remainings of their temples and shrines can be found with drawings of their rituals. 4000 years ago: - The last of the Druids died. The Spell Of Peace And Protection is cast and buried in a mysterious shrine, still not found. 3500 years ago: - Being banned from the surfaces of other continents, the Drow starts construction of it's first mayor city inside the Rakath Mountains. Living under the surface for the next 1200 years. - All kinds of mysterious creatures are living on the surface of the continent. 3400 years ago: - Elves arriving at the continent in their crusade against the Drow, starting a tribe in the forrests. 3000 years ago: - Some traders from another continent arrives at the Great Southern Grasslands (nowadays Kaliphlin). They are nomads so they come and go. Only a few of them stays here to start a new nomad life. 2700 years ago: - Elves finally found a Drow city. Start of many Elves-Drows wars in our continent. 2500 years ago: - A few nomads decides to construct a city somewhere in the Great Southern Grasslands. They call it Kaligem and call themselves Kaliphlins. 2300 years ago: - After 400 years of war, the resources of the Drow starts to being empty. The current Drow-lord starts with conquering nowadays Nocturnus. At this moment a green area with many vegetation. 2000 years ago: - The first known civilization in Mitgardia with men fighting the dragons, fighting hopelessly out powered by the dragon, but managing to push most dragons out of our realm. - The city of Kaligem is getting more and more fame across the globe as wealth rained for the residents of the city and the Kaliphlins decided to make a second wall, defended by golden towers. - Nocturnus is getting darker and darker as the Drow together with the Dragons are adapting the region to their needs. - Drow starts with conquering rest of Historica 1900 years ago: - Drows conquered the last big Elves city. The surviving Elves lived as outlaws in the forrests, hiding for Drow-patrols. 1800 years ago: - the Legendary Warrior who defeated the drow as the attempted to take Mitgardia as their own home, but he shall defeat them using the power of the ancients, a power none today still possess, the Language of Supernal Beings, like the Dragons. He was given the title of Jarl, and is leader of the Northern Lands of Mitgardia. - Failed siege of Kaligem by the Drows. The Kaliphlins constructs the major temple for Bonash, their deity to thank him for their victory. - The Drow are banned to their cities under the Rakath Mountains again. Drow Raids in every part of Historica starts. 1500 years ago: - the great decline of Mitgardia, a period of time when civilization became scarce as the Jarl at the time was corrupt and cared not for his people. - Santani Bela'Sti Fi'Ru of the House of Santani is the new Lord of Kaliphlin. He starts spreading the wealth of Kaligem throughout the continent and starts conquering Historica. 1400 years ago: - Kaliphlin conquered almost all of nowadays Historica. Cedrica is founded to make a more central capital. 1350 years ago: - Kaliphlin starts the siege of the last holdout not yet conquered, the Darkland Bastion Everlast in the East, leader of the army is Santani b'Rack Ji'Fall. His son Santani Ar'Mani Ji'Teel decided to transport the wealth of Kaligem to Cedrica. 1345 years ago: - Everlast falled as the enemy disappeared. Kaliphlin controls now all of Historica. - the God Bonash and the God Ashroth starts the siege of Kaligem as revenge for all the wealth deported to Cedrica. The residents started offering all their wealth at once and even people to please Bonash again. - Bonash and Ashroths starts fighting eachother. Ashroth has been killed and Bonash heavily injured and one of their magic waves casted a hugh standstorm allover Kaligem, making Kaligem disappear from the map. The Great Southern Grasslands are transformed into a hot desert. 1300 years ago: - Due the fall of Kaligem, Kaliphlin was not able anymore to control Historica, new factions arrised and they started fighting eachother. Thousand years of war started. 200 years ago: - the rise of the New Mitgardian Dynasty, a period of time where a very popular and kind family took the Jarl's throne, and still rules today. 120 years ago: - The Avalonia guild conquered the Western region of the continent. The tribe of Elves pledged their alliance to the house of Rex. 102 years ago: - The western region of the continent was finally reunited under one flag: the flag of Avalonia. 100 years ago: -Origins of Historica The bard’s song tells a tale of a world long forgotten, Race against race, clan against clan, shields clashed with swords; long ago when Men of the Lion fought Men of the Falcon, and human armies succumbed to Orcs and undead. Each group clashed with its neighbor for power, unleashing upon the world a great scourge, and the arcane land was thrown into chaos. When it all seemed but lost, a council of wise men and sages was summoned. From all the lands they came to convene in the old world’s great city; the fortress of Cedrica. To settle the grievance and end a millennium of bloodshed, the sages declined all the treaties of old and joined all the clans into one mighty Kingdom; Historica. They founded the Four Great Regions- each one a realm in itself; - Mitgardia in the North, Nocturnus in the East, Kaliphlin in the South and Avalonia in the West, so that trade routes would spring up and clans would meet in the markets and not in the theatre of war. The wise men chose a family of great honor, to uphold the truce and to keep the four guilds from dispute, and descendants of that mighty kin to this day rule the Central lands of Historica. So goes the legend. For ten decades the races of old have migrated and spread through the world, following the trade routes, establishing cultures and prospering towns. Today - it is a world of wonder and natural beauty; a realm where a man and a woman may find peace. But peace is short lived… Treacherous assassins have tried to murder the King! The capital is in shock and there will be repercussions; the Four Regions assemble their forces as the balance of power shifts, and blame is passed around. For the first time in a century, the guilds of Historica build up old defenses and prepare for the inevitable confrontation; everything hangs in the balance, and Historica is on the verge of chaos once more… Guildsmen; this is the world you inhabit, this is the place where you will make your fortune, build a mighty empire and battle for the glory and honor of the banner… ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- note: stories: - I Scream Clone (Historica) - Gondabuggan (Mitgardia) - SkaForHire (Kaliphlin) - Damaximus (Nocturnus) - Derfel_Cadarn (Avalonia) It's up to Avalonia and Nocturnus to put their history too somewhere!
  25. Nice structure! only the tan colour is maybe a bad choice for a forge in Mitgardia. Is it also possible to upload pictures of the sides and the back (if you want)?
