Lately we have had a lot of polls of in which we vote on who is the best leader, so I thought I would start one between Governor Broadside, and Admiral Woodhouse. I personally like Gov.Broadside better. Not sure why.

MAY I HAVE A POLL ADDED PLEASE. THANKS

So is that blue coated mini-figure which appears in 6242 Soldier's Fort - is he supposed to be a new governor?

Probably yes, or an admiral or other high ranked figure, with a role similar to broadside or woodhouse.

Woodhouse gets my vote, I wish I had more than one.

I've merged the topics, as there doesn't seem to be much point having seperate - and very similar - ones.

I've also added the figure from Soldiers' Fort; we'll refer to him as The Governor, until we get a proper name :pir-wink:

I have to say, the new govenor is my favorite. This is due to the fact that he is able to kep some semblance of order in the Carribbean with relatively few men (In think there are only 8 total); 1 fort; and three small boats (one of which has a cannon mounted to it, so it soon will be two boats). So the fact that he exists without being overrun, and is actually seen fighting, are my reasons for choosing the governor.

I disagree with Huntleyfx, the new Governor doesn't have a ship or even a name. I personally think he cheesy.

For some reason though, I'm not sure why, I really like the torso, probably because it one of the few torsos that would be really appropriate for the Royal Navy.

Broadside for sure! Because with the new Pirates series, it turns out he also leads the redcoats (the 'new' governor is called Broadside in the Lego Battles game).

I voted for King Kahuka. He managed to mold a tribe of bloodthirsty, primitive, pirate-fightin' savages into literate, cultured, pirate-fightin' savages. The Islanders are the coolest subtheme to ever sail the Lego Spanish Main. And Kahuka has the coolest hat TLG has ever invented.

I'm just curious, can anyone tell me where the name Admiral Woodhouse comes from? I'm definitely not an expert when it comes to these things, but I've never seen anything released by Lego that calls him that. In addition, I was going through some old catalogs and one from 1995 listed the leader of the Imperial Flagship (6271) as Governor Broadside. Now I know that Lego does screw up names etc, quite a bit in different publications, but I thought that was pretty interesting. If anyone can shed some light on this I'd greatly appreciate it!

I voted for Captain Ironhook because he always appealed to me as not having as much power as Captain Roger but for being a bit of a sneaky pirate who would fight if he had to (lego pirate misadventure, on youtube portrays him best). Admiral Woodhouse has a close second because I like the redcoats for the set imperial trading post.

Captain Redbeard is close but he appears in too many sets.

Back when he first came out he was only in the BSB and Eldorado Fortress.

My vote goes to one of my favorite figs, Governor Broadside, who to this day only appeared in the Caribbean Clipper and Eldorado fortress, both were slightly different because of the different colored plumes he wore.

He is also a very cool fig, I loved his torso and printed bricorn hat. :thumbup:

:shark:
