    Merchant Ship —Ben Ellermann
   I made instructions for my "Merchant Ship" set and posted them on brickshelf: (URL) uses center hull base from a large pirate ship as the entire hull. I originally came up with a similar design in 1990 with my "Carribean Clipper" set. The aft of the (...) (22 years ago, 17-Sep-02, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.pirates)
   
        Re: Merchant Ship —Bruce Hietbrink
     (...) Of course, if they don't have an cannons they'll be easy pickings for all of those Lego pirates sailing around the seas (with only a much smaller contingent of Imperials to keep them in line).

Or perhaps a series of small ships ($20-$25) - (100-150 peices; my ship has 109 peices) using the hull plate. Castle ships, pirate ships, ninja ships, explorer (...)

        Re: Merchant Ship —Sean Devolites
   (...) I agree with the cannon part. What fun would it be if every ship had some sort of defense? There'd be no realistic way to board and plunder without getting half the men killed. Anyways, I can't wait until that day far in the future when you (...) (22 years ago, 18-Sep-02, to lugnet.pirates)
