A full year has gone by since Heroica RPG launched in the Games Forum at Eurobricks, and it has grown to a beloved community project with over 80 players. Not only can you enlist as a hero and embark on adventures around a unique fantasy world in Heroica RPG, but you can also create your own content for the game and help with managing the plethora of aspects in it.

To celebrate this first anniversary, the game manager Sandy has created several special events for the game:

* An in-game Lottery, where players can win rare and unique items in a raffle – which has already begun! *

* A whole new shop has opened at the Marketplace, selling much-coveted artefacts. *

* Three new quests hosted by the game manager will begin in August, one of which is something totally new and exciting – an unlimited quest concentrating solely on battles and gaining experience. *

* The Training Room will be updated with new levels of job classes that will be available to high-ranking heroes: the Expert and the Master Job Classes. *

* And there’s a special surprise to all those who have contributed a quest or another topic to this game – without you guys this game would not be what it is today, so thank you! *

If you’ve never even heard of the game, come and check out the fun the players are having. And what better time to join the fun than now?

Police Infiltration: A Mafia School Game

In the happy town of Kirksville the citizens are mostly well behaved, but those intent on breaking the law are dealt with efficiently by the large police department. Unfortunately, the falling crime rates are not to everyone’s tastes, and in an effort to “represent their business interests” the local Mafia have had to resort to infiltrating the police themselves. As events take a turn for the worse for the Chief of Police, the station is forced into lockdown and the Police workers and the Mafiosos are forced to deal with each other in the most basic terms, as they fight for the future of Kirksville.

Two Sensational LEGO Train Stations!

Eurobricks Train Tech does not only host some of the best LEGO Train MOCs among the LEGO Train community, but also is home to many trackside buildings including these two recent creations by LEGO Train fans Selander and Asper. Selander has created a beautiful Swedish-style station utilizing LEGO's new brick facade bricks, called Klossboda Railway Station. Wonderful colors as well as the addition of a small cargo shed highlight his LEGO Train station while Asper seems to capture a more classic-look with modern LEGO design simply called Small Train Station. Prominently seen is the fantastic roof design and use of vintage red LEGO windows.

Both LEGO Train stations serve as great examples of the diversity and quality of creations by LEGO Train Tech members. Make sure you stop by both stations to appreciate all the splendid details!
