It says what your aloud and what not aloud on page 1.
You can edit out junk in the back ground, and you cant make more men or castles, and you can't use somthing detailed for the background.

Yes, i guess i should have put that better. Removing background stuff....nothing wrong with that.

Red Bricks for blood!

Hey, everything sounds good, except maybe the part about using firearms. This is about LEGO Castle armies, isn't it?

I think lazers and blasters should be omitted...should be very few cannons and muskets.

There was a nitch in time where field armor, swords, and firearms existed on the same battle field...so i think it's ok.

Ninja and samuria were medieval. people think just Europe had knights in the middle ages.

As I said. FEW firearms. I really don't se the purpse of this being a "castle" batle contest if we're goign to include a bunch of rifles and muskets. But for those of you who will be entering with PIRATES I will alow firearms.




Rule update. Please read.

1) You may use custom armies. Such as stickers and custom weapons.

2) You may NOT use firearms unless entering with pirates.

3) Entries have to be posted by Feb 20( is that enough time Jpinoy? 2005, 11:59 PM Eastern Time.

4) You may have two entries per catagory. That gives you a chance for 8 entries.


5) When you enter for weight class small(20 troops) This means ten in each army. Ten men In the castle(If a castle is in your battle) and ten besiegers. Or 3 on one and 7 on the other. The armies do NOT have to be equall

6) another thing is if Ninjas can be used.

7) Say you have 25 men on one army and 25 on the other. Since this is 50 men and 50 is closer to 80 than you will enter into medium class. Same rules apply if you have 15 and 15. You will be entered into the small class.



9) If you do not comply to the rules above you will be disqualified from the contest.

Nope, besides... Feb. is the month I restart working on my Military Theme again. Meaning I'll be cutting back on Ancients supplies and focus more on parts for stuff like the Mi-24 Hind attack helicopter and etc.

Plus, I still have parts collecting to do with my Ancients armies for now. Not to mention building a mighty city-state.

I have an entry... I just can't figure out how to upload the pics onto my dad's computer (my computer is not well).
