What would one expect to meet at an Imperial Outpost? The Imperial Armada? Or Imperial Soldiers? Well, whatever you might have thought of, you certainly didn’t think of pirates, did you? It seems that The Conquered Outpost by cjtonic has indeed been conquered by pirates.

This is my first Pirates MOC: The Conquered Outpost. While designing it I realized how much fun I had back in the day when playing with the original Pirates sets. The model consists of the island, the small cave with the treasure hidden in the back behind the skeleton and a small house with fireplace and bedroom for the soldiers (now pirates).
Come, ye be welcome no matter if yer right or if yer wrong!
A better look at the building. Seems that there are only few remains of the classic yellow colour that outposts always use
The Backstory
This Imperial Outpost was once conquered by the pirates who have been living there ever since. Only recently they discovered there was this treasure cave underneath the small island, but it took some time before someone dared to move the skeleton sitting in front of the entrance door.
How come Redbeard’s crew ended up here? No one knows…
What would a pirate’s life be without rum? Only sorrow and hard work, that be for sure!
4+ Juniors Captain has come a long way since his initial appearance. Seems like he has managed to snatch a few of Redbeard’s men!
Watch out, Popsy, the daft captain is about to shoot at ye!
Now that ye have got a good idea of the surroundings it would be best to give up the booty and walk the plank see the hidden cave with all the precious treasure this captain has been looking for.
Supposed exploration attempt that consisted of moving the skeleton who was blocking entrance to the cave
Oh look, a friendly face says hello!
A poor soul who wasn’t so lucky. What would the room forward contain, I wonder?
Look at all this treasure! Forget all the pirate pubs in the world, this is the place I long to be!

A good look from the left side, this roof might collapse at any point, given its state!
At last, a top-down view, as if it were a map
