Blame the derail on me, Zahru. My bad!

Meh, it happens.

Btw I've just made some schematics for moar ships (with pen and paper, fuck LDD!). I'm going to do some mock-up builds tomorrow (they'll be all rainbow-y but I don't care, I only want to find out if they work in real life).

Nevertheless, do you guys want pics of those?

Do you really have to ask?

Okay, so I cranked up some pirate metal and started building like a madman. Take note that these are just 'prototypes' and are a real eyesore.

Small ships:

From L to R: Imperial, Elven, and Orkish

Medium ships:

Imperial and Elven (or vice versa, not sure which suits which better)

And the ork capital ship aka Destroyer:

It's missing the oars from the sides.

But now you got a basic idea of what I'm up to.

Screw the oars, that looks pretty BAMF by its self. Looks like rows of cannons.

IronClads

I could have done better with more parts, but you go to sea with the parts you have not the parts you want.

There's a reason why Confederate sailors called Union ironclads "Yankee cheesebox on a raft."

FFFFFFFFFFFFF that's so ideal for a DWARF FLEET.

Thanks!

That title was first concieved by a union sailor.

Shouldn't have assumed. And it referred to the USS Monitor, as you probably know.

You're welcome

This needs more slope pieces.

A good smoke stack can be done with a peesaber handle or a technic pin.
But you will probably need putty.

Load them with minifigs and have a sea battle.
