Description

Bringing back a familiar rivalry

2015 saw LEGO revive the Pirates theme after a long gap, and Soldiers Fort sits firmly on the side of the authorities — a small, fortified outpost built to keep pirates and smugglers in check, in keeping with the classic setting. For fans of the original Pirates sets from the 1990s and early 2000s, it's a welcome return to a familiar theme, rebuilt with more modern techniques and a noticeably higher level of detail than earlier fort designs offered.

A lot of detail packed into a small footprint

108 unique parts out of 234 pieces total is a remarkably high level of variety — almost every other piece is a distinct shape. That's typical of architectural sets like forts, where walls, battlements, doors and fittings each need their own dedicated elements rather than repeating heavily the way a vehicle build would. Anyone who enjoys hunting for small details will find plenty to look at here, from roofing sections to smaller hardware pieces dotted around the structure.

Five minifigures for a complete scene

Five minifigures are enough to stage a small conflict right at the fort, whether that's soldiers defending the walls or dealing with a captured pirate. That's enough characters acting at once to make the set a self-contained scene, even without a pirate ship set alongside it. For collectors building out the wider Pirates range, the fort provides the opposing side to the various pirate ships and hideouts already on the shelf.

Stone and timber rather than pirate brights

White, reddish brown, light bluish grey and black combine into a stony, timber-toned palette suited to a fortified outpost built from stone and wood. Compared with the bolder colours seen on many pirate ships, the fort reads as more earthy and military in character. The parts list on this page shows exactly how these colours are spread across the 108 unique parts, useful if you're after specific pieces for your own build.
