Who is going to win this epic race?

After the peace on earth with pirates and imperials, the Redcoats and Bluecoats also decided to give peace. But with peace on earth, what are they going to do with all those cannons? Well one day a man thought of a great idea. The first ever water jet ski! Simply a cannon with a seat on it. Since these were dangerous, people hardly use these but every year Redcoats and Bluecoats gather on top of rocky island and watch as men from each side compete for the champion of rocky island! Using these cannon water jet skis. These were the first ever jet skis so they had no steering and no brakes which means this race could mean death…

The first contest, a skeet tournament

Pirate captains often suffer from ‘Post- war Syndrome’, a long hatred for their enemies. After regular visits to the crazy house the waring captains are given a regime where they are set against each other in a number of contests.  Only time will tell to see if these contests really work out, or if they’ll just increase the tension.

Big fish involved in a duel!

Since the peaceful time came, duels couldn’t be done using swords or pistols anymore. The governor found a solution by letting duelists using fishes. This is the best way not to get anyone hurt, while allowing gentlemen that have a problem to solve it with honor.

Are the pirates doomed or are they fleeing to freedom?

Eurobricks member Lego_Warlord_8 has been working on this brilliant entry in the medium division. The Grand Escape is full of action and nice minifigure posings. It looks like some pirates have just escaped from prison, and they are now rowing to sea and freedom! But first they should get rid of the chasing Imperial Guards! Will the pirates escape or will they end hanging on the gallows anyway?

A very handy ship!

In times of peace in the Caribbean, trade among everyone boomed without the threat of a pirate attack. Smaller ships such as this one where specifically for that purpose. With small crews and little to no defense they would stand no chance against pirate attacks, but in peaceful times they could be counted on to trade up and down the coasts.

Strange shiny things flying in the air...

In the early morning, at a port allied with the Imperial Fleet, mischief is at hard work. Knowing that the Captain Stelivus doesn’t take well to stories of abnormal activities from abroad, one of the cabin boys, Peter, decided to make good of a poor situation for the captain. Stelivus had spent the previous evening at a feast for the local governor and came back to his room late, refusing to let any wine go to waste. Peter had planned for such a perfect set up for some time with one of the sailors, Jack.
Jack and Peter fashioned a so called “UFO” from some scrap steel, some ingenuity, and some precious stones they’d found.

A new way to move yourself over water!

Having mor free time during the peace, pirates started upgrading their seafaring technologies. A simple accident, which happened to the crew of one small boat opened the door for massife use of bio traction power instead of obsolete oars and sails.
