Yankees fan? What do you have against successful and popular things. Just because they are better than what you got, doesn't make them bad. -
I second that.

See, you know who's the best guild! -
Here's the revised version: 1. Theme You don't have to be strong to be brave. 2. Story Arc There once was a poor farmer boy who dreamed of being a knight. He always wanted to be a knight in dashing armor like the ones in his grandfather’s stories. He wished he could practice his swordsmanship, but he had to work on the farm all day because his father was very sick. Thus, one day while Patrick was working in the fields near the main road to town, a mighty chariot was coming along. Patrick was very intrigued by this chariot that was very elegant. Then right before his eyes, a bear came running at the chariot and killed the single horse. Patrick ran right up to the scene, but he should have thought twice. Once he was close to the bear he didn't know what to do. The bear came running at him when a sword cut the bear in half. The owner of the sword, to Patrick’s amazement was King Phillip. King Phillip was a man of great stature. He admired Patrick for being brave enough to run to the scene. Patrick gave King Phillip a horse and some food. King Phillip thanked Patrick for his kindness and invited him to go to the Royal Knights recruitment which was in a couple days. Patrick immediately accepted the offer and couldn't wait to the day to come. It was finally recruitment day for the imperial knights in the Kingdom. There was the General Socar who was picking out the knights and there was this tall, strong, and dashing knight. His name was Wellington. Socar considered Wellington as the best one there and that he would for sure make a great knight. Wellington had great sword skills and knew every move in the book, but it was just a matter of using them. Patrick was there too, but he was overwhelmed by all of the tall, strong knights. Everyone, especially Wellington made fun of him. They said that he was puny and pathetic and that he would never pass the test for becoming a knight. And Patrick believed them. He had a brave heart, but his swordsmanship didn’t match up to it. And although, they made fun of him, those knights weren’t his enemies, but instead supposed to be allies. It was time to test the knights. Socar was a fair, but sometimes cruel man who made it really hard for a knight to pass. On one occasion, Patrick was put against Wellington. Patrick wanted to win so badly, but he didn’t know how to use a sword. Wellington made fun of him and said to Patrick, “What is a little, poor, and weak farm boy like you doing out here?” But Patrick tried to ignore him. Getting no reply, Wellington kicked Patrick to the ground. Socar stopped Wellington, but realized Patrick wasn’t a good swordsman. In the Kingdom there have been recent attacks by thieves and it was becoming a problem. These thieves were horrible men who wanted everyone to be mad. Recruitment day was sunny and clear, until suddenly a band of thieves came out and attacked Socar, Wellington, the knights, and Patrick before Socar could decide who would become royal knights. Wellington ran away to the village where he found refuge in a cart full of hay. Socar was most surprised and felt that Patrick was going to be of no help. But he was wrong. Patrick learned to be a good horseman on farm and could relate well with horses. Thus, Patrick took the horses from the stable and told them to charge at the thieves. Patrick planned out a smart plan where the remaining knights and the horses would charge at once. With the sight of the horses running, the thieves ran away leaving Patrick, the knights, and Socar out in the field. Socar promoted Patrick as Head Knight of the Kingdom and made Wellington muck the stalls of horses. From that day on, a little farm boy became known as Patrick the Brave. 3. Character Transformations Socar learned that it doesn't take a strong man to be brave and noble. He was wrong with believing Patrick was going to be of no help with fighting the thieves. He also learned that the cocky one is most times the wrong choice. Wellington was very humbled in this story. He learned that just because he was popular and strong, doesn't mean the unpopular and small people are losers. He also noticed the rewards of being brave. Due to running away from a fight, Wellington received the job of mucking the stalls of the horses. Patrick received a great reward in this story. But he to learned something. He learned that just because others say something, doesn't mean it's true. He learned to also have self-confidence. 4. Journey All of our characters learned something today. Wellington went from being bold, cocky, and successful to weak, humble, and not-so successful Socar went from knowing everything to learning many things from someone he least expected. Patrick went from small, poor, and dis-respected to powerful, rich, and much respected.

Boobs are a No-go on LEGO CUUSOO
Brickington replied to Holly-Wood's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Just look around. Then you will understand what I am talking about. -
Really nice. I love the base and the simplicity of the moc. Also nicer to see another Active Avalonian building.
-
Why is protecting the Oil Road? Anyway, great collection!

The White House set was such a bother to build. The base would not stay on. -
Boobs are a No-go on LEGO CUUSOO
Brickington replied to Holly-Wood's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I am talking about the type of mom that would buy their kid a LEGO set. I would know because I have two sisters who are moms and I have discussed topics like this with them. -
Welcome to Eurobricks!

You will make a wonderful member of Eurobricks! Welcome!

Yeah, but look at his clothes, there is the Avalonian color of dark green.

Boobs are a No-go on LEGO CUUSOO
Brickington replied to Holly-Wood's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I agree with Mister. If you have breasts, why can't you have noses etc? I think this is a rather pathetic topic. No mom wants to go buy their young child a LEGO set with girls who have boobs. Frankly, as mentioned before, every thing would change, like armor and other gear. I don't see any reason TLG would do this. -
Great job. However, that Mitgardian looks Avalonian.

I really like how your minifigs were setup. Nice build!
