The Battle of Nimbus Station Needs You! Again!

The developers have brought back a contest used earlier this month! The Battle Of Nimbus Station Contest. Same rules, same game, different prizes. If you didn't win last time, now is your chance for payback (or something like that)! Play in the epic battle this weekend to show your skills and luck. The prizes are worth trying for.

Here is the official article straight from Lego's Community Site:


So you proved in the last Battle of Nimbus Station that you can take on a few Stromlings. And the occasional Stromling Mech. And maybe even a Dark Spiderling or two. But how about the dreaded Hammer Stromling Murgle Blotch, or the almighty Maelstrom Ape Kinga Hurl? Show what you are made of, team up with your fellow Nexus Force combatants and have a rematch with all the Maelstrom infected creatures in the Battle of Nimbus Station this weekend!

Let’s end Battle Month in LEGO Universe with a big Ka-Pow of a battle! This weekend, March 26 and March 27, finish 29 waves of enemies in the Battle of Nimbus Station mini-game for a chance to win some smashing LEGO Castle and LEGO Kingdoms prizes!

Granted, you are not time travelling all the way back to the Middle Ages, but time-twist your way to the Battle of Nimbus Station, and defend Nimbus Station against the Maelstrom onslaught!
Winning will be based on a combination of skill and luck. Make it through 29 waves of Maelstrom in the Battle of Nimbus Station mini-game to qualify. We will randomly draw 20 players from everyone who qualifies, across all three servers (Overbuild, Storm and Exeter).

Are you ready for this?

It's all about teamwork!

Teamwork seems to be a pretty big part of being successful in Lego Universe. In order to boost your abilities you need to learn how to work as a team. You should also be careful about who your pick to be on your team (but dont purposefully exclude someone). The people you have on your team can make a big difference on how long you last. Team members can support each other by regenerating armor, health, and imagination. Remember though, only certain factions can regenerate a certain type of stat point so this is where choosing wisely comes in. Soon, the developers claim that there will be a whole new set of abilities to use while battling as a team. Some of them include boosting the whole teams running speed, and keeping enemies locked up in a certain position. How cool would that be?

The Battle Of Nimbus Station Needs You!

Lego has made a new contest for the Battle of Nimbus Station! It looks like this challenge will be unique because it is not all skills. Once you have completed the entire battle, you have qualified to enter the contest. Then, they will randomly pick names to win prizes. The contest only lasts this weekend though, so be sure to play in the battle. Check out this article directly from their community site:

Time-Twist Back to the Battle Of Nimbus Station

Copied from the Lego Universe Patcher

On February 23rd, you get the chance to go back in time and battle for Nimbus Station. The battle will be almost like a Survival Minigame, with four players to a team. However, there will 30 waves of Maelstrom, each harder than the next, so expect some tougher enemies. If you are looking for some gear to make the battle a little easier, it is recommended that you go to Crux Prime and stock up on some weapons or consumables.

How to Survive in Survival

Ever wondered how to get a good survival time? Here is a good tip that will add at least 1 minute and 30 seconds to your time. There is an area where you are safe from stromlings until the robots come along. Watch the video for a visual explanation.
