Pie108 Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I have built LEGO's quite a long time and love star wars. I want to build a huge base but should I make it a Separatists or Republic base. I kind of don't want to do a droid base because there are not that many main characters. Only Asajj, Count and General Grevious(who i don't have ) Please don't say I should make a jawa or tusken base because I just don't have that many of certain figs except clones and droids. Thank You!

The Crazy One Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I would love a Tusken base........ No, Clone Base all the way. But, why have you made this topic, if you don't want to make a Droid one? Quote
Oky Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 Yeah, Republic bases are always more interesting than Separatist ones. I'd go for that. Quote
Pie108 Posted October 25, 2009 Author Posted October 25, 2009 (edited) @ The crazy one I would not mind a droid base and would have fun making it. It is just I listed one bad thing. Maybe someone would have a nice suggestion for a droid base. Edited October 25, 2009 by Pie108 Quote
-JD- Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 @ The crazy oneI would not mind a droid base and would have fun making it. It is just I listed one bad thing. Maybe someone would have a nice suggestion for a droid base. I always try to add a little humour in my MOCs. How about a oil room with droids bathing in an oil bath? For the more serious side, I would have a repair dock, droid construction line and hangar area. Quote

Maybe I will make a droid base. Quote
Ratshot Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I say a Republic base, there are far more possibilities with clones than with droids. Quote
Commander Flash Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Republic base sounds like a better idea. There is much more possibilities. As JD said, humor is always good in a MOC. But make sure to add some serious parts as well. Just putting it out there, a sith base (KotOR) would be interesting. CloneKiller has a great sith soldier decal. Good luck. Quote
CommanderFox Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 (edited) I'd go with Republic Pie108, as some people have said, there are alot of possibilities with Clones Though that idea of Jammiedodger714's is a Great one on the other hand maybe a Droid base would be better. Its your choice. I hope you decide and make a great base If it's gonna be a republic one, then add Fox CommanderFox Edited October 26, 2009 by CommanderFox Quote
Big Cam Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 I think you answered your own question. Droids stink, go with a republic base! Quote
Ratshot Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Droids stink, go with a republic base! Are you prejudice Quote
Pie108 Posted October 26, 2009 Author Posted October 26, 2009 If it's gonna be a republic one, then add Fox CommanderFox I have commander Fox. Quote
Big Cam Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Are you prejudice Only against those pesky Clankers If they are not good enough for the Emperor, they aren't good enough for me. Quote
Ratshot Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Only against those pesky Clankers If they are not good enough for the Emperor, they aren't good enough for me. I couldn't agree more Seriously though, I think that Lego droids are useless, there too flimsy and they don't pose well. Death to Battle Droids Quote
Oky Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 If you need ideas for a Republic base, I recommend watching the CW episode "Hidden Enemy" again. Most of the episode takes place in a Republic base and offers some good ideas, such as a briefing room or a mess hall. Quote
BlueDragonZ Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Definaley a republic base as clone troopers are much cooler ! Quote
CommanderCody77 Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 I would say a Clone base because it would be much more interesting and you said you don't have much Separatist leaders so Clone base all the way! Quote
RileyC Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 Definitely republic. You get more variety and better major minifigs Quote
CommanderFox Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 I have commander Fox. GREAT! all the more to go with Republic If they are not good enough for the Emperor, they aren't good enough for me. Good point Big Cam Seriously though, I think that Lego droids are useless, there too flimsy and they don't pose well. Yes the BD's aren't great when they are needed in a photo shoot CommanderFox Quote
CloneCommanderDelta7 Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 Well, a Republic base is often filled with vehicles, Jedi, equipment (such as winches, cranes, transports, fuel, etc) and other war machines so it is vital that you have many of these things to make it look realistic. Also you should include base artillary. Quote
Pie108 Posted October 27, 2009 Author Posted October 27, 2009 Also you should include base artillary. That's a great idea but, like you said above I would have alot of other stuff to do so I wouldn't have alot of bricks. The walls would use a ton of bricks. I would not have much to make artillery with. I'm going to hvae 9 grey baseplates for the inside surrounded by some green baseplates for the outside. I would put some clones with turrets on the green baseplates instead of artillery.I also have the spongebob hospital set and am going to use the ambulance and the thing to carry spongebob on for injured clones. I might even keep the fish doctor just for laughs! I'll tell you when I have some more parts planned out. Suggestions are welcome. Quote
sigpro Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 You can get ideas from my Imperial Base, for the kind of buildings you would need and so on. Regards and luck in your construction. Quote
