But I guess people are posting new posts instead of editing their final submissions.

In depth opinion: i like the main castle, i was disappointed when none of the other buildings had walls,
i don't like how workers can be trained to militia, it gets really annoying.
the race can be OP, especially when resources begin running low, build a lot of peasants and then train them to become swordsmen, you can go over the food limit and they only cost 65 gold.

I´m glad that you liked my work. I will be returning the favor ASAP and making a good review of your race.

Over the peasants issue, just around 40% of the peasants trained are upgraded into militia the rest are upgraded into a better tier of peasants (the elf ones)
In the 2.0 version of my race I added a system that exponentially reduced the chance to train a peasant that will turn into a militia, at most you would get train 11 of them over 40 peasant trained, then the change of getting a peasant that can be upgraded into a militia is 1% or less. HOPE that this new triggers can help reduce the over power upgrade line.

What do you think about the small building system? I didn`t have time to set the small building locations for every mayor building, so they just pop out in semi random places around the main building.(just maintaining the same distance from the center of the main building and a set angle between them)
I originally planed to add a wall system to all buildings that makes them untargetable by melee units until they destroyed the door or a section of the wall. (Walls and doors will be reappearing over time just like houses and small towers.)

If someone else is willing to tell me her/his opinion about my systems they are most than welcome.

Interesting... but the no WIPs thing for a contest is kindof a bummer.

i don't know what you are talking about, all entries have wips....

[Wazzz]

it's the rule that you're not allowed to submit wips as your final entry

[Ender]

no the rule is you have to have one wip that isn't your final entry : )

@Mr.Pockets00000 if you search long enough you will find them in the thread

[GhostThruster]

Wazzz Ender is technically right. Since we can't really determine what is and what isn't a WIP (eg. someone may submit a map which everyone thinks is a WIP, but maybe the dude is just really bad at making maps), the rule is just that the map must be playable and bug free to an extent.

So we already reached the deadline, I was wondering if yall are done with the contest or u gonna extend it? cuz if u do then i might aswell join.

[Wazzz]

i'm saying that's the rule he's referring to

sorry, i didn't understand your phrasing

I don't mean to sound like the whining impatient person that I am... but when is the poll going to be set up? the judges chosen and their verdict given?

[Wraithling]

@DSanhueza: I believe it has just ended ;) Feel free to give a critical feedback of the submissions in the meantime if you wish during the polling period.
