Kaliphlin Guild: Homepage, Sign-up and Discussion

[Infernum]

I think this one's purely judged not only to find the best of each guild but the overall winner too.

Really? I thought there was a vote.

[soccerkid6]

There is going to be a vote for the official story, quote: "-After the close of the competition period, a vote will commence to decide which entry will represent the official lore of the Guilds of Historica! Only members of the Guilds of Historica will be allowed to particiapte in this vote."

Meant to post in the questions thread

Ha, ha. That was close!

No problem Kaliphlin can use more comments...

I had assumed you posted here because we Kaliphlins are the most knowledgeable in Historica....

[kabel]

he posted here so we couldn't catch up with you, soccerkid, you traitor!

I got a few new soldiers for Kaliphlin - 20 new crownies and 18 new dragons. (Thanks TRU BOGO 50% sale!) I think both fit our color scheme nicely and add some diversity to our troops. I am going to try and get them into a MOC before I leave on the 20th. I will be gone the rest of May though. I probably won't have time to check the forums while I am gone. Just letting you all know I am not disappearing.

Have a safe travel!

I'm debating whether I want to get the small castle set. I think what tempts me the most is the treasure... I can't get enough of those 1x1 gold tiles.

indeed! And for Kaliphlin, I think the minifigs are awesome as well!

I plan on getting a couple, four figs, leaves, reddish brown 1x1 bricks, and 1x1 round tiles make it a quite attractive set for the price

I spent next month's Lego money going back to TRU today. I still couldn't bring myself to buying two of the castles to take advantage of BOGO50%, but I did get another 6 of the small sets and two of the dragon sets. Repetitive, yes; but, as most of you know, I am an army builder. I couldn't pass up $9 for four soldiers, a dog, and the gold.

Ohhhh.... and, TRU had all the new LOTR stuff. Unfortunately, the markup negates or makes worse the BOGO50% but once S@H has the ship in, you can bet you will see more of Eastgate's Navy in the coming year. The Elrond set looks really good up close and personal.

TRU that I went to had every set but the dragon mountain which is the only one I had planned to buy. They said they are getting another truck today so I'm going to check again tonight. I'm leaning towards getting 2 of the small army builders sets and I plan on picking up more CMF Centurians and Amazons which I had gotten there yesterday. Surprisingly the boxes didn't seem to be picked through & @ $2.50 a piece its the best time to pick up the CMF's

I picked up two of the Dragon Mountain, so I bet your store is just getting them late.

I spent too much of CMFs already, I was very tempted though. I do have a good handful of each (Warrior woman and Roman) though. Well more like ten of each, IF those Romans had shields, I would probably be broke.

[Legonardo]

ok then, Im wrong. votes are fun anyway :)

[Kayne]

Way off topic here, but Legonardo I must say that while I've noticed some really nice builds coming out of you.....seeing them lined up in your sig really made me see how great they've been lately!

[Legonardo]

thanks kayne :) what was the prize meant to be?

[soccerkid6]

@Legonardo: If you mean for the voting, then I think the main prize is having your story become the official ending to the first section of GoH. Though this is part of the Challenge VI description: "We have prizes and tags, and we aren't afraid to use them!"

[Kai NRG]

Another free-build from me!

I have two more almost ready, but I need to get the storyline and photos of one of them.

[Gideon]

Built a small free-build in front of the TV this afternoon while watching the ice hockey world championship finals, looks more Avalonian than Kaliphlin but it shows a part of northern Kaliphlin (north of Eastgate actually) which actually has a very pleasant climate and lush forests.

[Nightstalker]

My trip to Petraea

[SkaForHire]

A couple of nice builds there Gideon and Nightstalker.

I like the tall trees Gideon, and your figs are always excellent. It is nice to see the wither woods again.

Great little scene Nightstalker, I like the use of the shredder helmet!

On another note, I didn't have time to make the MOC with the new figs, and I am gone for ten days after this post, so I probably won't be logging on much... Unless my brother and I do something crazy and build a whole battlefield and do another call to arms next weekend -- which is what happened last year when I went home to visit in the summer.

Don't let the Avalonians take over Kaliphlin while I am gone, and please, someone private message me if they open up voting before June, I wouldn't want to miss that!

[Maxim I]

I'll try to remember Ska!

Enjoy your visit!

Anyone else who thinks flickr has become unusable today?

Ridiculously slow and half the time just doesn't want to load pages for me...

It's mostly due to the changes they made. Honestly, I'm most likely going to drop that site for something else (Like brickshelf).

Yeah, the changes are somewhat annoying particularly the ridiculous amount of black space around each photo... which I hope gets changed. I do find the greater amount of space nice though.
