A mini-diorama.
Mariann Asanuma: After surviving twenty long years on the high seas, three mutinies (two of them he instigated), and being stranded on a desert island five times Captain Brickbeard has decided to retire and give up his life of plundering and pillaging -- well semi-retire, you can never have enough plundering in your life.

Now we all know where the bell sound comes from!
Eurobricks member Derfel Cardarn strikes again! This time he has been working on this church! With some great building and landscaping techniques he managed to surprise us once again. There is even a sinister story behind it which you really have to read! Perhaps we will see some night scenes in the near future as well...
Now hurry to the forum and discuss For Whom The Bell Tolls by Derfel Cardarnbefore the priest closes the doors!

Watch out for the Blowgunners!
Exotrator surprises us with his nice comeback, making a Spanish Colonial Outpost! There are a lot of cool aspects in his creation, the landscaping looks great and there is an interesting Carib blowgunner in there as well.
Make sure you check Exotrator's Colonial Outpost out before the Carib blowgunners capture the outpost!

Many months ago an Imperial Governor was captured aboard a Pirate vessel. Soon after the Pirates got caught up in a terrible storm and were shipwrecked upon a desert island along with the captive governor. After running out of provisions from the Captains cabin the wrecked crew are waiting for rescue on a diet of bananas and fish.

I caught a fish!
The new MOC from Matn, Shipwreck Island, mixes many different techniques and ideas in to a well designed MOC. It has the right amount of Island, Sea and other scenic elements like the wrecked ship's cabin. Also adding the authentic looking tent created by using the ship's sail was a nice and well pulled off idea.
Go and check out Shipwreck Island by Matn in the forum!

In 1814 Hound Knight took a little trip,
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'.
They took a little bacon and they took a little beans,
Then Hound Knight made a model of the Battle of New Orleans.
They fired their guns and the British kept a'comin.
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago.
We fired once more and they began to runnin' on
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico!
Come to the Pirates forum to see Hound Knight's Battle of New Orleans!

RoVer created this massive diorama MOC in LCAD. It is a large Imperial base with a small town in the back, protected by many cannons and soldiers that constantly patrol its borders.

One, two, three, four...right turn!
This picture clearly shows the potential of LCAD, that has nearly infinite parts (in contrast to LDD). RoVer promised to continue the work on this WIP/MOC as soon as he graduates from University!
Come on over to the Classic Pirates forum to discuss this magnificent LCAD MOC.

Clash! The Pirates are attacking the Imperials again. Armed with deadly rapiers and cutlasses alike. The Imperials are outnumbered but the Pirates are too crowded and can't fight easily. Who will come out on top?

Man overboard!
Gusalagupagoo takes us to a new perspective on ship to ship combat. Forget all your galleons and warships and bring in your small rowing boats and prepare for battle.
