Every year, residents and visitors of Alma, NB send off the Lobster Fleet with a huge celebration including fireworks, pipers, and lots of local food. The fleet departs with the first high tide, whenever that occurs. This year (October 14, 2018), the tide was high enough to float the boats at 2 AM, so that's when the fesitvities occurred!

The fleet of Shiryoku engages the 6th Fleet of the People's Republic of Catland.

The Shiryokan Air and Naval forces carry out a retaliatory strike on the PRC 6th Fleet, blocking off all retreat from E.
A full on strike is already prepared in response to the push by the leaders of the PRC to end the peace with Shiryoku, and a heavy offensive will begin in the first few days of August.
Made for Decisive Action 4!

Das Fleet (oder auch Vlieth, in unterschiedlichsten historischen Schreibweisen vorkommend, abgeleitet vom plattdeutschen Wort fleeten (=fließen)) ist eine norddeutsche Bezeichnung für Gräben bzw. künstliche Wasserverbindungen. Ursprünglich zur Entwässerung angelegt dienten sie später zunehmend dem Warenverkehr sowie z. T. auch der Verteidigung als Stadtgraben. Eine der frühesten Nennungen des Begriffes findet man in einer bekannten Hamburger Weisheit des 16. Jahrhunderts wieder, die da lautet: „Rücken zum Fleet! […] Bauch zum Hafen! […] Auf, Kameraden!“
Im Gegensatz zu einem Kanal wurde ursprünglich im Fleet der Wasserstand nicht durch Schleusen geregelt, sondern schwankte mit der Tide, dadurch kommt es zu Schlickablagerungen, mit deren Beseitigung der Berufsstand der Fleetenkieker beauftragt ist. Das Fleet war also ein künstliches bzw. ausgebautes Fließgewässer, während der Kanal meist ein künstliches stehendes Gewässer ist.

Entry to the Small Starfighter Contest.
Well, it's been nearly six weeks since I last posted anything. I have my reasons though.
1) Homefront building, which is completed.
2) I now have a job.
3) Trying to finish Eagle Scout and another project before the end of next school year.
4) Swim team.
Takes up a lot of time, those four things. And it's summer. Gosh.
Hopefully next summer will be more restful.
Oh, and this will be coming to BF with me, along with another small starfighter that will hopefully be better designed. :P
I'll be there probably Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and just long enough on Sunday to pick up my stuff and finish up.

Just another fleet built for Lukas's Microspacewars rules, though despite having three friends over with fleets yesterday, we still haven't played a game.

The annual Torbay half marathon held on a Sunday in late June sees many roads around Torquay & Paignton closed for the morning. Most services diverted via the Ring Road providing a few opportunities to catch buses in places they wouldn't normally run in. Top of my list was the two Rail River Link services, the NT5 & 100 that leave Torquay's Strand area at 09.30 & 10.00. In previous years I'd caught their Pointer Dart & Leyland Olympian running through the heart of Torquay shopping area, and was wanting to finally get one of their open top VRs there, but with persistent rain I thought there was little chance of that being possible this year. Happily the familiar sound of a VR could be heard roaring up the bottom part of Fleet Street bound for Totnes. I had to leave the shelter of Fleet Walk's covered areas to get this shot, but retreated swiftly after. lol!
For those who don't know the River Fleet used to run down where Fleet Street now resides, but on days like this it tries to make a reappearance!!

We took a walk to the mail shopping centre and decided to stop for a spot of lunch before we came home - We stopped at the Fleet, a pub/restaurant across the road from the Guildhall (just right of this photo). Tim, JJ and I went for our usual drinks - you can see them lined up! The Fleet (the red brick building) is right at the heart of uni land and the prices are very good here. Super old buildings - the one ahead belongs to the university now but I remember it as the city library when I was a child.

Inspired by micro fleets such as this one by Chewk, and this one by Gladius, and spurred on by my recent enjoyment with Microspace, I decided to build a fleet of my own! I've had these built for over two weeks, but I've only just managed to upload them after struggling to get the fleet succesfully photographed. They are built to play against my friends (with fleets they will build no matter what they may think :P), and are based on this set of MicroSpaceWars rules by Spook. Enjoy, and take a look at the individual photos for info on each ship.
