Consi and Bricktainia Tie in International Friendly

2010-07-14T14:44:00.001-04:00

On a rainy day in Resiburg, Consi tied Bricktania 2 - 2 after coming off a win from the Brikjian Cup final. What started as an even game was broken when Bricktanian striker Fredrick Carmicheal headed the ball to the back of the net in the 15th minute. Consian striker Alexander Greco found a crack in the Brickitanian defense and scored in the 27th minute. After halftime in the 51st minute, a Bricktanian player was yellow carded, awarding Consi a free kick. Consian Striker David Cedia kicked the ball to Sebastian Gomez (Midfielder) who headed it in. Michael Lewis scored again for Bricktania in the 71st minute with a beautiful upper 90 shot from 10 meters outside the box. The game went scoreless from then until the end of the match.

"It was a good game," said Consian midfielder Andre Goodman, "both teams were evenly matched. We tried our best, and they tried theirs. There are certainly things we have to improve on, but I'm happy with our performance today. A tie coming off of the Brikjian Cup is fine by me."

From Bricktainian reporters after the game, Fredrick Carmicheal was interviewed. He said "Well, frankly I think the game went very well, I mean Consi is a very good team, and I'm quite suprised that we managed to tie with them, as this is our first season together."

Success!

LN Lunar Exploration Rover in Space!

2010-06-04T13:50:00.002-04:00

In the past week or so, Stud-i-o and Bricktainia have conversed about a Lunar Rover. Stud-i-o actually already had a Lunar Rover, so all that was needed was a rocket to get it to the moon. On Thursday, the 3rd the Rover was sent to Bricktainia to be preped for take off on Friday. Once it was finished, the rocket blasted off at high noon. Only being to hours after liftoff, and it takes 3 days to get to the moon, the LN will have the first images from space. Once the images are taken, it will find the optimum location to land a crew to put down a runway, and the best place for the runway, which will be used in future years.

Stay tuned as the first images from the Stud-i-oan Rover's full color camera come in!

Breaking News: 4 Islands Discovered!

2010-03-16T17:02:00.000-04:00

Yesterday at 3pm Local time, a military patrol boat discovered a small island chain of 4 islands, Heading Southwest from the Island Of Taiyo Shima. For the while that we have been patroling those waters, the men on the boats thought that those were claimed by someone already, being by the US, France, UK, or whoever, though there were only trees, and a plain area on one of them. Earlier today at Noon Local time, the Secretary of Agriculture and Cheif of Staff of Bricktainia went to each of the islands, to put a ceremonial Bricktainian flag on each of the islands, thus claiming them in the name of Bricktainia. Later at about 3pm Local time, a the 2nd Infantry brigade with explore the islands with transportation from the military Sea Corps. The island with the large plain area, and the closest to Bricktainia, will most likely be assigned the roll of an agriculture-based island, though the use of the others is undecided. A map of the new territories will likely surface later today, or tomorrow, along with the names likey tomorrow or later this week.

Breaking News: Chilean Earthquake Rocks Bricktainia

2010-02-28T16:32:00.000-05:00

Just yesterday morning, as almost everyone knows, a massive 8.8 magnitude shook Chile, and the Pacific. Along with Hawaii, we turned on our sirens at 11:45 am EST, waiting for the worst. We had announced a state of emergency and advised for eveyone to head to high ground. At 1:02 pm, the first of 4 moderate Tsunamis struck the Southeastern coast of Bricktainia. No major damage but the water did get about 400 yards onto the coast flooding Port Bricktia with only 5-9 inches of water. No property or buildings were flooded, and we had survived the first round. The three others were worse and went in a good 800 yards into the southern coast. Port Bricktia had gotten a total of 16 inches and Studlanta 2 in the southern parts. Amazingly, Taiyo Shima only had 6-10 inches of flood water throughout all 4 tsunamis. Thankfully, no lives were taken in the tsunamis, though 5 were injured. The Lake Ellis area got 1 inch of flood water, However the worst was Southeast of Patch lake with 26 inches, though it's quite good that that is the least populated area of Bricktainia. Some assistance on rebuilding would be appreciated near Port Bricktia. The flood gates in the area have been released and the most standing water in all of Bricktainia is 15 inches, on the southeastern side of Patch Lake.

Presidents' Day in Bricktainia

2010-02-15T13:26:00.000-05:00

Yes, Presidents' Day is held in Bricktainia, but it's more of a day for the current president, than past ones. Really, all the civillians have to do is go out into the streets and yell and scream and be happy at the main event, the presidental parade. Here are some pictures of the parade.

Can you spot all the security troops? Actually, Task force 18 came home to do some Security work.

Hey, there's one on the roof of the bank.

And another on the roof of the Skate shop.

Also one on the Theater roof.

... And one on the roof of the Gas Station. There's another one, can you spot it in the picture of all of Studlanta above?

Police Escort

The crowds.

More crowds.

Even More Crowds

A quick question for anyone, do you like the flag looking like this:

Or how it looked in my previous post?

History of Bricktainia

2009-09-25T21:47:00.000-04:00

So yes. I've finally been able to devise a history of Bricktainia and make a good flag.

So, here's the history:

1941: A partial Imperial Army squad landed on the remote Island and easily took it over. From there, they built up the island with a small town and a port.

1946: 4 squads of Marines land on the island and falsely called back to the states and got 2 bomber squadrons to eliminate the inhabitants of the island. The islanders tried to negotiate with the Marines and call off the bomber squadron and they fortunately succeeded. The bomber squadron then landed on a nearby aircraft carrier with a good number of planes in the water so they took in the bomber squads. They then negotiated with the Japanese and sent to the U.S. where they can live better lives than surviving on boiled fish and beans from the plants on the island.

1948: The U.S. made, what is now Bricktainia, a territory of the U.S.

1954: The first Cold war threats come in from the USSR come in and the US uses the island to develop nuclear weapons.

1958- 1962 12 USSR Vehicles (subs, bombers, ships) were destroyed and the island was nicknamed “Hawaii’s Savior” as USSR Bombers were heading straight for Hawaii and defensive missiles were fired at the planes, thus saving Hawaii.

1981: 2 nuclear bombs explode due to faulty wiring and something about a double agent. The entire city is ruined and the U.S. removes the island from ownership due to all humanity terminated from the city and surroundings.

1991: Ten years after the terrible day of infamy, the first North and South American settlers return to the island to inspect what had happened and see if anything is salvageable.

1993: The Island was cleaned up, buildings built, area-native animals were taken to the island, and trees replanted. So really, the island was restored and able for life.

1997: The Panamanian military attempts to take the island for their own keeping but the island is helped by an old ally and the island is taken back over and it is independently run and is officially called Bricktainia though it was called that since day one.

1998: All paper work is squared away and Bricktainia was officially its own nation.

2003: On the 5 anniversary of Bricktainia, it joined the Lego Nations and is still to today a proud ally of many, including Tabletown.

2008: Tabletown became an ally of Bricktainia and the Bricktainian Police HQ was complete.

2009: Bricktainia became an allies with Consi, Legoton, Stud-i-o, and Legotia and the first of the Bricktainian Military was organized.

Brickfilm- Time Well Wasted

2009-09-13T10:14:00.000-04:00

I had an idea for a video this week and since so many people were subscribing to me on Youtube, I decided to gift them! It's about a Bricktainian Special Operations soldier wonders through the base, quite confused! Anyways, here's "Time Well Wasted".

iMPaCt Finished!

2009-09-13T00:58:00.000-04:00

The Multi-Purpose Cannon was the MPAC but I removed the Artillery term from the abbreviation to eliminate some confusion. The Bricktainian soldiers call it the iMPaCt, in which consists of the initials and also fits it, since it's a cannon. The mechanic is a modified G.I. with yellow arms and hands, a different head, added a wrench to the pack, and gave him a Brickarms M23. Photography advice from the Ranger of Awesomeness.

Welcome to the Bank of Bricktainia

2009-08-24T19:24:00.000-04:00

I've been looking over my town and I thought that the green building is knida useless so I modified it into a Bank which I simply call the Bank of Bricktainia.

Now the only different thing on the outside is a new sign and a flag.

On the inside though, it's drastically changed.

A little table where you can fill in a slip so it will be easier on the banker to file the money into who's account and what part like saving, checking, etc.

A view of the office from the side.

A view from the customer's view, not from behind the counter.

The waiting area for people wanting to take out loans and such.

The decal I'll use for the bank worker with dark tan or black legs. I can't quite decide.

New Bricktainian Helicopter

2009-08-23T17:52:00.000-04:00

After the earlier attacks on the Bricktainian capital and war was declared between Megablok Land and the AMA (Anti-Megablok Alliance which consists of Bricktainia, Legoton and Stud-i-o) the need for a flying assult vehicle had arised. After revisiting some set-aside unfinished, designs, the Bricktainian Assutlt Heli was created. In my opinion, the top of the cockpit is kinda boxy, though the rest is exceptional.

I started this model some time ago and then the lego people switched which bricks and... what not like that. If you know which piece that is, please tell me!

Giant Robot: Downed!

2009-08-19T20:47:00.000-04:00

On the same day of the robot attacks, after the emergency radio network crashed, a brave soldier climed onto the robot, ripped the artificial intelligence off the back of it, thus giving it no... anything. Then the giant robot fell to the ground with a mighty thud. Then, the head was burnt off of it, and is now in the imaginary Bricktainian history museum. The rest of the robot was completely cremated. A news cameraman captured the footage of it where it will now be archived Then the ashes were buried in front of the police department's fire hydrant, where the police dog...well... The brave soldier that had ripped the artificial intelligence off was later promoted and is to be a recruit for the Bricktainian Special Operations team.

2009-08-13T20:09:00.000-04:00

After some hours sitting in front of the computer, The crown jewel of the Bricktainian Military is completed.The turret is a modified M5 Gunner position and the main body was 100% me-made. Though it's quite expensive being almost $70, the price is quite to scale to life size tanks! I'm still looking for a cool name for it. Suggestions are welcome. The pics: now finally the right size.

M5 Light Support Vehicle

2009-08-07T22:26:00.000-04:00

Thanks to Fixbayonet's for giving me some good instructions, I made this and edited it enough that it looked like a completely different vehicle. This is what I edited on it: I SNOTted it over and added small things like the gun mount rack on the back section, headlights, and used a droid arm to attach the windshield. I also added a Hitch so it can tow the 105mm field gun. The field gun is also FixBayonet's! design but I SNOTted it also and added one more round brick on the main cannon part. When I edited it, I added some of my Army's GI backpacks,I also added some details on the side, a spare tire on the back, a grille,an antenna, places to hold weapons such as Brickarms MK48's, M4's or MGLs, and modified the sides where the figs can get in easier. I also added plates that are built into the vehicle that act as brake lights.

Yes, it's very different so that's why I called ith the M5.

Bricktainian Pesidential Air Transport

2009-08-07T22:18:00.000-04:00

Another creation made last week. This was inspired when I saw something similar (thanks ~VBBN~) and reilized that Brictainia Needed a Transport for the Pres. to go to other countries for allience meetings or treaty signings and stuff like that. The reason why I put propellors on the plane is because I simply like the old-school propellor planes. A good over-all picture.

Bricktainian Infantry Initialization

2009-08-07T21:58:00.000-04:00

This was made last week but, I didn't have the blog then. I will catch up on the other MOCs posted before my blog tonight. Anyway, the first squad of the Infantry was made with one Brickarms order, one Bricklink order, and one LDD order. I'll probably make another group of orders later some time later this year. Here is a good pic.

The rest can be seen on my MOCpages, here. http://mocpages.com/moc.php/140569
