Só um update: Entreguei hoje os papéis na FEUP para alugar uma sala de 25 m2; se tudo for como eu pedi na carta ao director, podemos ter acesso à Internet (alta velocidade) e aos computadores da faculdade, para fazermos o upload na brickshelf (...) (23 years ago, 5-Mar-02, to lugnet.loc.pt)

This is an awesome idea! In fact, I've begun the very same project a couple times, but never run it to completion. One feature that I wanted the most in my version, and would very much like to see in your version is integration with BrickLink. (...)

Hi, (...) I think that in this case, you should create another inventory derivated from the official, and name it with something like "8858 Rebel Wrecker Used" or "8858 Rebel Wrecker bought on ebay". The program might have something to distinct (...) (23 years ago, 1-Mar-02, to lugnet.loc.pt)

How about a feature to record what pieces are missing from a set? I have a few sets where the sets were either incomplete when I bought them (from garage sales or whatever) or because a part got damaged. (23 years ago, 1-Mar-02, to lugnet.loc.pt)

(...) Yes, you are right. I just read an e-mail sent by someone who knows about this, and there was a small explanation. According to that same e-mail, there isn't a single document where the shield is defined. Shameful for our legislators... so (...) (23 years ago, 25-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.loc.pt)

(...) but they are too small to draw any good conclusiona about their measurements. (...) It's a start. Unfortunately, the measurements are the important part for an accurate rendition of the shield. :-( Pedro (23 years ago, 25-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.loc.pt)

By The Way - Heraldry actually has nothing to do with dimensions or conventions of shields. Heraldry is a system using the written word to describe a visual representation of a crest or coat of arms (the identifying insignia, be it personal or (...)

Good thread. History, Lego, and war. :) Thanks, Magnus, for the advice about starting with a smaller number of troops. I've mentioned designing a new Castle display throughout the year, and had considered planning a possible wargame using whatever (...) (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.loc.pt)

Good points on realism. (...) Hope you ahve a great time! Starting out with not that many troops may be a good idea. In my experience a battle with two sides of 50 men each, can easily take as long as a game of monopoly. If one side is defending a (...) (23 years ago, 21-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.loc.pt)
