Just a follow up. Board game night tomorrow starting at 5:00 pm ish is a go. I’ve got several (non-LUG) people who RSVP’d but would be happy to add a few additional (LUG) people. Come if you want to. 😀
May 16, 2024 at 5:14 pm #58935TimModeratorI know this is a bit late notice but I’m available this Saturday evening (starting around 5:00 pm or so) if anyone is interested in a board game night at my place. Just let me know. Thank you!
May 12, 2024 at 11:54 am #58894TimModeratorIs there any other day/time I could add my item?
@jrosie Yes, if you want to bring it up to the Library earlier that week (Wednesday-Friday), the display case will be empty. Or you can bring it to my house (105 Apple Blossom Lane, Cranberry Twp) and I will take it on Saturday.
May 11, 2024 at 11:35 am #58888TimModeratorThe Librarian sent me the following message. Wanted to see if anyone was interested.
“Just wanted to check in to see if anyone from Steel City Lug would be available to help out with a Lego program on July 25th (in the evening 5:30-7:30ish) where the kids get to come in and build or work on a Lego project together etc.”
Let me know. I would like to respond by the end of this week. Thank you!
I’m just bumping this to see if anyone local to Cranberry is interested/available. @tbrown00 @tcsbgdady @greg @rcgrier3406 I’m probably missing a few more (sorry). I need reply to her early next week.
May 11, 2024 at 11:33 am #58887TimModerator@jrosie We’ll start setup around 9:45-10:00 am (Library officially opens at 10:00 am but we can usually get a librarian to let us in a bit early).
@tcsbgdady That castle looks huge. A fitting opponent/companion to Greg’s yellow castle.May 7, 2024 at 4:06 pm #58831TimModeratorI’ve now registered and paid for Brickfair VA (myself and Jacob this year). Looking forward to it!

April 25, 2024 at 6:55 pm #58756TimModeratorApril 23, 2024 at 12:49 pm #58726TimModeratorHere is the first version of the layout proposal. @greg your castle can be oriented either sideways (solid lines) or facing forward (dotted lines) whichever you prefer and think would be best. @tcsbgdady your mountain is located in the left side where you requested. I’m working on some forest and ruins that can fill in the back or on the right side.
Does anyone else have anything larger than one 32×32 baseplate? If not, everything else can be filled in among these three larger MOCs and then held together with the river/water.

Is anyone up for another Board Game Day on either Saturday, April 27 or Sunday, April 28? It looks like I am free both days (starting around 2:00 pm on Saturday and 1:00 pm on Sunday). If we have enough interest, I’m happy to host again. 🙂
April 19, 2024 at 4:59 pm #58697TimModeratorI am pulling out of bunch of mythical creatures as well to see if I can fit them in the display.
I assume we still want all the water somewhere.
Nice! And yes, give us all the water.
Also @willmcdine, the Up House will look great floating overtop the castle landscape!
April 17, 2024 at 3:46 pm #58678TimModeratorcan I build a small mountain?
Absolutely. I’ll put you in for that space. Thanks, Jim.
April 16, 2024 at 6:46 pm #58671TimModeratorWell done, Jonah!
April 15, 2024 at 4:33 pm #58666TimModeratorSharing your dreams of smoked meats, that is an impressive smoker. Our scout troop had one almost that big and it was awesome to use.
April 15, 2024 at 4:31 pm #58665TimModeratorVery tempting but I will have to pass on this. But thank you @bacon1986 for the lead!
April 12, 2024 at 3:47 pm #58637TimModeratorJust FYI, we’re targeting Saturday, June 1 for installation.
April 12, 2024 at 3:46 pm #58636TimModeratorFor $2,000, that looks like a pretty good deal if all of those modular sets are complete. And even if not absolutely complete, that is a lot of bricks for the cost.
April 12, 2024 at 3:44 pm #58635TimModeratorNo worries, Megen. There will be plenty of other games days. 🙂
April 11, 2024 at 3:43 pm #58628TimModeratorWho all ended up being there? Leading up to the day, it looked like it was just going to be you, Mitch, and Hacim.
Me, Mitch, Micah, Jacob (my son), Dan, and Jen. Not sure about April 27 yet. If that remains free, I’m all up for doing another game day. We’ll see how things go.
Looking forward to it. Still 1pm start time?
I’m bring a new game I think you might really like Tim. Called Life of the Amazonia if anyone wants to look it up.
Will also bring Quacks and probably some others, feel free to request.
Yes, anytime around 1:00 pm is great.
Just looked it up on Board Game Geek – https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/368305/life-of-the-amazonia. It looks really good, in the same vein as Cascadia with maybe a few more strategic wrinkles.
I’ve got the following games available (not including “older” games like Clue):
– Ticket to Ride (US and PA/UK variant)
– Bohnanza
– El Capitan
– Cascadia
– Carcassonne
– Incan GoldSo we will have a good assortment to chose from. 🙂
April 11, 2024 at 12:13 pm #58615TimModerator@tbrown00 @tcsbgdady no worries at all. We’ll catch you next time. 🙂
April 10, 2024 at 6:28 pm #58608TimModeratorJust bumping this as the 13th is this Saturday. Wanted to get a likely headcount. I have invited several friends of mine (non-LUG members) at least 2 of whom are coming.
In:
@randomdan and @dansboss
@mitchsbricks
@argonvesher
Myself +2Out:
@hacimhUnknown (others who are in the north area and/or have expressed interest):
@bengood921
@megen19
@tbrown00
@tcsbgdady
@gregMy address is 105 Apple Blossom Lane, Cranberry Twp. If we get enough people, we can run at least two games simultaneously (there is plenty of room).
April 10, 2024 at 6:18 pm #58605TimModeratorI also have 20,000 – 30,000 1×1 trans light blue studs if we need water.
Yes, I think doing water would pull everything together nicely. We did water years ago with a previous castle display and, like (Ben’s) lava, it just works very well to fill in the gaps.
April 9, 2024 at 2:09 pm #58600TimModeratorThank you, Greg. I am just working out final dimensions of my landscape before posting a first draft of the layout. Does anyone else have any specific space requirements (other than “filler”)?
April 5, 2024 at 2:21 pm #58572TimModeratorI love how your avatar and your dad’s avatar are similar. Great aesthetic.
April 4, 2024 at 5:05 pm #58559TimModeratorI’d only be able to get down from Friday morning onward… maybe later Thursday evening. Is this acceptable?
This is fine. You are only required to check in by the end of the day Friday (around 5:00 pm) in order to get your badge, etc. So long as the rest of us attending know approximately how much space you’ve requested, we will leave that empty for you.
