Lands of Classic Castle - Discussion Thread

[mencot]

DC is already starting to plant the seed of competition over at GoH....

He says,
"...the wheels have started turning on what could turn out to be the biggest epic castle battle compettition the Internet has ever seen, where all four guilds may have to join forces against someone else Who knows what will happen..."

Oh yeah, it's on like Donkey Kong.

This will be awesome, My EB Nocturnus guys vs MY CC Green guys, I foresee some nice battle MOCS coming out of this!!

Edit: Actually now that I think about it and saw this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ak_brickst ... otostream/ I should probbaly join the Blue/Yellow group, Otherwise I will be fighting my EB Nocturnus Dragon guys with my CC Green Dragon guys... I have a few crownies and falcons so that is a more logical group to build in...

Has there been an "official" declaration of group colours/regions?

Intrastella aka Dr Rod on EB.

Welcome to LCC Intrastella.
I don't think there have been anyway "official" yet, or what does Mark or Ak say. But it wasn't ment too be too restricted, altough this is between Lego classic factions, lions red, Falcons blue, crownies can be all i think you just change some colors on them, same goes for black knights blue or red. And dragon masters can be green and red etc. But we will have too se what kind of rules and guidelines there is going to be!

[Mark of Falworth]

Hey, Intrastella,

There will be four factions with four basic colors

Blue, Falcons Crownies.

Red, Lions Crusaders.

Green, Dragons Forestmen.

Black/other, Outlaws Rebels.

These are not official yet.
Lots of official details will be announced soon.

These are just guidelines, we are hoping for lots of creativity within factions.

What happened to the gold region? Is that now black, or did I miss something? My map was designed with four factions plus the black area. Let me know if I have to adjust the map in any way. Thanks!

Since it's just up for drafts so far, I don't think that's much of a problem. But here's the deal, as Wobnam announced in the original Map Draft Thread, and as was added to the main post:

Updated map draft rules:
- 4 factions:
- - Blue: Snow/Mountains
- - Green: Forests/Foothills
- - Red: Grasslands/Desert
- - Gold: Outlaws/rebels. For this faction we need an island and a swampy valley/canyon.
- All factions should share a land border with at least one of the others.
- All factions should have access to the sea.
- Deadline: End of Saturday.

Right, and that was what I went off of, but in Mark's post above the rebels are now black, and gold seems to have disappeared. Just wondering if I need to adjust the colors on the map?

[wobnam]

What started out as Gold is now Black. Faction details are coming soon.

Shmails, no need to update your map yet. I hope to send you an updated version tonight, and then we can take it from there.

Thanks for the clarification. I did do another version which I posted in the map making thread. I think it has most of your requests incorporated now.

Since there have recently seemed to be a bit of confusion between members and non-members of the "commity", I have a suggestion to avoid further misunderstandings (in this case, it was mostly about the colours and number of factions) of that kind: In my opinion, we should have an "Official LCC Announcements" (or whatever you want to call it) thread, where only commity members are supposed to post. There, they could add all new information (unless it's so large updates that they deserve their own thread), so that important and/or useful information won't get lost in pages of general discussion and suggestions.

[wobnam]

We are creating a thread like that AV, we just have to get all the pieces to fit before we show you the puzzle

Very nice! They may present a challeng to my men

[AK_Brickster]

Looking good! I am very excited that we're going to be releasing the general info for the factions soon. I think Teherean will probably post it with his Lore Submissions thread in the next day or two

[mencot]

Great looking small warriors
I will have to get of this sofa and make some of my ideas real myself

[Owen S.]

Wonderful warriors! They look pretty threatening.

Gentlemen and gentleladies...I interrupt for a brief message...

I come here as a Mod to ask for some understanding in modding your LCC.

I try very hard to keep up with your posts here in the LCC and moderate them...which is rather difficult since the threads about the LCC are so rapidly posted upon.

But I would ask, ever so nicely, if you all could remember some basic rules so that modding can happen in a timely fashion.

1) Please do not take a thread off topic. For it will be locked and that of course will cause many people to be upset. And no one wants anyone upset.
2) Please remember if you are having issues with something, to go to private messages to clear things up.
3) If you need help from the staff, please pm one of us. Or see me in chat any evening.

Which by the way, a special LCC chat room has been set up for you if you are ever in the need.

Now back to your LCC...
