I have a question. If the red pirate theme mini-figs are Imperial Guards, and
have the flagships and trading ports and all that, why do the blue Soldiers
also have a ship? And why do the soldiers have a "brig"? Isn't that a nautical
term? Wouldn't they be land troops, and just (nautically speaking) cargo for
the Guards? Is there some way to make it work logically, or was Lego just
(heaven forbid) careless?

I consider them American since they have blue coats and look (...) (24 years ago, 18-Aug-00, to lugnet.pirates)
