Author Topic: Laurentic Star Line - Thread  (Read 9210 times)

During the time when my friends posted ship pictures and video's in Blockland Gallery, many have said what is the whole Laurentic Star Line all about? The time where the Artanic-Class is built is just fictional, to make it look like they were old ships.

Laurentic Star Line is the ship fleet owner of the fictional ships and owned by Antares (BL_ID: 6979). The ships are made with Torque Constructor and you need to have much skills and enough time to create this beauty ships. The ships were made to remember the best, and grandest lovely liners of 1900 to 1950. I miss those ships, so much and I think that more people love it.

The best speech words I will never forget ‘‘Stand-by. We're leaving Southampton on the Mauretania, for another great voyage in deep waters. But this time it was different, this was her last Trans-Atlantic crossing.’’ - British Movietone News. When the RMS Mauretania from 1907 was moved to the ship breakers, thousands of people sung the song "Auld Lang Syne"

So what is the Laurentic Star Line exactly?
It's an fictional ship fleet company which owns/owned the following ships:

Artania-Class (ended in 2010)
RMS Artania - (1984-2009) Fate: Scrapped
RMS Mautania - (1985-1996&2009-2010) Fate: Scrapped
HMHS Freshtania - (1988-1998)  Fate: Sunk during collision or stuck on a mine

United Peekarica-Class
RMS United Peekarica - (1982-2010) Fate: Scrapped
RMS Queen Larissa - (2009-) Fate: In service
RMS Empress of Blockland - (1995-) Fate: In service

Artanic-Class (Four-stackers)
RMS Artanic - (2009-) Fate: In service
RMS Malantic II - (2009-2009) Fate: Sunk during collision
RMS Bricanic - (2009-2009) Fate: Sunk during collision
RMS Malantic III - (2010-) Fate: In service
RMS Olympic III - (2010-) Fate: In service

Mautanic-Class (Four-stackers)
RMS Mautanic - (2010-) Fate: In service
RMS Atlantic - (2010-) Fate: In service
RMS Majestic (first named Gigantic) - (2010-) Fate: In service

Ship Classes that never got built
RMS Queen Danique - (Plans cancelled in May 2010)
RMS Queen Melissa - (Plans cancelled in Mid-May 2010)
RMS Olympic - (Plans cancelled in June 2010)
SS Artania II - (Plans cancelled in April 2010)

If you're interested in some rare footages video's of two steamships, I prefer the Olympic and Mauretania.

I have most of those in Mission Editor. Are you ever going to release the others?

Yes. The Mautanic and Majestic has been undergoing many fixes and changes they will also soon be released.

yey


This changes were made not too long ago. You can edit the image file and add your name on the ship, it's only by the Mautanic and Majestic.


Mautanic-Class changes

  • New masts
  • Whistles
  • Mast crane
  • Bridge interior changed
  • Bridge table has now gallery stuff
  • En-closed C-deck (windows)
  • Telegraphs has now handles

For the Titanic-lovers. If I release my steamships, I will transfer the Mautanic later into an Olympic-Class liner. I will make three versions: Olympic, Titanic and Britannic. So people don't have to ask again about Titanic.

Also do not make so many video's on YouTube how my own ships getting stuck by an iceberg, torcreep attack, Roblox/Blockland war, or an nuclear war. It will blame the icon of Laurentic Star Line. Thanks. Use the ships for what they are made for example:
- For creating movies on it.
- Making an old 1930's news about it.
- Or something else.

Team list? :o Also i remember the Crew of The ship list, you showed me long ago, i asked for something btw...when you showed me.

Why you want to be on the crew list? Also there was never an picture or video about the RMS Queen Larissa made. This is the RMS Queen Larissa, she has no sister ships. There were plans in May this year to build two sisters, Queen Melissa and Queen Danique. Plans were cancelled duo the completion of the Replica Malantic and the new liners RMS Mautanic, Majestic (before she was named Gigantic) and Atlantic.

I want to be the pipe guy, that's why :o.

I will think about that.

RMS Olympic
Here is an picture of the RMS Olympic which is still in heavy development. There are many problems with making the stern and hull. The project took so many time that it was nearly vanished, this is how the ship looks like of today. If anyone wants to continue and finish her, send me an private message.

I seriously do not understand all this RMS Gigantic, Artanic, Maltanic, crap. Seriously it just seems to me you people are using the same ship over and over and just adding some backstory to it.


It isn't the same ship all over again. There are differences between the six four-stackers. They are fictional steamships in Blockland.

Sooooooo, it's a fanfic?

Yes, they are built to remember the great liners which crossed the Atlantic in the 20th Century.

They were also made for the Replica Titanic plan from 1998. I heard someone named Sarel Gous was trying to get the Titanic built in real-life with cruise-ship material, if he didn't had problems and critic the Titanic of 1912 would have sail in the days of now.


I started also in August this year with an Replica Olympic project. I have become so far that Harland and Wolff discovered my website, I will only tell more information if it will be published in the news papers and media websites. Since I have an reply of Harland and Wolff in my hotmail I will not publish the message in public.
