Inspired by Ackmodual, I've decided to create a Thematic Kingdom Design Contest. Please submit a kingdom and a name for the kingdom by June 27 by posting it here, at which point we will vote for the best. The prize will be +50 respect (lame, I know).

Once the voting will begin, the kingdoms will be evaluated not only on theme, but also on playability, though theme will be the most important. Users will be able to vote after (hopefully) playing all the kingdoms and then deciding which one they like the most.

How can you give 50 respect?

You could include King's Court; it looks fairly skippable on this board.

Is it more skippable than we think?

The f.ds memes one is one cool theme. It should also be popular around here. And there are more forum-inspired themes waiting to be made. Please someone make an edge-case theme!

My designed kingdom might not be playable by normal people IRL following RAW, but I'm counting on you.

Name:
Rule Questions

Cards:
Black Market
Fortress
Ironworks
Procession
Trader
Band of Misfits
Graverobber
Merchant Guild
Outpost
Possession

Events:
Inheritance
Mission

Use Shelters and Provinces

[Awaclus]

I still think this is pretty good, but I'm probably the only JE fan here given that when I searched for "Jade Empire" in order to find this, I only found my own posts.

Jade Empire:

Tactician - Master Li
Talisman - The Amulet
Fortress - The Lotus Assassin fortress
Tournament - The Imperial Arena
Throne Room - The Emperor's throne room
Golem - The golems
Merchant Guild - The Guild
Scheme - Master Li's plan
Cultist - The Lotus Assassins
Band of Misfits - The player and her/his followers

EDIT: Use Shelters, because Necropolis - Necropolis

The Amulet should obviously be Amulet now.

Jade Empire is a solid game.

Amulet is a good addition in place of Talisman. Hate to see no trashing with Fortress on the board.

Make the queen a Young Witch instead, and you can have an 11th kingdom pile, which could be Castles.

Okay, the first round of voting has begun. It will remain open until the end of the month.

[LibraryAdventurer]

woah, I didn't know we'd actually be voting on these, or I would've put way too much thought into designing a new one and submitting that.

PS: shouldn't the voting be done using brackets?

[Seprix]

I am happier with brackets. BRING BACK THE MEME

Is this going to be a Pirates of The Caribbean moment where everyone votes for themselves?

[McGarnacle]

Yes, I just realized it should be brackets. I'll keep the poll up though. For the brackets, I'll just match up the last posted kingdom with the first posted kingdom and so on.

f.ds meme theme vs Kingdom Builder
Roadrunner's unnamed kingdom vs In the Woods
Pauper's Kingdom vs Dominion: Cities and Knights
A Day At The Zoo vs Going Dutch
Colloseum  vs Setbacks and strategery
Do. T. vs On to Victory
Rule Questions vs Dialing for Dollars
Jade Empire vs You can Bank on it
Chess vs Hogwarts

Fall of Rome will get a bye. If I forgot any, let me know.

[McGarnacle]

Is this going to be a Pirates of The Caribbean moment where everyone votes for themselves?

Absolutely

The poll closed because I left it open for three days before I thought of the brackets. Disregard the poll and we will use brackets instead. Sorry for the inconvenience  .
