Rome Wasn't Built In A Day

This is the 2nd update on the Lego Empire. It is coming along very slowly, as both me and my roommate have busy lives outside of Legos (unfortunately) and have a hard time getting motivated in our free time. I have been working on Praelatus little by little. 

So, there's not too much new to share, but I'll show you what I have. 

Here is an assortment of Lego containers where Prellen will hopefully one day be. I did tidy up the room a bit, so that's nice. 


Here is Dienaars, which Rob is building. I'm not sure what all the big rooms are for.




Next, we have some nice pictures of the Otrok and the Cara people. I don't think I've done much with them since last time, but there's still nice to look at. 

Here is a blacksmith in the black building, four soldiers standing in the barracks, and a bunch of the Cara/Otrok regional hats lying on the ground for when I make more people. 


Classy pic of a soldier watching over the mines.


Two Otrok miners having a work break conversation.


Two Cara miners taking a break.


A Cara citizen who travels on this Gungan creature out to the desert to collect sand and oil.


Four women standing outside the Cara school. The woman on the left wearing the orange plate hat is the head teacher for the school.


This is in Gioco, where I have done very little. This is the Merus Ambassador and his royal guard.


Finally, we have Praelatus, the crowning achievement of this Lego Empire, although Rob would try to claim it's the Carcotans. He doesn't have any of Carcota built, so I guess we'll have to wait and see. 

This is basically what it looks like looking at the whole thing. It's better in person.


This is the Upper District. For some reason, I don't have a picture of it with the two added things. If you look closely at the picture above, you can see that there is a gray building and a tall weird building. Those are the library and the chicken garage for people to park their chickens. Also, there is the Lord Regent's chicken outside of his house and his daughter's horse is there, too.


This is the port of Praelatus.


 Ah, the stairs. These stairs lead from Mid City next to the police station up to the Upper District.



Barracks for the army.


Here is the Water Front, where philosophers and fisherman live in shanties.


 Here are some pictures of the Lower City. At the edge of this part of the city is the forest. This first picture has the builders (in the yellow house), the clothing maker (in the white outfit) and a merchant (in the blue outfit).


There are three lumberjacks standing in front of their shanty, with a pile of wood planks next to it. The two armed men are mercenaries who can be rented out for protection when leaving the city to go into the dangerous wilderness.


Here is the stable, where you can rent horses to ride into the wilderness. There are also two more mercenaries, which can be rented out to go with you.


This is a carriage that you can rent to travel to the other cities.


A close-up of the ships.


This is the restaurant for the lower portions of the city. It is located in Mid City, right next to the stairs to the Upper District.


This is the schoolhouse, right across from the restaurant.


And finally, here are the farmers tending the chickens. There will be more animals as well as crops, but the chickens are all that is made right now.


That's all for now, folks!
