Captain Braunsfeld

Something strange is going on... So far: Explosion on Gunpowder Island A Message Is Sent A Message Is Recieved At The Headquarters Encounter in the Jungle Don't Shoot Examination Subjects Meanwhile... ... The General entered the laboratory. The scientists appeared to be busy. "Any progress so far?" "Well", the Marquis replied, "Several facts are now clear: Most of the bananarite that caused the explosion was consumed in the explosion. This limits the effects we see to Gunpowder Island. The remaining aerosolic bananarite has had an enormous mutating effect on the banana plants on the island, creating walking banana mutants." General: "How do we deal with these banana mutants?" Marquis: "Difficult to say. They are immune to ordinary weapons. You see, the natural banana is a peaceful being. The idea of 'weapons' is not within bananas. Still they contain a high portion of unaltered bananarite in their bodies." General: "How can we harvest this bananarite?" Marquis: "Well, we have to defeat the walking mutants first. Make them resident again. Then we can apply standard filtering techniques." General: "Then let's defeat them! Let's get them! Let's get them! Em, how do we do this?" Marquis: "We currently do not know. My assistant has been working on several formulas and potions, but so far ..." General: "We need a result by tomorrow. Go on." The General leaves the laboratory and the scientists continue their studies and experiments. (But still, in a different place, indications for a new hope arose...)

Do I need to say something? Is everyone enjoying themselves

Something strange is going on... So far: Explosion on Gunpowder Island A Message Is Sent A Message Is Recieved At The Headquarters Encounter in the Jungle Don't Shoot Examination Subjects ... Back on Gunpowder Island the terror goes on... ... and another ... ... poor human ... ... gets killed in the jungle by Banana Mutants! Nobody was aware that a seemingly unrelated discovery would give the humans "A New Hope".

I like this very much. In fact, I want to build something similar!

De Neushoorn finished last .....

Fine vessel, fine vessel ....

But the bright blue is ok? Ok, you probably want me to go for a black& white MOC Yes, indeed Thanks - a larger version is likely to have different colours (Eslandolean green?)...

Strange things continue on this island Those GlooGloos - just lovely And the banana mutant! Good job, Professor!

A fie composition, nicely contrasting the horror of the scene. Palm tree and banana mutants are excellent - and I also noticed that your soldiers have got a weapon upgrade

Thanks, this is actually a "pilot build" and I would like to do some sort of fortress

New building style? Fascinating and clever! And great rigging too!

It is actually not that colourful in real life ... I tried a new building approach ... And it might have failed Dark red would have been better, but I don't have the slopes in dark red.

Glad to see that you liked it! Thanks - and good point. However, from the pictures it is hard to tell how those mutated bananas actually move

... this is my first horror-storyline! Thanks. And forgive me, I have no idea about plants... Question is, whether shooting will help... Bedankt!

Entry for CAT A:

Somewhere on Prio Island - a forgotten former forepost has become a secret meeting point ... Captain Cookie: So, Minheer Vandermeulen, I understand you want to win the Pilot Association's race? Jacobus Vandermeulen: That is correct, my dear Captain. Cookie: And I have helped to fund your new ship, the Neushoorn. Jacobus: Yes, that was very kind. Jacobus: The question remains: What do you want from me in return? Cookie: Someday, and that day may never come, I will call upon you to do a service for me. But until that day, accept the ship as a gift to win the race. How are the others doing? Jacobus (putting down the spyglass): Some are amazingly fast, like this Callaghan guy. But I have a good chance to win! Cookie: Good luck, mate. [@Professor Thaum: Thanks for the inspiration!]

Another millstone for BoBS!

Hey, Sarge, look there! What, Private? There was something in the bushes. Something yellow, it moved, Sir! And, indeed, two strange twin-like creatures emerged from the jungle and closed in on the soldiers. They looked ... strange, sort of banana-ish. The sergeant came closer, shouting: Who, or what are you - answer me! In a movement too quick for the eye to follow, and without a single sound, the yellowish strange creatures jumped on the sergeant and killed him! His men fled in panic! The yellowish creatures remained... as if nothing had happened And with them a faint smell of bananas ...

Fine, fine and fun! Strangely I heard "Giiib Kookooo eineeeen Keeeeeks".... From a scientific point of view you are likely to get a visit from Alberto da Pontelli, he should very interested in all these fantastic inventions. And the windvane is great too (I also learned a new word here)

Quite good! Oh, sorry, I am German. I need to say something like "not bad" ...

Thank you! As to the base: I try to bring in variations and new ideas when I can.

Medium Plantation (Challenge-result): Tropical Fruit https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/171343-era-ii-challenge-ii-medium-plantation-on-fatu-hiva-micro-build/

Now I have my micro build ready for the "free medium plantation" I won in Challenge II. If I remember the rules the type of plantation is determined by chance. Should that not be the case, I would choose a banana plantation. Cheers!
