Welcome Jeff of Clubs. If you are looking for action, you are in the right place.

It's the infamous captain Iron Hook, he's on strike 'cause he refuses to cover his hands hook with dirt.

I spent them all , it's expensive to maintain a fleet, but be assured I'll figure out a way to reimburse you.

Previously... Nola Mar Forgotten Isle Unlike Breschaun or Eltina, jewels of Nouvelles Terres, Ile sous le Vent was a tiny, uninhabitable island. Ironically, the last visitors were wearing red and brandishing Corries colors. On the other hand, this sudden irruption has drawn the attention of some Oleans, making them realizing that something has to be done to put things back in order. The captain Surlecoup, following Duc Boussac's plan, has anchored his small fleet in the bay of that island, soon, settlers composed of veterans of TV campaign, privateers and their families set to work and a colonny began to take its form.

Nice scene! Great technique for building roads, the trees and grass all look good too.

Thanks for commenting. Looking forward to your twodecker too, I like tall ships!

Thanks NOD, glad you found it interesting. Thanks, and I agree with you that the ship is stealing the show.

Another fine boat from you, Brix, it's quite detailed for something of its size and it isn't on the small side, as most of Bobs gunboats are, it's good to see you managed to work out a "true to life" model.

Captain Surlecoup left the Duc without further inquiry and made his way for the port. He'd have preferred to have a better understanding of his mission but he knew he had to find the answer himself, as he wasn't asked to pose questions. Once on board of his new ship, he ordered to set course to a mysterious isle that doesn't appear on any nautical chart and lock himself in his quarter with the instruction of informing him only when they arrive at their destination. The ship dropped anchor after an uneventful, there was a tiny isle with some kind of structures on it. Standing on the deck, Captain Surlecoup pulled out an envelope from his large pocket and read it content again, "it must be here, the secret deposit of Duc d'Eranos." Indeed, it was the Duc de Tourment (@blackdeathgr), the legendary Doublonoi who has financed this enterprise with his own funds. Immediately, a long boat was lowered and rowed towards the isle. "We should have broughts more men with us, this looks a pirate lair to me," said Mr.Fish. "Don't worry, my dear, they should fear us in that case," replied Surlecoup, "besides,don't you see that they are flying the Olean colors?" Effectively, despite its appearance, it was guarded by a handful of Olean marines, who thought Surlecoup's men were there to relieve them. They felt terribly disappointed when they learned these sailors came here only to retrieve some gold. "Messieurs, can you stop spying at our pigsty? Your gold is over there." said an expressionless marine, while pointing a sandbank. "You know, Mr.Fish, you were right, we should have brought more men with us," sighed Surlecoup when they finally managed to remove the statue and retrieve the gold chest beneath it.

Wonderful scenery, such an assortment of pieces, nice job.

Nice little build, I like the combination of arches and sticks. @Bregir, this sudden outburst is definitely suspicious.

It's huge, I need a loupe to see all the details, nice job!

Thanks. Now I remember I got one these cards from the court too, though I'm still not clear about the criteria of their allocation.

Very nice boat, the shaping of the hull looks really good, hope you could build it in real bricks one day.

@CapOnBOBS I think it should be a class 5 too, though I could support your argument of a class 6 if you could extend it further and add another mast. I have an example of a brig with bow, 4 midsections and stern, and it's a class 5. And another example of a class 6, with bow, 6 midsections and overhang.

Interesting. What should I do if I want to have one of those cards too?

Is it a fact or self-proclaimed? Both ships look good, and I like the background too.

A medium culture property: War Monument @Ross Fisher feel free to license it for the settlement.

Ofc, I'm adding it now.

Indeed, a white background and better lighting would help a lot.

Thank you Mister Phes. And I know I'm not good at photography.

Nice build, I like the landscape, the tree and the brick-built sheep.

Looks great! I like your building style.

Thank you Kwatchi, long time no see. It;s a good way to remember the fallen soldiers I guess. Thank you Thaum. Thank you Brickwolf.

The Duc of Boussac stood slone in the square and begun to read one by one the names engraved on the steles, till a name appeared before his eyes "Capitaine de vaisseau T. Lagaufre, KIA". He remained thoughtful for a moment when a voice broke the silence and echoed in the empty place. "Monsieur le Duc." The Duc looked away from the steles and saw a man wearing a large tricorn approaching. "Capitaine Surlecoup, I was waiting for you," said Boussac with an indiscernible smile, "I have a mission for you, my friend, but first of all, tell me how's the moral of your men?" Surlecoup saluted and answered quickly "Excellent, monsieur, they felt honoured to pull their blades for Oleon, although..."the captain paused and mumbled his words,"they haven't been paid since months." "This is exactly why I asked you to come here", said the Duc, "I can't pay your men right now, but I can offer you another opportunity to make some doubloons, here's what you are going to do..."
