180 unique items?! Holy crapoly!

Or as my S.O. says, Holy Cats! (don't ask)

 D

Hey! I can only see Snee Kee Peet in one of the photos, but I see The Sword Swingin' Elf What Has Baggy Pants (my hero!) in two of 'em.

Now, is that because Peet's so good at hiding, or is it because *gasp!* He's just not there? Hmmm....!

 D

(ps, Elf still gets my mascot vote... or maybe it's just his +5 charisma pants)

Hi Everyone,

I am back after a seeming eternity spent doing last-minute touch ups. I've barely had a chance to read this thread but I see lots of feedback, thank you! Over the next day or two I will be responding to all I can and starting a new Release Party thread.

The final files are being compressed...I am sorry it took so long but this project grew considerably from its initial conception.

Hey Great news!  I can't wait for the releast party thread to kick in.

Looking forward to the new set!  180 items... whoa... can't wait!

Ok, I've read the thread and here goes.

Trees: The result of MUCH experimentation.  There are two kinds of palms, the smaller one is a super easy build and looks cool. I really wanted to include non-palm trees...no time. I do have designs, though.

IW: No IW. I thought of realeasing a cave and dungeon set, but CaveWorks and Gothic Realms offer so much more than what I could "tack on".

Aztec Stuff: Yes, there is quite a bit of Aztec motif stuff, in that kind of greenish rock texture. It was fun to make and I'd like to do more.

GunsGunsGuns: Yes I have upped the "tech level" a tad with 32-Pounders and Carronades. There's also a small Swivel Gunne that fits the boats or by itself. I went for a late 1700's feel.

Fort: I may include a few more pieces for the inevitable booster pack, I really wanted to have some kind of building.

Boats: Yeah, they are 2 inches wide. This does make them a bit out of scale but better for minis. They are clinker built longboats, one with a transom-style stern.  Based on ships' boats in the RN, 1800s.

Pirate Village: I'd love to do this.

PHB 1ed: The big statue!! Aieee!!! My very first D+D book was this, I still have it [very, very battered] I propped it up on the monitor for inspiration.

Wood Dowels: A good idea but I've left it an option. You could easily modify the sails to fit on dowels.

Pirate Lego: This was something that I tired not to let influence me too much. Besides, I always bought the kids Space Lego!!

Thats it for now.

Sounds like you went all out on this one, Pall.  AND there will be expansion sets?  Sweeeeeet.  :)
My 50 Fathoms game starts in 2 weeks so your timing couldn't be better.  When do you expect to have it up on RPGNow?

Hey now, don't be ripping on pirate legos.  I'm 27, and I'd probably still be buying them if they still carried the line.

A whole he** of a lot easier than the wood models I build now, lol....

Just saw the SeaWorks 'video' and launch announcement, looks even BETTER than I thought it would.

I'm going to go out and buy Savage Worlds and 50 Fathoms JUST BECAUSE of this set!  

Wow.  Paul Sr. is a HUGE addition to the team Denny...

Hey, what music is that on the demo video?  Great 'Pirate theme'!  

See you in24-48 hours...

I summon my mighty card of purchasing!

Wait a sec.  Just got through watching my tape of saturday cartoons.  Yu-gi-oh influence in that statement.

Oh well.  It gets the point across I guess.

Will be one of the first buyers on RPGnow.

Oh yeah.  TREES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AND MORE TO COME!!!!!!!  YEEEHAAA!!!!!!!!

Added:

Oh yeah, one more thing.  I've tried those plastic models with the foliage bags and they just fall apart too easily.  I'm certain that these will be WAY more sturdy!!!

Just saw the TMP posts and had to jump over and check it out. Very nice! Great  video. The pictures look even better than I thought they would. I especially like the tenticle attacking the boat. Nice touch! I'll definitley be picking up this set and I don't even have figs or games to play with it....yet. Nice job guys!

Aiigh! The Tentacle! What a great pic, with the Tentacle tucked in the bottom corner. I almost couldn't figure out what the heck was on that boat... "huh, what wierd oars..."

Another awesome set, Paul! Can't wait for RPGNow to get it up and running.

The third picture in the trailer, with the island appearing out of the mist: how much of that rugged island profile is actually cliffs made with the SW set, and how much is CGI? If the only CGI is the mist, water, and sky - wow!

Oh, and someone asked about the trailer music; I think it's one of the Holst "Planets" cycle, but I can't quite peg it. Not Mars, that's the one they almost used for the first Star Wars. Hmm...

 D

Bang on on the Holst. It's the Uranus theme. Thought of Mars but it's been so done to death.

Huge props to Denny for finishing the video for me!!!! I'm still amazed. Great job.

BTW, the actual item count is 197. When my brain cools I'll be  sorting through the out-takes for a booster pack.

Couldn't just get off your lazy butt and round it up to an even 200, could ya?

Just kidding, great job, Paul! I'm *so* looking forward to the Maiden of the Sea.

First off! Absolutely beautiful job on the art. I found the individual PDFs to be a bit confusing, but I managed to get through them. I did find out that my version of the download from RPG.Now is missing the Skull Mountain pieces. Any chance of getting that... and how do I go about it?

:-/

We were just discussing the goofy irony of the missing skull on another thread...We've made it a free download at: http://www.worldworksgames.com/seaworksone.html just click the "sample- Get Here" button on the top left side

Thanks Denny. I gotta say... you guys rock! I have never seen the caliber of great artwork from anywhere else! Keep up the excellent work!

;D

Fun rummaging around in the folders though, isn't it?

The Auld Grump, still no time, ran my game today (playtesting my summer event...) but no time to assemble much of anything yet. (I will need to assemble the docks, piers, and wharfs for next game, they just reached the underground area. )

Very nice job once again, Worldworkers!  I just finished assembling the little Jolly with a square sail, and it looks fantastic!  My wife can't believe the same crew that gave me all my "spooky dungeon stuff" also manufactured "that cute little blue boat"!  I just can't wait for the Maiden now!!
