[GoC] Queen's Birthday Parade, Various Settlements
The Sarge replied to Ayrlego's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
I love these builds! I think Mooreton Bay is my favorite architecture, but they are all nice builds. The variation in troops is a nice touch too. -

Armorer's Workshop I Small Artisan -
Noting the natural fortifications of the island of Pharos, the general staff of La Royale determined it prudent to begin construction on a protected Naval Yard to support the push east. One of the first buildings to go up was this sturdy workshop for the armorer, where he maintains and repairs the small arms of the fleet and the army units attached to it. Along the left wall, a workbench with drawers, post vise, and anvil sit. The anvil is positioned near the fireplace, which is used for heat-treating and forming small parts. On the right, a treadle grinder and treadle lathe are positioned, along with a barrel of raw stock. With these tools, the armorer can shape any replacement part except the barrel itself. A trophy for a top twenty finish in the Compétition de tir de précision de la flotte of several years past rests above the fireplace.

@Fraunces @Bodi Thanks! @Captain Genaro Thank you! I think the bows also look fairly blunt because the boat is narrow - it might look a little sharper on a wider boat. And I have already submitted forms for these two, but thank you for the offer! @Darnok As promised a breakdown shot:

To clarify - one entry total per person, or one entry per category? I have a couple ideas but they don't necessarily make sense to have them happening at the same time.

@Roadmonkeytj @Professor Tham @Keymonus Thanks everyone! @Darnok Thanks, I can certainly take some break-down shots later. They are fairly simple construction.

Oleon: Sign-up and Discussion, Era II

Thank you! The torso is Pippin's from Lord of the Rings. -
Very nice! I love all the little market stalls and the menagerie of civilians. Those troops are looking sharp too - almost like real soldiers and not pirates! The hats as barrel lids is a nice touch too.

Oleon: Sign-up and Discussion, Era II
The Sarge replied to blackdeathgr's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Thanks, I'm hoping to stay more active this time! Let's beat those lobsters! -
Harbor Boats A pair of small craft built to the same pattern, common throughout Oleon and her possessions. These tiny Class 0's perform many duties, such as fishing, carrying pilots and officers between ship and shore, moving small amounts of supplies, and charting inland waters. Dame Fortune Dame Fortune is operated out of Lavalette, and typically fishes in the large bay there, where it is relatively safe. She's bringing in quite the bounty today! Angélique Angélique is homeported in Acropolis, on Pharos. Here, she runs daily rations of bread, cheese and wine to the naval ships calling on this fortress harbor.

BoBS Sigfig Guillaume Sebire - Garde du pavillon in La Royale b. 599 AE Guillaume is the youngest son of Pascal Sebire, a decorated cavalry veteran, and Marie-Noël Sebire nee Dumaresq, born in the city of Trigny, Corban, Oleon. He now serves in La Royale as a senior learning officer aboard the gunboat Marteau, stationed in Quilbignon, but word has it they may soon be deployed to eastern waters... -
Shipwrights Guild Hall (WIPs, feedback, and advice)
The Sarge replied to Bregir's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
WiP Galley-Frigate Galley-gunboat I'm working on. Haven't picked a rig or number of masts yet, but she'll mount 10 sweeps on a side, and turn-table mounted cannons fore and aft. I also need to figure out how to tie the stern together nicely. -
Oleon: Sign-up and Discussion, Era II
The Sarge replied to blackdeathgr's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
Sounds good, would it be possible to donate the assets aquired under my old character to Oleon? I would like to start completely fresh if possible (0 DB/0 PIP, no propeties etc). As far as I know there should be no debts. -
Oleon: Sign-up and Discussion, Era II
The Sarge replied to blackdeathgr's topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
I'm spooling back up to start building again, and was wondering what I need to do to go about deep-sixing my old character and starting fresh (still in Oleon, of course!). It's been about two years since I did anything BoBs related and want to have a clean break between the old and new. -
I was checking out the pilots helmets in the Rogue One sets and comparing them to the Visual Dictionary and found a bit of a dissapointment. Set 75162, the Y-wing microfighter, has a helmet that's a perfect match for Blue Four, Barion Raner. Except Raner is black, and the mini fig is... not. Perfect opportunity to give us a black mini fig head with pilots glass and it was missed. I'm no SJW but I like having a full sampler of life, as it were, in my Rebels.

I'm hoping we get a couple more Rogue One sets over the next year to fill some gaps. Ideally: T-65 X-wing, either Partisan X-wing X-wing, the Two Tubes brothers, an astromech, a partisan and a but of scenery Or Blue Squadron X-wing X-wing, General Merrick, Blue Squadron Pilot, Astromech, Rebel Tech, hangar cart And an Eadu set with Landing platform/facility entrance, Galen Erso, Scientist, Stormtroopers x2, Jyn Erso And hopefully a few more figures as exclusives or special offers, like the R3 and Shoretrooper we've seen. Ideally some ones we wouldn't otherwise get like a Partisan, homestead Galen, Lyra Erso, standard K2S0 droid.

Ok, since this is where fishing voyages will fall, how would I write up the route for a fishing expedition off the north coast of Oleon? I presume there are ports there and that I don't need to sail up and around the northeastern horn of the continent, but either way there are no zones there to plot distances. I was figuring on some range 0/range 1 boats going offshore and back, nothing fancy.
-
Is fishing going to be an option in this version as well? And if it is, how could I go about home porting some fishing smacks on the North Oleon coast, since we can now licence builds in the Old World? I asume the risk of pirates up north is less but the weather is worse and the income less.

Found a gift card while cleaning and bought one each of the current Rebel and Imperial packs. Actually, I found two cards, but I'm saving the other for the 2017 packs.

It's not the look of stickers many if us are opposed to, it's the long term durability. Stickers fade, peel and crack in ways that printed parts usually don't. I'd rather have "leftover" heads I can swap around or sell than blank heads because the stickers aged.
-
I like the new Rebel Trooper parts and having the Endor helmet in yet another color. U-wing pilot looks nice too. The sets look like decent parts packs and having the TIE canopies in another set should help drive the prices down.

I'd love to see then do some sets that can be linked together, like they did with the very first Jabbas Palace and two smaller sets. If they did I'd like to see: Cloud City Main set with landing pad, conference room, hallways, and waiting room Lando Leia Bespin Guard Lobot Weathervane Duel Attaches to Cloud City, has the weather vane and maybe another room? Vader Luke Carbonite Freezing Chamber Attaches to Cloud City, just the chamber Han Han in Carbonite Chewbacca Stormtrooper? Ugnaut Cloud Car Fits on the landing platform Bespin Guard Maybe that group could be for 2020 (40 years of ESB) Another group of sets I'd really like would be for Hoth, but that should wait a while after the glut we've had. Maybe 2030 for 50 years. They'd be along the lines of: Echo Base The main hangar, hallways, medbay and communications room Toryn Farr Leia Han Rebel Trooper Snowtrooper Rebel Trenches Attach to side of Echo Base Trench and one of each turret Rebel Trooper x2 Snowtrooper x2 Snowspeeder Fits in hangar Rebel Pilot x2 And then maybe two battlepack released the same time: Rebel BP 3x Rebel Trooper Rebel Officer Infantry Gun Tower Imperial BP 3x Snowtrooper Walker Crewman Tripod Blaster

Thank you everyone! I'll strive to put one carriage out each month.

Thanks guys! @Kolonialbeamter I went back and double checked - last month was 21 db, this month was 20. I've edited my post accordingly. XD Oops!

Thank you very much everyone! To all of you wishing to use the design, feel free to! I'd love to see your takes on it.
