[SR-CH4B] Plundering Plague

[dr_spock]

Our story begins with the Eslandolan treasure ship and her armed escorts anchored in an island cove for the night. Their crew and ships slept peacefully with minimal night watch, confident that no one knew they were there. Little did they know that their secret confidential itinerary had been scandalously kinky compromised.






Like Rodentia Rattus, the pirates used the relative safety of darkness to get around the escort service. They knew they couldn't take on the Eslandolan Ships of the Line. Silence was golden as they paddled towards the anchored ships in the cove.






Soon the treasure ship was infested with Rattus Piratus. The night watch deceased by the plague of cold hard blacksmith steel. The pirates scampered quickly to get the treasure off the ship, tossing treasure chests overboard to waiting hands.






An agreement is an agreement. The pirates returned to the reputable establishment to hand over a share of the treasure for the information provided by "Xenia".






Loose lips didn't sink ships but maybe some Eslandolan officers' careers.

The End

That seems to have gone well for the pirates - but we all know that this is just an unrealistic alternative universe

As I have shown, the pirates have been defeated

I like the presentation at both micro and normal scale. Very nice! And I really like the rigging we see on the Eslandolan ship in the third picture.

Also nice to know those sea rats respect our ships of the line, but now we must send Brickinson after them!

Lovely conclusion!

Very Nice build(s)! :thumbup;

Nice entry !

I like the micro scene to introduce the story, good job !

I am not sure pirates could plunder our great Eslandian fleet like this, but, well it's fictionnal after all :)

Good job !

They had so much gold, even the chests were made out of it!!! Great catch and let's see "Xenia" take over the whole island's business now...

Great story, and nice to see you pick up your 4A entry.

Great to see three well-executed MOCs instead of only one. Compliments the story nicely.

I really like the atmosphere and overall appearance of that micro-fleet-MOC.

Rattus Piratus - you got me lol-ing there
Cool entry, Dr_Spock Love the presentation and more so even the idea of using green minifigs for bodies.

Some say that underneath her makeup 'Xenia' is in fact... Colonel Brickinson *grabspopcorn*

Excellent job on the night shots. I know those are hard to pull off. Seems like an easy haul though. Almost too easy.

On some nights things just work out right.

Thank you.  I'd think Eslandola would spare no expenses on good well built ships and have to save cost on labour like security.

Thank you. I guess she could expand her business on to other islands. Maybe start franchaising.

Thank you.  I almost lost my cup of tea on your Brickson comment.

Thank you.  A tripod and a self-timer were helpful for those type of shots.
