I saw Daystar in the Temple of Ashan a couple of days ago, so he is not dead.

 Einomida
Judge's Pick for best Overall Design
 Adrius
What follows is the critical review. Congrats to all.
Blitzkrieg – An incomplete entry, lacking almost any depth whatsoever: 1.5
Jiriki9 – Very original concept, highly ingenuitive but slightly unorthodox, but no risk no gain. Great Ultimate ability, this faction will be hard to beat. Hero lineup good, and your creatures have very few flaws, and most have great abilities, most notably Hammerstrike and Magic Weapon. Your Tier 6 has too big an arsenal of spells, and your Tier 7 could kill a herd of Rhinos! Overall, a great entry 8.9
Lord Godric – Your story puts me off because of the unserious tone…Your creatures are hard to read…Underpowered creatures…Uncreative abilitied…Loosely strung creatures with no relations to each other…boring Tier 7…that’s the negative stuff. The positive stuff is that you have a great basic idea, your racial is rather cool. But, your perks are copied from other perks…Not very original. 6.5
Mvassilev – A lot imbalance issues, most of which come from just too many abilities. All except Tier 7. Its pretty well made, oddly, but you lack a lot of in depth description everyone else has. I just can’t give you a high score. Sorry. 7.0
Adrius – Very interesting approach to the background story. I like that a lot. Your creatures are very ingenious. I love Chained Spear. Your Tier 5 is amazing. Really great creatures overall, no heroes though, that hurts you slightly but pretty good. 9.0
Sweetcake – Not enough to even slightly gain a good score. 0.5
BlizzardBoy – WOW! I love the plot of your cities founding, its different from all the other entries. Instead of being refugees or a cult, your faction is merc based. I love that aspect of it. Footwork is a great ability..Very realistic abilities, with great ties to the creature’s flavor. Love your Undead Tier 6. Harbinger is a great ability. I can just picture Tornado Menace in my head and it makes me chuckle. Good balance of the Racial with Infamy. Your thematic elements just stun me. Your Hero’s seem like they were stolen from Ubi’s R&D vault. And your campaign hero’s just proved it.
Emilsn – Your entry setup is very daring and needed a lot of ingenuity to make it work. Your history part has little going for it, and your heroes are a little monotonous. Your dwarven heroes redeem you. I don’t understand your creature lineup. You don’t explain a lot. Your creatures are underpowered and simple. Which detracts from the strategy and battle experience. But, you do have a nice principle faction, worthy of a moderate score. 7.2
Einomida – Your lore is alluring, and I just love the principle of a treasurecomplex that heroes fight over. Its almost like its from a fiction novel, with its twists and turns. A great way to revive the Faceless. Although it’s a little uninventive of a name, I like Defender Forever. I like the Spells of the Heroes, but they’re somewhat disappointing in effect. However, I can tell you’re entry is incomplete. However, this entry is very well constructed. 7.5
Flackmandan – Predictable setup, with little to set it apart. A H4-esque type of abilities, very very dull and unsurprising. Sorry, but there’s just not enough here to warrant a good score. 5.6
Also, I'd like to ask of the people's further interest in this type of competition. I like it a lot, and I would be willing to recreate this contest if you all are interested.

I agree... but, Jiriki, you already made a new faction contest. It`s not going on too well atm, though, but I guess it´ s because of the Christmas-themed requirement.

I am well aware of this...but in my own contest I can not participate And I have to agree that the christmas-relation seems not to be taken so well But I'll end this round soon and give a more serious task, if there's still interest...

I'll keep participating in this, depending on where the other faction-contest thread goes. I don't want to participate in both.

I'm still interested.
And, by the way, I never got around to finishing my faction, so that's why it scored so low.

I'm still interested too.
But let's not make the previous round system a habit, limiting you to a picture kinda ruined my imagination... but maybe it's just me

Okay, here's an idea, each of us submit one random creature and then we choose four from that selection to use. I want to participate, but If I must, I will take control of the thread instead.

Yes, take over the thread if you wish
But then I demand that you (or someone else besides me lol) compile the scores and make a nice table with current creatures and stuff, like the one Daystar had.
And I wanna carrot too.

Hmm... alright... a random creature...
Ok, I suggest a Spider. Could get interesting.

So, the aye's have it. This competition stays alive. So, how should he rest of the weeks play out? As I said before, I will take the thread over if neccessary, and even judge if you'd like. So, We'll give a two day remission for the time period to gather thoughts.
