LCC - Border trilogy

Post by Disco86 »

Hi, to tell the story around the Lenfald Local Challenge I have created three slightly different MOCs. It was great fun building on this project. I hope you like it.

Fortify Lenfald

Things have changed after our visit to the Magic Islands. The Loreos felt betrayed, because they lost so many man, and they were missing the support from other factions. But actually we ourselfs had a lot of losses and the whole attack against the magicians was a fail. Wasn't it the idea of these snotty Loreos to hit on the magicians ?

Because of this diplomatic circumstances the High Lord Triphian started thinking suspiciously about the future of the peace pacts in Roawia. Armoured conflicts are rising up at the horizon. So the High Lord commanded all his faithful fellows to fortify Lenfald !

Paul von Brickenstein recieved this order and sattled his horse instantaneously. There is a small part of land between Ferncroft and Durrough, that needs to be fortified. The former nobleman of this are unfortunately died at the Magic Islands, so it is up to Paul von Brickenstein to fulfill his duty.

He first needs to visit the border, getting some information about the landscape. Arriving in the area, he sees a farm right at the border. The position is tatctically important and the building looks solid enough to build a barrack out of it. Handing over the writ to the old farmer, the building was seized. But for sure the farmer, his son and especially his beautiful daughter can settle down in the Lands of Brickenstein.

Image

After hiring some workers in the near town the Fortification begins. Paul von Brickenstein and his architect have made great plans. The old farm house needs to be rebuild with stone bricks and a watchtower. The stable looks perfect to shelter horses but it is really rotten. And the street is just a puddle of mud. Some paving is necessary to stand the pressure of marching troops.

Image

Finally the barrack was finished in time, now it is time to prepare for battle. The Brickenstein army moved to the border, reinforced by young man from the nearby villages. Paul von Brickenstein puts the troops on standby for new orders. What will be the next step ? Attacking ? Defending ? Or just moving back home...

Wonderful trilogy, the changes are excellent and not too drastic, the whole style of the trio is clean yet well detailed.
Very well cone :)

Some really nice builds and transformations. The barn and the path in particular are really well done but still show progress :)

Great building style and I love the idea of fortifying a normal building.
