LCC - Garheim Official Faction Thread *We've Moved!*

[Yorick]

You don't need to wait for a challenge to build. All free builds (non-challenge builds) count towards your personal points. Once you have enough points you can also enter a guild complete with its own challenges and points to be earned.Andhe

Thanks. i didn't know much about the system.

I missed posting these on here, but here are my two freebuilds for January. Is it enough to post them to the Flickr thread or should I post them here to receive points? Anyway, here they are!

I really had fun with this one. It was great making the path muddy and the surrounding area burnt and just overall destroyed.

Edit: just trying out the editing feature. I got my avatar photo up!

If you want your builds counted for points, they MUST be, at minimum, linked in this thread. Gurusql and I don't have time to scour the Internet for free builds

[DungeonsAndFlagons]

I think I have missed something in the rules for this competition. Can someone check to see if my entry is valid?

Can someone tell me if my build I submitted here for this competition was registered correctly?

Here is my first free build for February, "Jousting on the road". It's inspired by the King Arthur stories, in the way that the heroes are always finding countless knights to challenge them on the road. Click on the picture to read the story.

Yeah I saw that. Glad there was no hiccups on my behalf. This competition is fun.

The Lonely Tower by Mark of Siloam, on Flickr

Story:
Originally built as a tower to lookout for ships, this secluded tower in Garheim now serves a dual purpose of also hiding the amassing of troops for rebellion against Galainir.

"Glad to see you again, Mark. Last time we met in happier times; but I hope that we shall restore Roawia to those times 'ere long." said Ansgar as he greeted Mark of Siloam.
"My thoughts exactly, and thank you for your hospitality." Mark replied.
"It is my pleasure to help prepare for this rebellion."
"Yes, I am sure that.."
"Ansgar! one of the guards has spotted a queen's soldier making his way here!" interrupted a lookout from above.
"One? Is he alone?!"
"I think so! What should we do?" shouted the guard from above.
"Let's haul him in for questioning and see what he wants." Mark said to Ansgar.

Before long, the soldier of the queen came proudly marching up to the gates and demanded to be let in. He was shown in with guards on all sides, but he did not show that he was worried one bit. He proceeded to stand upon a platform and begin addressing the inhabitants of the castle as the gates were closed behind him. "As you all know by now, the great Queen Galainir has taken her rightful spot from the unworthy leaders which disgraced the throne afore her time." he paused for a breath, "It is my great pleasure herefore to declare that this castle is now under the control of her highness, Queen Galainir."
With this, no one said anything until Mark spoke up: "You and what army?"
"The soldier turned to face Mark and said, snickering, my dear sir, I need no army to take over this castle or any of Roawia! I can walk untouched wherever I choose! If I..."
This would have gone on much longer had Mark not mumbled 'dungeon' to Ansgar. It was here that he was seized and hauled, struggling, down to the dungeon.
Ansgar mumbled "for Garheim" into his ear as he passed by.


(Also, if anyone knows of good, free editing software, please let me know by private mailing me. Thanks!!)

I haven't received any new votes in several days. Please get your votes in for Garheim's GC6 finalists ASAP!!

If I don't receive any more votes by the end of the weekend, I guess I'll close the voting.
