*stabs Greggers* Err, I mean, oh. But no word on what kind of vehicle, I take it?

The final formation I am going with is this, I do believe: 4 X-Wings 4 Y-Wings 3 A-Wings 2 B-Wings So, to fight them, I need: TIE Fighter TIE/d Fighter TIE Interceptor TIE Bomber

I double that. Do we even know if hes going to be on a vehicle at all?!

Death Eater?

No, they're not, but they're sure as hell trying to be.

You forgot Classic-Pirate.com :P Er, I think thats what it is, anyway...

Playing is nothing to me without the background story. Without a background story, its sensless action. Nah, if you want to see me overthinking something, check out these two threads: http://eurobricks.hosting.ipsyn.com/eurofo...?showtopic=7858 http://eurobricks.hosting.ipsyn.com/eurofo...&hl=Archipalego In my opinion, I have yet to think the Angelo 13 through enough :P

Hm, true enough, but I'm wondering if only 2 Headhunters would be deployed in a squadron this small...?

Hello, I have decided to found my own small Star Wars collection. While I have, over the past 7 years, gotten the occasional (usually small) Star Wars set, i've never been that big into it. Upon finding and buying a complete 2006 A-Wing for $2 at a flea market, I have decided to re-found the star-wars toys that DID hold my interest: my old collection of Star Wars Micromachines. However, this time around, the vehicles in question would be Legos. Back then - years and years ago - I named my Rebel squadron the "Angelo 13". The basic idea was that, at the time of the disbanding of the Imperial Senate, one particular politician - Alexander Bronte - with gobs of money basically managed to buy over 300 starfighters and a capital-ship class carrier with the Empires credits, founding his own strikeforce and joining up with the Rebel Alliance. Alexander Bronte, then, keeps 13 squadrons of 13 starfighters equipped and ready at all times, using the remaining 200 or so to replace those that get destroyed. He has his own flight training academy on board. He was instrumental in the destruction of the second Death Star because he intercepted and destroyed - at great cost - a troop carrier carrying an experimental legion of Storm Troopers that far surpassed in skill, training, and every other feild even the elite regiments stationed on Endor. However, because of it, only 3 Squadrons of 13 each participated in the battle itself, as all the other squadrons had taken conciderable losses. The period im aiming for, then, is five years afterword with the Imperial Navy fighting the New Republic with Lord Thrawn at their head. Owning his own ships, he was not forced to go into civillian service like the rest of the fleet. Since he has an entire military machine at his disposal, he took the fight to Lord Thrawn in a prolonged gurilla-war action against the Imperial Navy. After he found the Dreadnoughts and manned them with clones, the Angelo 13 were somewhat reorganized as Dreadnought destroyers. Alexander Bronte has managed to procure something of an eclectic mix of ships, but all have been brought up to top techinal specs. I was planning, then, for each Squadron to have the following roster: 1 Clone-Wars Vintage ARC 170 Starfighter, Squadron Leader 2 A-Wings - Fast Attack 2 B-Wings - Support for the A-Wings 2 V-Wings - Skirmishers/support for the ARC 170 3 X-Wings - Attack fighter / Cover Fire for the Y-Wings 3 Y-Wings - Bomber Obviously, I would not ACTUALLY be buying 3/2 of each ship, but that would be the squadron format. Arrayed against them would be the normal mix of the 4 different TIE Fighters. So, before I go trying to track down and buy any of these sets, what would you, the resident EB Star Wars "loremasters", have to say about my storyline/squadron configuration? Thanx, - Ravensdorn

Mutation: Legos exuse to design ugly-as-all-getout sets.

Yes, I am an avid Games-Workshop fanboy and play both Warhammer 40K and Warhammer Fantasy. The Warhammer hobby is far more important to me then Lego and takes up most of my hobby time and interest. My current crowning acheivement is taking Bronze in the Age 14 and under category of the Golden Demon competition. The GDCompetition, for those of you who dont know, is one of the most prestegious painting competitions in the world and there are only four of them held per year in the US :P Linky: http://gamesday.us.games-workshop.com/Game...s/cat8_page.htm The reason I have not been doing much with my Lego as of late is primarily due to Warhammer; I am preparing a Gorkamorka table for Gamesday (Ork on Ork Combat!), asembling and painting my next Golden Demon entry, and hand sculpting and casting a Spartan army for use in the upcoming worldwide Warhammer Fantasy campaign :) This is why, to me, Lego bricks are just an amusement. If any of you are interested, I'll post some pics of some of my current work. @ EXO-CHAMP - Excellent models, dude! Im loving the trait chaptor. A bit heavy on the ink wash and a bit slim on highlighting, perhaps, but SUPERB tabletop quality. Well done!

Im with Kynok; It really should be noted that the reason that there are no real heated arguments or debates on BZP is because A: Damn near all of the oldguard, such as myself, have either left or dont care anymore B: Most of the current readership has the same opinion "Greg Rulez!111 BIONICLE R T3H FTW!11" 3: Anything that approaches a real heated debate is killed by the mods because it will most likely not be handled in a mature way. I come here for the same reason as Kynok; the community is much smaller, much more personal, and, on average, much more intelligent. But also as Kynok said, that is MY OPINION. I like it here because I can have a real discussion with good people.

Im good with bley for the sole reason that I can get so much of it for so cheap on Bricklink.

But it wouldnt be off topic if its topic title was changed to General Bionicle Discussion!

Ah - MY kind of Mecha :) Well done!

Eh - This is why I said the topic name should be changed to General Bionicle Discussion :) Face it, theres only so much we can talk about on those set images... Anyway, I plan on getting a few of the Mahri for use as Fell Seekers to pit against my Toa Metru. Jus' gotta throw away those HORRIBLE launchers is all :P

BMP = the normal and highest resolution that MSPaint saves files in. In order to post an image damn near anywhere, you have to save the picture in MSPaint to a GIF, JPEG, or PNG format. I suggest PNG - It doesnt result in color loss, the other two will. You can see some of my work in MSPaint here: http://www.maj.com/gallery/Aramir/MoraNui/arkaina1.png

Thankee, man :) Sadly, BZP did not think so, and barely anyone posted. Well, its good to see sprite comics like "Fat Turkeys will Own you on the Wii" lives on... |-/ Hmm... P'raps write it for EuroBricks...? :P

Speaking of BZP... Heres my short lived (two weeks, six episodes) comic that I had going. I dropped it out of lack of interest - Apparently, the lower the quality of the work, the more comments it gets... http://www.maj.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=125354

We're keeping the spam on topic :) ... Hey DF? We just posted two more posts of spam... :( So to make it moderately less spam, can we petition to have the topic changed from Toyfair 2007 Bionicle Set Images to "General BIONICLE Discussion"? :P

Quaint.
