Sure would! Again, does anyone plan on buying this game?

There it is, hidden behind that magnificent steamship of yours! I was wondering the story behind that. Nice ship! I only called it post civil war because it looked like a ship that was built after the 1860's. Thanks for enlightening me.

Perhaps, if it is put on ebay, it can have a special place in the ebay sales thread?

For once in my life I'm DYING for leakage... Every day, I do a search. "lego pirates 2010" "lego 2010" "redcoats pirates lego 2010" "red coat ship lego 2010" So far, all I've gotten are the 2009 sets, people's mocs, and Lego Battles... so there isn't anything on google.

Bluecoats are generally $4 each, If they have a shako then they're $6-8 per soldier. Governors are $10 apiece. Pirates are less expensive, $3 for redbeard. There are many more pirates, so you can check the prices here.

Nice collection! However, I believe that it is supposed to be posted in the "buy, sell, and trade" forum. and, If I'm not mistaken, you need to be a frequent visitor with over 100 posts to use it. If I could buy some of it, I'd probably like that Eldorado Fortress baseplate, and maybe a handful of bluecoats, and some pirates. But this isn't the place for trading

And what would you do with a giant chest, anyway? (seriously, give me some ideas, i'm drawing a blank) The colored tiles, the pearl gold jumpers, the new brown slopes, all those gems! I'm not sure how well the game would go, considering everything is so close together and someone might easily see someone elses code.

You could probably make a powerful ship from this hull, You just needs some parts. It could be an almighty war barge with 3 guns broadside! Just make a central cabin housing the cannon and gun ports, put a roof on that, put up a couple of masts, and it shall be "HMS Puny" no more!

Oh! That changes everything! Then I'd add in sails with pink flowers on them

you don't have a pair of 6x16 plates for the roof?

Ok. Can you use the hull piece that you are currently using for a roof to extend the ship?

Yes, he also has a post-civil-war Monitor somewhere, I couldn't find it in that picture but I could be wrong.

Interesting... Chocolate chip or peanut butter? I would add 2 more hull sections, and then make those into a cabin, separate from the bow and stern pieces. Picture a banana with a box on top. then, put the cannons inside. The ship has potential but it kinda looks...empty. I guess it would be good in a sea battle, it would be very fast, and cannonballs would go right through it. Oh and Alexandertam, CGH doesn't like Reds Vs Blues to be on normal threads anymore. The Redcoats Vs Bluecoats thread is here.

Nice story and those are GREAT ships! Matching color schemes, too. Congrats!

It certainly would be! Though I would like to have seen more large ships, I like the port scenes. And the "Pirates in the Bermuda Triangle" is quite nice.

Nice scene! Your buildings are good, and I like your pirate ship. do you have more pictures of the ship by itself somewhere?

Your best building yet! Magnificent design, magnificent color, magnificent story, and magnificent attention to detail! I love it!

If you had a cathedral or church, you could extend it, add another keyboard, and add yellow 1x1 "cannonball" bricks behind it (like tubes).

Redcoats DID wear blue underneath the red coats in some regements, other times they wore white. Look: I think that we will see and hear about the 2010 pirate sets by August, and they'll start popping up in various TRU's amd Lego stores by October. We'll get our first reviews of the set in November, and they will be everywhere by december, if that is when they are to come.

I'll toast to that! Great job, everyone! This is truly a milestone! Here's to 70,000 more for the greatest Lego Pirate database on the web(IMO)!

I believe it is a combination of both that makes the pirate theme great. Without ports, where would merchant ships trade? Where would warships patrol? Where would pirate ships raid? Without ships, why would you need ports? It is a question of philosophy. But personally, I like ships. Billowed sail, tall, graceful, majestic, always moving, inspirational. No matter how hard you try, you can never get a building to be like a sailing ship. They tried with the Sydney Opera House, but they couldn't come close.

Wow... the Denise is better than anything I'll make in the next 5 years! It would be interesting to see one of your ships from before your "dark age", CGH. Interesting ship name, "the Tired" , but it looks good! Have you disassembled La Mort Royal? All look quite spectacular, and the Prins William Here are mine, as Paul refered to: My Evolution For such great builders as yourselves, who knows what the future may hold!

This is actually the first woman I have seen here who has any sort of position. nice creativity. No wonder men like her... so much for "missing family" :pir-skull:

BREAKING NEWS!!!!! The HMS Colossus shall go through a MAJOR upgrade. With a more realistic stern and SNOT sides, she'll be more affordable and more realistic. Wish me luck on the giant new project to 100% improve my ship -donations accepted-

Nice piano! I'm sure I have a place for the design SOMEWHERE in Port St. Brick.
