It's a building, it's a boat, it's Crimson Permanent Assurance
What do you get when you combine a modular building with a classic Pirate ship? You get gotoAndLego’s latest creation, Crimson Permanent Assurance. This excellent combination of the two really gets you thinking. Plus you need to explore all the pictures to really see all the details, canons in the windows, a plank on the top floor, and an anchor to the sidewalk.

What's everyone so happy about? The New Mill I'm sure
Drinking Rum, reading maps, holding a gun to someones back. All can be seen right here. Why all the excitement you ask? The Old Mill is up and running. The detail work is outstanding. The pebble work, and tiling on the walls. You really need to go over this MOC with a fine toothed comb to catch all the details.
See all the details of the Old Mill in the Pirate Forum.

Cute, isn't it?
Check out this sweet little land-based MOC made by new Classic-Pirates.com and Eurobricks user Nick McLego. It’s the very first creation he shared with us and you must admit it’s a pretty good way to introduce oneself!
There’s a whole lot of detail for a MOC this size, including a cave, the interior of the outpost itself and even a small ship!

What a nice outpost. That is a place where you would like to be on guard.
It’s always a great joy for the eyes when NewRight presents a new building.
And also this time he did not disappointed us. This outpost of the Armada is built with lovely attention to detail, such as the burning courtyard and shooting cannons. The building itself has an interesting wall-pattern and the overall picture is rounded off by a convincing landscape.

The place for a pirate to hide, stash the treasure and get drunk!
Our MOC-Expert Derfel Cardarn presents us his latest work. He decided to present this MOC because it was some time ago since his last Pirate MOC, and we are glad he did! Filled with great detail, landscaping work and architecture. Take a look at the bridges for example!
Off you go to see the Rocky Reef Hideout by Derfel Cardarn in the forum!

It's a bad bad day for the Redcoats
The Tournament of Retribution may be over but that’s not stopping these Redcoats from getting whats coming to them. The villagers got revenge on their Redcoat oppressors. I wonder if they’ll make a good fertilizer?

Let the LEGO group know what you think!
The LEGO group wants to hear from you! They want to know more about the needs and wishes of the global AFOL and TFOL communities. In the forum you can also find the key findings of the last survey and discuss your answers. The survey won’t take you more than 5 minutes and it’s worth the effort.
So fill in this online survey and discuss it in the Pirates LEGO forum afterwards!

What a beautiful ship, sailing on the seven seas.
This beautiful vessel is the first attempt in shipbuilding by mlucas86 and immediately a great success. Apart from the successful presentation, based on the ocean, it has to offer many more well built details. Such as, the sails, the rigging and the stern. But, did you see the mermaid? Further details and a making-of can be seen in the Forum.

That rock doesn't seem very good-natured...
A brave admiral is saving his daughter from a bunch of vicious pirates. That’s what this MOC is about. That is, I think it is, it’s a brickshelf find. Legohaulic has made a great pirate hideout in the shape of something like a skull. Not only the rock is a wonderfoul creation, it also has a nice interior with lots of gold, ladders and plants (and pirates of course).

Well-rigged, strong and fast.
Eurobricks member Mr. Phes has found a nice ship on Flickr. It’s a 22-gun ship with a rather nice colourscheme and a great rigging. A fast and powerful vessel with a nice ‘classic lego feeling’ over it. There are only 2 pictures, but they are certainly worth to take a look at.

There she is!
After 1,5 years of building, the 20 gun frigate Vesta has finally been completed! The hard work of Admiral Croissant has defenitely paid off. With a great playable rigging, this vessel is truely special. The ship has several nice aspects on board, the ship is modular, that grants the Vesta an interior and playability! A strong crew, some fierce guns and a fast vessel makes this ship a must for every fleet.
See the Vesta by Admiral Croissant for yourself in the forum!

Seems like good fun!
New Classic-Pirates.com user gatorzip02 has recently shown us an innovative way to play with Pirate LEGO. All you need is a board game called Pirate’s Cove. If you have it, you can play it using LEGO ships and islands. You can use sets, MOCs – big ones, small ones – it’s all up to you!
Up to four people may play it at the same time – plundering islands, sinking ships, collecting treasure and doing all kinds of piratey stuff!
