PS, why are people bothering to participate if they are just choosing all 6 options? That doesn't contribute any useful data at all. :? Maybe you should edit it so that you can choose a max of 5 options? I like stats, so that's just my two cents worth. How is that data not useful? Yes, it would mea...

Re: Which helmet would you use in battle?

I've just saw this thread, very interesting BTW :) In battle, I think I would wear a islamic styled helmet, such as this: http://art.thewalters.org/detail/14181/helmet-with-neck-guard-of-mail-and-nose-guard/ I gives a relativly good protection with good visibility. And it also has a very nice desig...

Re: History vs fiction vs you, mundane vs fantastic

Honestly, all six apply to my building. Recently I've been working on my own fantastical and mundane with influences from both historical and fictional. It's hard for my to pinpoint a single option. I voted for all six as well. I've been building a lot for my own realm, including both the fantastic...

Re: Dear Lego: Reverse Quivers

While great for variety, I feel like having reverse quivers would bother me just as much as flags that fold in opposite of other flags (poor description, but by comparing a new flag vs. an old flag's folds, the difference is clear). In addition, it doesn't seem like there would be any more incentive...

Re: !5 Century Gothic Plate armor

Really neat, and accurate too.

I too am wondering this. Also, how connected are the parts of armor? Are they able to come off easily, or are a lot of them connected to one another?

Re: Your dream castle line

I'd want a completely peasant based line. For the sake of convenience I guess it could be called "Villages", and would have a set in each one of the tears. Maybe a farm with a small field and a house could be the big set, the next biggest could be a fletcher's house or a blacksmith (but we...

Re: 6078-X - Return to the Royal Drawbridge

I really love the bley and black color scheme, and you pulled it off extremely well.

The faithful representation of the set, yet in a new and exciting way, is beyond amazing. Great job! :)
