Ratshot

It has to be fully closed. You should post it in the MOC forum, each entry will have its own topic. Were trying to run this like Pillage the Village. Your church looks good though Its yours NOTE TO EVERYONE! 1. I'm adding a Question & Answer thing to the main post, so be sure to read it, it contains important info! 2. The main rules have been updates, so read them thoroughly! The Rat who got shot

Its yours

No standard parts are being used in this build, feel free yo use what you like

Non clone brands but feel free to use Brickarms, custom figs ect. I can see your point regarding the factions, but remember that some members lack certain types of minifigures , so it doesn't really matter what type are used. (Except for buildings like the Islanders Village, Pirates Safe House ect.)

Sorry, but it has to be as the map says. Keep registering Rat.

Done, it was rather obvious which ones you guys would pick

Just a decoration

I know, hes been taunting me all day long

First off, I would like to thank Zorro for giving us the thumbs up to organize this great project, thanks buddy I also would like to thank Commodore Hornbricker. He did a wonderful job designing the map and he also helped with the building list. Put your hands together for Egor folks! The following people deserve some recognition.... Captain Blackmoor: He designed the broken map, leaked the pics onto Brickshelf and helped fill in some of the details. Erdbeereis: I have terrible grammar so I asked Erdy if would help me with that issue, he to gave helpful comments. Captain Zuloo: Lots of helpful comments. SlyOwl (Whatever his name is): He made the cool picture of the builder guy. Admiral Woodhouse: He went out of his way to post the pics of the broken map. Thanks to all the Shipyardigans for putting a link in there signatures.

Nice flags Voodo Hands, I thought that this Flag from the Dark Knights theme would be good on English ships. Here it is.... Is the image too big?

That's not what I was thinking

No I didn't, I based it loosely off the Echo base radar room/command center.

What do you guys think I should do today?

I bought Armada Sentry, here's a link.

I never noticed that one

Look what I won, here's a link. I think I got it for a really good price too.

Stay alert guys

Thanks for the nice complement, this is my very first SW's MOC so I'm rather pleased with the result that I got out of it. Your control room looks good

I love that show I got season 3 for Christmas.

Other than Lego.... 1. Coins, I have a Greek coin dating back to 1887. 2. Army memorabilia. I haven't bought anything recently but I still intend to buy stuff. 3. Rifles and shotguns. 4. Little mini coffee mugs with all the different NHL logos on them. 5. Rat-shot. 6. My clutter collection grows and grows even though I don't try to collect it.

Seance when did my name change to 'Ratshop"?

Here's my Radar Room, sorry for the delay. I picked the Radar Room because my Grandfather was a radar operator on a ship during WWII. Overview The Radar Rooms commander. Some clones hard at work. A clone coming through the door. The side. The back. Cheers Rat.

ere it is, the Radar Room. I had a lot of fun building it.

This is one powerful looking ship! I hope it beats the crap out of those annoying Redcoats! Nice work Swash Buckler
