I've been thinking and maybe I could contribute a 32x32. What is the setup for it? I have a little 32x32 Castle MOC already in progress, so I'd like to see if it can fit in.

Hey guys, Does anyone know who the Castle coordinator of BrickFair VA 2014 is? I wanted to contact him/her about using some of these cards I made: Let me know soon. Thanks, ~RBC

Yes they are! A custom one-by-eight brick with LoR-and the individual faction of each person in the faction's colors for each of us, plus two each of Garheim and Loreos, in case anyone from those factions shows up. AK told me you and Schmidt should do the tying-in for the collab with the global storyline, as you're both on the KC, and you're part of the collab, so it would be easier for you two to do it. Also, if you didn't see my earlier post, I'd like WIP photos to be posted every so often, so I can tally up what's been completed, and what hasn't. Cheers, Joshua Very cool! We should have all factions represented I believe. It's a shame Mark and Steven probably won't go this year. They were a pretty big crowd pleaser last year. I really want to see what the Apoca/BroLUG guys are bringing this year. They always have some of the coolest displays. Anyway... I'll talk with Schmidt and the rest of the KC as we get closer to August about the general storyline we should be following. So far everything seems to be moving along quite nicely! Can't wait to see some WIPs shots soon.

Check here - www.brickfair.com/volunteer/I think he has a Flickr but he hasn't uploaded anything. Check with the BF peeps to get his contact info would be my go to option.

Well this looks like it's gonna be awesome! Sadly, the "Giant Ericksons" won't be able to make it to BFVA this year. If we had more time and money we would totally collab with you guys. Take lots of pictures and videos! We don't want to miss seeing it!

I hear Stuartt (Aeridian) probably won't come either. I'm disappointed I didn't get to meet him last year. Plus more Outlaws would always be welcomed

Plus more Outlaws would always be welcomed I will be there this year, but only as a mysterious casual observer lurking in the shadows in true outlaw fashion! -Drakk

Progress on the castle is going slowly, but it's coming along. I'll try to post some WIP photos sometime soon. ALL: I need you to post photos of completed modules, and siege engines, so I can add up what we've got, that way I'll know when we have all the necessary modules, and siege equipment. Cheers,Joshua

Sir Haymar GlenWhat is the standard? Is it just a 32x32 with no raised platform? Schmidt And this, what's the terrain going to be like?

Schmidt Gavin of Lockwood: There's a photo on my Flickr stream of what the terrain should look like , only it should undulate a little more in spots. I'd put a link here, but for some reason it won't let me. High General Mythrog will be posting the example swamp module soon, and I have a drawing of the entire swamp that also needs to be posted. We'll try to do both this coming week. Just a reminder, when you can, please post photos of completed modules, so I know when we've reached the 72 needed. Cheers, Joshua

Joshua,
Is that light tan or dark tan? I cannot tell by the photos (yes my eyes are that bad!) EDIT: I went back and read
I have started getting my Outlaw horde together, just so I can have a more formal count way ahead of time. Here is a portion of my army that I had bagged up.
And below is the first wave. These are just my Orcs/skellies/barbarians, that are led by a maniacal wizard named Harlow who serves the Queen. These guys come from the Badland swamps. There are approximately 184 of them in this photo.
These are just the ones I have had together. I have the torsos, legs, weapons, etc., to put together about 30 more if need be.
Those are the first section of my troops. The second section will consist of the Queen's militia, which I estimate will be at least 200, if not more. The reason I am estimating, is that I already had over 140 when I put them together last year. I now have enough for at least another 60.
The final section of my horde that I will be bringing to BF will be the Queen's soldiers and knights (2013 Castle dragons). I honestly have no idea how many of these guys I have now, since I acquired 25 more on eBay a few weeks ago. They are a long overdue for a count.
And for the record, I will have modules built to cover all my troops, but I have no idea how many modules I will need at the moment. I am slowly piecing this altogether, so I can give a better estimate. I want to say at least 10 modules for me, but don't take that to heart just yet. It may be more, or it may be less. I'll know more as it gets closer.
To be perfectly honest, I really don't want to pack all of these guys if they are not needed (since I will have a couple of MOC's of my own there to worry about), so once we find out who all is for certain going, how many troops they have, we can figure out how many of mine need to come.
I've got a lot of troops for the other three factions as well if they are needed.

Schmidt: Looks great! What awesome arrow fodder for my Scout Snipers you've got there! I'm reasonably sure you won't have to bring all your troops, we've got quite a few too. I'll have to do a head count soon, see how many Queens goons we've all got. The other three faction armies you've got probably won't be needed. Zach Bean:I almost forgot, even though you're not contributing, bring Boethius with you, so we can take a group photo, like we did last year. Cheers, Joshua
