Tezclatipoca Posted January 26, 2017 Posted January 26, 2017 (edited) According to the Kings Port Advertiser : Puerto Alijo 4 0 0 Raided by MAR privateer "Le Penguin". Jasmyn Cuervo taken prisoner In those times of war there is no port safe for the Eslandolan realm. Even little hamlets such Puerto Alijo have been raided by the Mardieran fleet ! The mighty Empire used all its power by sea in order to pillage every town its fleet could reach. The sea was covered by Yellow and Orange Armadas ! They entered and pillaged at will every eslandolan spot on the outer seas... It was perceived in Mardier as a good way to finance the war and a way to hit Eslandola directly to where it hurts : the wallet ! The problem is what to do when you're landing to a little port like Puerto Alijo, just a nice little cove hamlet secured by a straight pass on Torach Bonn ? The Mardier privateer named "Le pingouin" thought it could be a good spot to pillage. No security and no Eslandolan army presence. A piece of cake ! The vessel of the Privateer entered in the cove but all its heavy escort made by strongly armed Mardieran vessels had to wait outside the port due to a lack of place to manoeuvre. The port is small and there is not enough place for a large vessel ! Nevertheless, "Le Pingouin" landed alone with some of his Mardier friends but they encountered resistance in the person of Lady Jazmyn Cuervo. Swift and at ease with a rapier, Lady Jazmyn put on difficulty some mardieran soldiers but "Le Pingouin" stopped her by threatening her by his pistol ! She finished firmly tied up and she was put aboard the ship of "Le Pingouin" with the (very) light loot the Privateers could find. This build is the first part of the Adventures of Lady Cuervo. I made this MOC to show a view of Puerto Alijo and to help @Stash2Sixx. I am leaving him the right to licence my build as a MRCA result for this month. Edited January 26, 2017 by Faladrin Quote
kaiju Posted January 26, 2017 Posted January 26, 2017 I really like your microscale model of the settlement. Quote
Stash2Sixx Posted January 26, 2017 Posted January 26, 2017 OH WOW!!! This is great! Great interpretation of the town Puerto Alijo. I like how it looks so peaceful...serene...a quiet lil port on the coast. And then Mardier rears it's ugly face and messes everything up!!! Stealing my wife, terrible people. Just terrible! Jazmyn is not afraid to fight back, you got that right. And I love the fact that the Marderians needed that much rope to tie her up! She's a fighter and not one to give in. Faladrin, you are too kind, and much appreciated. Thank you! Quote

I wanted to do a micro settlement initially and then the MRCA result gave me the opportunity to develop more in it. 31 minutes ago, Stash2Sixx said: OH WOW!!! This is great!

I like the fact that Jazmyn can fight back and that she is not a lovely waiting wife. I had to use too more ships, too more rope and too much of everything like Mardier seemed to have done this last MRCA. It is giving a good cartoonish aspect finally, and I find this aspect nice to lighten the weight of that war. Again, thank you very much ! Quote
Kai NRG Posted January 26, 2017 Posted January 26, 2017 Awesome that you guys are getting some story motivation out of this... I really like where it's going so far! And the microscale is great! Quote
gedren_y Posted January 26, 2017 Posted January 26, 2017 Isn't it ironic that an island called 'pregnant coin' would have so little of the stuff for those Mardier scallywags to steal. Torrach Bonn seems quite an idyllic place. Pretty homes, nice foliage, and fierce women. Quote
blackdeathgr Posted January 28, 2017 Posted January 28, 2017 Epic stuff Faladrin! Especially the microscale settlement is great! We are eagerly waiting for your stories to continue! Quote

I think this is one of the many aspects of this game.

That's why I turned it to ridiculous using too big and too many ships and too much rope. 2 hours ago, blackdeathgr said: Epic stuff Faladrin! Especially the microscale settlement is great!

Captain Dee Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Really nice microscale arrangement - I particularly like the jungle in the background. It looks thick and wild like a jungle should look. Adding the minifig scale scene is a great way to illustrate the main point of the story, which is certainly an interesting read. Good work. Quote
Elostirion Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 That is really, really cool. The depiction of the jungle, the bay and the small town - impressive work, really love it! Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 Brilliant! I love the way you tell your story with micro and mini-builds. So, what will happen to your "damsel in distress"? Quote
