As per Wikipedia: "To prevent scurvy during the 19th century, British sailors were issued a daily allowance of citrus, such as lemon, and later switched to lime. The use of citrus was initially a closely guarded military secret, as scurvy was a common scourge of various national navies, and the ability to remain at sea for lengthy periods without contracting the disorder was a huge benefit for the military. British sailors thus acquired the nickname "Limey" because of their use of limes."
The Monostor Fortress - the largest modern fortress in Central Europe - was built between 1850 and 1871. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the neoclassical military monument is a fascinating sight with its huge walls of precisely hewn stone, the 3-4 metre thick earthen ramparts covering the defences and its network of underground passages (kazamata) several kilometres long.
Its monumental dimensions are evidenced by the following figures: The fortress covers 25 hectares, the total area including the firing ranges is 70 hectares, the floor area of the buildings is 25 680 m2 and the number of rooms is 640.
After the fortress was built, it served generations of soldiers of the Hungarian Defence Forces. Its tasks included the defence of the central fortress (North - Komárom) and the control of shipping on the Danube. It was never used in combat and served mainly as a training centre and weapons depot. During the First World War it was used as a conscription and training centre. During the Second World War, the 22nd Infantry Regiment had its headquarters at Fort Monostor, and the soldiers of the 1st and 2nd Infantry Regiments were stationed there. After the Second World War.
Between 1945 and 1990, the Red Army's Army Group South set up the largest ammunition depot in Central Europe in the fort. With their withdrawal, the military function of the fortress ended forever.
Today the fort is a popular destination with a military history exhibition, Cold War vehicles, a bread museum, a boat exhibition and numerous events.

Beauty is our weapon against nature; by it we make objects, giving them limit, symmetry, proportion. Beauty halts and freezes the melting flux of nature.
[Camille Paglia]
"No estaría mal que todas las fábricas de armas del mundo estuvieran como ésta: en ruinas" de "efe jota" con quien no puedo estar más de acuerdo.
"It wouldn't be bad if all the weapons factories in the world were like this: in ruins" by "efe jota" with whom I couldn't agree more.

We were succesful in fending off the Droids on Christophsis, but not without a cost. We lost one man and two more got injured. They gave us replacements from the Third Regiment to fill in the missing manpower needed for our next mission.
The next mission was on Teth. We have to aid General Skywalker and the 501st Legion in the rescue of a relative of Jabba The Hutt who got kidnapped by Separatist Forces and who are holding him in a monastery. Our part in the rescue mission was to disable a large Ion canon that the Separatists had placed on a second monastery not far away from the one the Hutt is kept in.
We have to make sure the Ion canon gets destroyed before General Skywalker and his troops arrive or there mission will be short lived!
The monastery is located on a large rock formation above the clouds and only accessibly via air. We choose to use high altitude jetpacks to get to the monastery.
VICTORY!
We were able to destroy the Ion Canon! The 501st is clear to enter the planet surface. The enemy didn’t expect our attack and didn’t know where to shoot first. We managed to catch them by surprise by flying up the mountain on the south-west corner. First we had to take down the turbo lasers and droid forces stationed on the monastery’s walls before we could destroy the Ion Canon. Not an easy task, but we managed to complete our mission!
-------------------------------------------
New 253rd build! I really enjoyed building this, the mountain was a pain in the ass at times but I'm glad with how it turned out! I really liked to build the monastery part though!
I hope you enjoy the MOC!
Bunker Solo weapons delivery, always delivered with the trucks, with the other vehicles there is no time, keep changing sections until the trucks appear.
You don't need to be in a hurry to make the delivery, take it easy, but if you have an accident, don't worry, there will be time to make the delivery.
Dalga, a high armored specialist with dual blades and pulse canon. Although it looks like he has experience, he just recently has been assembled and never fought before with real threats.
My third entry for round 3 of the Iron Forge. This build started out with the idea for a bow, which I was planning on building a character for. After trying a plethora of different designs, I wasn’t coming up with anything I liked, so I switched to an armory scene and added several other weapons to go with the bow.
