  Re: LEGO Rulers 4 Pirate Game
 
(...) LOL. Yards -- that's good. I'll have to try that at a game. Do most people use LEGO rulers or real rulers for the game? ~Clangador (20 years ago, 20-Apr-04, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: LEGO Rulers 4 Pirate Game
 
(...) I'm not looking for any specific outcome. Thinking about it, it might be cool to use LEGO to measure ranges and such. I measured a 2x4 last night and it was 1 1/4 inches, so it's not that far off. I just wanted to know what the deal with them (...) (20 years ago, 20-Apr-04, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) 4 studs = 1-1/4" 1 stud = 5/16" 3 studs = 15/16" If you want to go for a more accurate scale, use 2x3's instead of 2x4's. Just make sure everyone at the table is using the same scale, so it'll be fair (my unit may only get to move one unit per (...) (20 years ago, 20-Apr-04, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: LEGO Rulers 4 Pirate Game
 
(...) It says nothing about a lot of other things that every GM I've ever played under does, too. Using LEGO rulers adds to the charm of the game, in my view. I guess I'm not sure what outcome you want, exactly. (...) Pretty close. (20 years ago, 20-Apr-04, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: LEGO Rulers 4 Pirate Game
 
(...) Everything else in the game is made out of LEGO. It's not really a matter of "appeal". one "inch" is *by definition* 4 studs.

(...) So, what is the appeal other than it's LEGO? Or is that the appeal? ~Clang (20 years ago, 18-Apr-04, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) The game uses inches for things like range, distance, etc. 4 studs = 1 "inch" more or less... Declared to be exactly equal because that makes it more fun... So you make up a "stick" of 2x4 bricks in alternating colors (using plates on top and (...) (20 years ago, 18-Apr-04, to lugnet.pirates)

Can someone explain the whole LEGO ruler for The Pirate Game thing to me? ~Clang (20 years ago, 18-Apr-04, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Vault shots from lowlug.nl
 
(...) SNIP (...) First: welcome at Lowlug! THE discussion forum in the Netherlands. Now for the pics: lots of these are mine. So I think I should shed some light on them. A few weeks ago Legoland Billund had it's season-opening, and a group of Dutch (...) (20 years ago, 16-Apr-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.town, lugnet.trains)

"Bryan Kinkel" <helpdesk@loseyourmind.com> wrote in message news:Hw9K6J.4G6@lugnet.com... (...) The pictures of the shelves and shelves of LEGO boxes are definitely their vault. Steve Barile showed similar pictures after a visit to LEGO HQ. Frank (20 years ago, 16-Apr-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.town, lugnet.trains)
