Synagogue is a house of worship. It is used more as a Jewish church but it can work for this aswell (worshipers of Ragnaros, or what ever his name is.)

Synagogue is kinda strange. ALos, shouldnt the first one be Den of Flames?
And by the way, why is the last one called Pantheon? In Warcraft its Titans, and Titans imprsioned elementals. It may be something like Elemenatl Council or Elemntal Fortress. Everybody in Elemental Plane has one!

Those names are too simple and boring. I just like the sound of Pantheon. It is alot more creative then "Fortress" or other words like that. I like using words that you might know what it means, but don't hear it very often. That way it is more interesting and sounds cooler. Also note that this isn't a lore-based elemental race. It has some lore in it but the whole race isn't going to be lore-friendly

Also note that those are names that I just came up with today. I still need to put more thought into them and also try to find better ones. So they might Change.

Wormhole doesnt fit. Something like Burning Rift would fit better.
Oh, you already use it. Hm... Ragnaros is good, however if its connected to him the last tier should be connected to sulfur. Like his stronghold Sulfuris in Elemntal Plane.

Units can't have proper names. Maybe Nelth + something. Like Neltharian Brawler or something like that.

@Veljkom, Those would fit, but they just aren't that creative. I would like more creative and original names. But they will serve as a back up incase we can't find any thing

I just have my opinions. You're the boss. If you say it stay, then it stays. Simple as that.

Misha, imo those models don't fit in, appearance-wise. If I did put them in, what would they serve as? I only have one slot open, and I need a machanicle siege unit.

Tempest sounds great to me. That'll do for now.

Hmmm... thats a nice concept... maybe they have a unit that creates hurricanes? A weather machine (Elemental machine?)? Misha, could you create some kinda like floating flying rock that small elementals fly around it? You know, a giant rock and a lot of tiny red, blue, ligh blue and brown particles fly around it, making it fly and it also magnifies the power of those tiny elementals, allowing the weather control, creating mass destruction. And when it dies, those particles just disapear and rock fall on the ground and brakes... thats really awesome...
I say that we really need a machine that manipulates elements... another name: Elemental manipulator!

EDIT: StormWarriors2, stop acting so immature and commenting short off-topic posts...

I think that Misha has enough projects going on already. If at last resort, if there's a model that we absolutely need, then think of one that's much easier to make. One that doesn't require the creation of custom anims. And if it can be done with a few simple geomerges then even better.
And by machanical, it's not actually a machine with a bunch of buttons and flashy light. Think catapult. Something similar to that. I got it!!! A catapult, reskined to look like it's made of ice, that shoots ....... Giant snowballs. Woot!! lol

A floating rock might work as the seige unit. I think I have an idea on how to do that.
Woot now we have all the units. So let's move onto abilities and buildings.
 
woot! woot! buildings!

We don't have an upgrade building. Each of the 4 towers have an attack and defense upgrade for that element.

Later today I will try to put some thought into what elements the buildings will be. That way it will be easier to think of names.
