VOTING THREAD Warzone 16: Shot through the heart... and the Desert Kin

[MassEditor]

Who Can Vote: EVERYONE

How to Vote: Look at all the MOCs from each side. First, determine which side won this battle. You should base your opinion on a couple different factors:

A)Build quality amongst all MOCs

B)Number of MOCs of quality [Please remember that Ulandus has a numbers disadvantage here]

C) Story of the MOC

D) Fit to the Warzone. If you are not familiar with the requirements of the warzone, please at least read the “mini-challenge,” “restrictions,” and “Judging” sections listed below.

You can weigh these in any order, or add your own categories. Please consider the three above in your decision though. You may want to clarify or lobby for your favorites in this thread, but you don’t have to write anything if you don’t want to.

Next, pick an answer to each question in the poll.

In the second three questions it will ask you to pick your favorite MOC from each side. Please judge on quality of MOC and its story. You can add other qualifications to your own judging process if you would like.

Finally, submit your vote.

Warzone 16: Shot through the heart… and Desert King is to blame.

Location: C7

Who Can Participate: Everyone, love knows no bounds.

Terrain and history: Sands End has been through a lot during the civil war. For the history and terrain of this area, see the prelude.

Mini-challenge: The Battle for the Heart. After the fall of Northwall, the Desert King set its sight on the northern jewel of the North Road, the home of the present Guardian of the North Gate, Lady Phlici, the venerable city of Sands End. The troops of the north are wary. The Desert King’s men have been on a tear, but even they are a bit winded at the moment. Ulandus is hardly holding on to the region, and the High Council was still trying to make inroads as it looks like Queenscross will fall shortly. However, Sands end can be won in a different manner. Through the love of its leader. She is currently single, and smitten with one General Lat’ve, Third Centurion of Ulandus. But these are dire times, and a noble has to make the best marriage possible. There is a chance a suitor may come that offers a more promising union that will spare Sands End any more carnage during this war.

Ulandus, fend off the suitors! Show Lat’ve keeping the heart of Phlici. (Lat’ve can look like any human

male – or heck, throw in a new Ulandian suitor if the centurion is not to your taste.)

High Council and Desert King, seduce or woo Phlici into a union which will keep her city safely allied to your side for the rest of the war.

Remember, this is a competition for Phlici’s hand, and thus may (and should) end up in some direct confrontation between the three factions. All of which, if unarmed, are allowed within the gates of Sands End. (So if you are showing violence, there should be a good reason why it can happen within the gates – an alternative to this is that duels may be fought outside the gates)

This is a two part build. You can also build it in two 8x8 max MOCs or one 16x16 MOC. For the challengers, it should be clear how you got Lat’ve out of the picture, as well as how your new suitor won Phlici’s hand. For the defenders of Lat’ve’s union with Phlici, you should show Lat’ve defending his love, and at one point finally getting Phlici to affirm her love for him and accept his marriage proposal.

Restrictions: 8x16 times 2 MOCs or one 16x16, with limited overhang.

Due Date: May 10th

Special Note:

Because of the story-intensive nature of this Warzone and the difficulty in transfering that in a succint way in the voting thread, I've only added the entries with no photos to this thread. Please take the time to check each of these entries out. There are some wonderfully funny, interesting and illustrated entries to this Warzone and you are sure to enjoy the effort! If there is any concern about this decision or if it seems to negatively impact voter turnout (and if that's considered a bad thing), I can come back and add your photos.
