Looks like it... or just some stupid annoying spammer who wants all of us LEGO fans to stop having fun...

How can Dragonator write so much, that's what I really want to know...hmmmm I think I've figured it out! A human could not possibly have that long of an attention span, so he must have a dragon do all the writing for him while he was outside daydreaming about creative ways to kill people, or at least something of the sort. I know I wouldn't have the attention span to write that much, and would have to take frequent breaks, as I had to do reading all of Dragonator's posts. In a confused conclusion, Dragonator might have bribed with a lot of frozen meat and beef jerky (modern marvels ) a dragon or multiple ones to write his responses for him.

Sorry about that, here they are, resized, and the resized Brickshelf folder. New Brickshelf Folder The Crown Jewel Her Captain, Cervid Vulpes (Different person than original post) I present, the Marine Captain, Erina Ceo

Will I need to repost them?

Without further ado, I present the Crown Jewel, the pride of the Crown Kingdom Navy. (it's now several posts down) Sadly, due to the Shipbuilder's inability to keep track of his materials, the Jewel only carries a topsail and a single mast, but there are rumors of materials possibly coming from a magical place called Bricklink and rumors of the ship being expanded. Also, I apologize for the poor quality of the pictures, it's monsoon season here, and I geniously decided to photograph as a storm system was passing through, so the lighting differs between photos. EDIT: The Larger Pictures were deleted.

Actually, I couldn't get them onto my computer, but it worked today, and I'm trying to get some of the photos into a brickshelf folder...

Oh, he will, I'm sure of it

Regardless, I think that his "Dragon Senses" or something would wake him up and force him to get on Eurobricks...

Here I am, a week later... 1. I've expanded the besieging army by four skeletons which I found in a small box that went missing last summer. 2. I've photographed most of the castle, the Crown Jewel, and even a battle between the "Jewel" and the skeleton ship. 3. I've made something of a primitive speargun, known as the "Dwarven Spear Cannon," which is being put to use to defend my castle. 4. I can't upload any of the pictures...

Excellent story! I really hope you use this model of dragons for future MOCs and/or vignettes or whatever else you want to use it for. I might actually try to use this to explain the dragon attacking my castle... I'm really surprised Dragonator hasn't posted on this yet... very unlike him

wow...

I've taken pictures of my ship, which I've christened the Crown Jewel. Sadly, I am not having much luck uploading them to my computer, and I recently lost one of the sails, so it only has a topsail on its one mast. Another note, I got the Skeleton Ship Attack on sale at 50 USD

Thanks, I am actually having fun with them, and I have three MOCs in the process right now, one of which I was working on before typing this.

I will, but I first have to find the camera...

Yesterday, I went to the LEGO Store in Chandler, AZ, and bought 7094 King's Castle Siege and 7029 Skeleton Ship Attack, and spent most of the afternoon yesterday assembling them, but stopped at midnight and finished building the Skeleton Ship this morning. I think those are the first "large" sets I've ever gotten, that is if the Troll Battle Wheel is counted as medium. To supplement my castle, I bought some stuff from the Pick-A-Brick wall, including some pieces to connect two 48 x 48 stud baseplates I have together. Also, this morning, I've retooled a pirate ship I built a few months ago to be a ship to combat the skeletons with for the knights and a few very seasick dwarves. To sum it all up, I've had a very busy past 24 hours.

Do you by any chance have an undisplayed Signature Fig.? If so, will you please display it here... for...er...uh...identification of repliers? Certainly not to make a dragon-followed robbo vignette...or showing who is public enemy #1

I was actually thinking he would have responded as I put the topic up! On a more serious note, if we could get some people to do maybe some vignettes of captured dragons being freed, then we could gather some actual brick-based support for our cause. It would be interesting for some flags as well, which I might be able to do, as I might have some old fabric and model paint. Well, keep on liberating!

I pledge my loyalty to the Dwarven Lords, who now seek techonology to destroy those cruel enough to harm the innocent. As well, I am a proponent of dragon rights, and even though the dwarves and dragons have had hard relationships, that is no reason for them to be ununited against a common foe. Also, I have created a topic devoted to the liberation of dragons and the advancement of them as a faction: Association for the Advancement of Dragons' Rights P.S.- It's supposed to be Dragons' Rights on the topic title, but I messed up the grammar

Greetings, I, Francis Marion, am aligned with the dwarves of LEGO Castle. Sadly, the dwarves, as told in many different mythologies, and hopefully not in LEGO, have been conflicting with dragons for a long time. I wish to free many dragons from their forced evil bonds to the Dark Wizard, and eliminate the stereotype of all dragons being evil.

Does Little Armory still exist, Mr. Tiber?

I believe you're referring to the Hero sword, am I right? Sorry, I should have been more specific in this. I meant a basket-hilted claymore as the typical highland claymore was relatively obselete by the time of pirates. They are relatively similar, but a cutlass is shorter, broader, and heavier than a saber, which is fairly long and relatively lighter, as well as being useful for thrusting attacks

I, for some odd reason, stay up very late researching weapons from the piratical time period. Some of the things I've found LEGO should have for their Pirates line are weapons such as the sabre (saber), the rapier, claymores (possibly), etc. Has anyone made any of the aforementioned weapons at all? If so, do you have pictures?

I was wondering if anyone would like a LEGO Pirate RPG (Role Playing Game) for this forum. I have noticed that there is a Castle one. I'd be willing to make the map, and we could follow generally the same way to play.

Not necessarily, but obscure parts from the pirate line and other parts that could be used (such as tools) in piratically themed LEGO.

I would like to know what random accessories anyone else uses for their pirates. This includes special weapons, tools, etc. I am especially interested in smaller ones that would fit in an impulse set...
