So I am building a base..

Post » Sat Dec 17, 2011 6:36 am

I was just there yesterday scouting that area. I think you are right though, I just need to find a different building material one that isn't so time consuming.

Update: 12-13

Fast travel prison was a semi - success. kettle walls on one side basket walls on the other, back and front were built with iron ingot and iron shield roof. I did not take into account how tall I was on horse back..As soon as I fast traveled we busted the house down like Mr. Kool-Aid OOHH YEAA! I would say a good 40% of the item flew off into the sky. The rest of it landed scattered about covering a decent distance. One of the shields actually got stuck on the horses neck, almost looked like those cones you put on dogs. It did eventually disappear.


Can you edit your first post, please? I can't wait to see the results. :celebration:

An igloo made out of cheese wheels? That sounds deliciously difficult.

Muzzy, I will I swear. My problem is I get so involved with the game and building that I neglect to take pictures (aside from the one on page 6) As soon as I get some decent time on Skyrim I will deliver.

And I thought people put a lot of work into making Forge maps in Halo 3....

This thread is so epic. I started reading it during my lunch break at work and couldn't stop laughing. I wish you had a video of the fox running through the house you were building.

The thread also reminded me of the wonderful fun that can be had when objects can be moved around in a game...thanks! :thumbsup:

Update: 12-14/ 12-15

I see these two wheeled carriages all around Skyrim, I know I can push them...I wonder If I can fill them up and use them to transport more items? LOL, I can! I have the wagon filled with shields, ingot and a few random items. My companion and I are packed to the brim with building materials Although it isn't the correct way to use this cart I am pushing it with my horse (instead of pulling it for obvious reasons).

I am moving very slowly as to not flip the cart over....This is turning into a long trek. Unfortunately I am at the opposite end of the map from where I need to be.

......(sigh) I should have known better, the cart has terrible direction, making turn is incredibly difficult and all of a sudden everyone and their mother wants to fight me.....

Almost half way to my destination and a new problem has arrived....inclines! as luck would have it I have reach the top of the hill with little trouble but as I do my cart fly's down the opposite side, rolling flipping and throwing all my stuff all over the place. To make matters worse I am over encumbered (That's why I am riding the horse) ....it just keeps getting better and better. The cart headed down to the near by stream before spilling the remain content..No worries it seem a group of passing by Imperials what to assist me with recovering my goods, oh wait no they don't, they are here to arrest me..(previous basket/ kettle stealing spree)...For some reason when I tried to persuade them I was sent to a town hours away...my spoils of er..uh..war were take...making me about 200 pounds lighter...damn.

First off, who the hell cares if I steal baskets and Kettles?? Really!?...FML,
