The Garrison image is Russian and I think it's called 'Hundred year war' or something like that. In russian, of course. Aside from that, I haven't made any progress in finding its artist :(

It appears to be the cover for a box of model toy soldiers that you can paint and such. Produced by a company called Zvezda.

I like the look of all the work you folks have been doing - great job.

One thing - not sure if it has been mentioned already - the borders on the victory cards appears to be slightly purple - could be my eyes, or my computer - but they just don't look quite right when compared to the other cards background (a more true black).

If you are going with that theme, and I don't dislike it... Why not Renaissance?

Rebuild, reconstruction, renaissance.... how about "Reformation"? That way you catch the theme you want and the approximately correct historical era in a single word.

Yes, I noticed that. It's my scanner and I'm not that good at changing colors in Photoshop.

Dominion: Rebuild (working title) is a fan expansion to the game of Dominion created by the DominionStrategy.com community.  The central themes are copper interaction and alternate victory cards.[/i]

I like the text, but agree with ChocophileBenj. We really can't know yet what the central theme will be.

I've been trying to push a theme of my own, though I doubt anyone has noticed (and it's kind of a strange one anyway)...

At first I had thought that it would have been interesting if rinkworks had declared a theme for the set at the start of the challenges, but now I think it's more interesting to see different themes emerging as the contest progresses. Maybe a new theme will emerge after the winners of the next set of challenges are announced?

Kirian said that "Amulet" was largely a placeholder name.  Any suggestions for Kirian?  I think it would be fun to find a name that starts with C, so that it matches the other $5 Golds.

Like I mentioned in the other thread, certainly feel free to change it. I like hunting for images and don't feel offended at all if ones I find aren't used... Same goes for WW and his card.

If you want to keep the idea and use a word that starts with C then Charm could be used. From what I understand an amulet is the Eastern version and a charm is the western version of basically the same idea.

Shoot, you think I spent a lot of time on the name? I might have spent 2 minutes on the name, so yeah, that is ages I guess. Spent half an hour to an hour on the card, or something thereabouts.

(So go ahead and change the name - I do not care).

I like Production Village. The other draw-to-5 card is JoaT.  Trades.  Production.  It works. :P

For Amulet, if it hasn't been suggested yet, something like Golden Idol would work well.  It's expensive and worth a lot, and people come to give it sacrifices...

Not sure if I should post it here but it seems like the current contest threads are mixed along with threads of previous submissions and submission reviews, perhaps the contest threads that are running should be stickied?

I really like how Pawnshop will interact with some Dark Ages on-trash cards.

I still think Amulet is a fine name.

I suppose we'll figure out the mark for the bottom right after the set is complete and we have an expansion name?

That would be cool -- maybe for a last challenge submit an expansion name and symbol? Maybe even provide some flavor text introducing the set?

I'd like to use this image for Aqua Vitae:

http://lady-symphonia.deviantart.com/#/d3lef2w

I'm finding the artist difficult to contact... I went on her website and found two emails.  I tried one and it bounced back.  Tried the other and now waiting to see if it fails too... hmm.

The artist has kindly given permission. ;D

I can probably find some time to make the other cards if someone provides a royalty free image, or the artist has granted permission for the image.

Alternatively, if someone takes a suitable photograph for a card (possible for Retort, maybe?), I could probably modify it enough to be a passable "illustration".
