We need more steampunk XD I don´t know, but wonders seems to boring for me^^ Of course you can do whatever you want but it has to look like one of the real wonders ;(

 

[Dr. House]

[Grave_Digger_]

Now, thanks to me steampunk also have 10 votes!

 

[Eleandor]

I don't even understand what the fuck steampunk is. o.Ó
Is it like... old industrial technology but much more advanced or something?

My personal definition: how would this century look like if they never discovered electricity and would have further developed steam technology. A big influence is also the victorian way of life. Typical electrical components such as a transistor would be mimicked by *large* (compared to transistors) gears and such. The industrial era, but with many of today's technologies reinvented.

Some worlds can feature fantasy elements too, such as elfs or dwarfs. Or dragons. But usually reinvented, such as a mechanical steam dragon.

 

[Sephalo]

I also like the steampunk idea alot but it makes me afraid of something.
I feel heavy siege engine, flying machine or tinkerspam incomming and I don't like it! I would personally try to avoid those models if I would create a steampunk terrain (or is building, factory or construction a better word?) but I'm afraid most of the ppl wont.

 

[Destructor [DoR]]

There are not many models in the Editor that can fit with steampunkt and without the UTM it would be a tinker spam XD

Some model pack for the contest could solve that problem.

Already preparing myself for steampunk because got the feeling it will win. Checking wc3c.net and hive model sections for interesting things. Not that much but still a few things could be used!
I like the challenge

 

[syltman]

I remember that I found a model pack with a bunch off cogs and wheels on Wc3c I wonder if you can still find them there

 

[Destructor [DoR]]

If anyone wants to change their vote from emotional to something else, let me know, cus it won't be hosted. My bad, sorry guys.

Then remove the vote option before more and more people vote for emotional^^

 

[Eleandor]

Meh... 4 options already have equal votes

(smart people vote for steampunk!)

 

[Gilles]

I don't think I can, or I would have.

 

[RoleplayingKing]

This hasn't started yet, has it?

 

[Gilles]

No it hasn't.

 

[Sephalo]

Would be great if people stopped voting for emotional because they're wasting their vote.

 

[Dr. House]

really? so smart people waste there time to make somthing that has to do with steam,gear,iron metal of whatever.

Be smart and vote for Wonders of the world.

 

[Celaquil]

Be smart and vote for Wonders of the world.

I sincerely disagree.

 

[Sephalo]

funny..
wonders vs steampunk are bitching at eachother while heaven vs hell is sneaking away with the trophy.

 

[Destructor [DoR]]

We still have 11 emotional XD

 

[Celaquil]

I am a "heaven vs hell!" D:

 

[Handycombinder]

I hope it's gonna be Heaven vs. Hell. Have the perfect idea in my mind

 

[Belgarath]

Change my vote to wonders then, gilles

 

[Gilles]

Since I leave on the 26th, and won't have time on the 25th to set this up, I'm closing this tomorrow.

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

Seems like it will be Heaven vs Hell, then. Should be fun.

 

[HFR]

Heaven vs Hell... Well, not the worst one, at least.

 

[Destructor [DoR]]

Now it´s Steampunkt vs Heaven vs Hell^^

 

[Gilles]

What about doing something like this again?

Sounds nice but now the voting has been done changing it to a new subject? Maybe its something for after this contest to make it fair for others. However I still like it!

 

[Handycombinder]

Looks like steampunk wins

 

[Destructor [DoR]]

13 vs 14 and if one of emotional change his vote it can change XD

 

[The_Grapist]

Emo Terrain.
I would be number 1 at that

 

[Deathcom3s]

Looks like Steampunks in the lead right now.

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

I should remind everyone there just aren't any steampunk doodads. -.-

 

[L2love]

ya if som1 wants 2 go make 1 then it will be easyer but with steampunk your gonna have 2 be vary imaginative 2 make it steampunk.

 

[RoleplayingKing]

I should remind everyone there just aren't any steampunk doodads. -.-

That is what I am worried about.

 

[HFR]

Actualy, most of the users who voted at Steampunk aren't terrainers at all.

 

[Destructor [DoR]]

I think there are enough doodas in the UTM to create a steampunk terrain. And i´ts much more fun to create something big with small doodas than just place a model.

 

[Oziris]

If steampunk wins, i know a perfect thing to make, mmmm.....It's a Steampunk landscape ( I said it because i don't want anyone making it before me ) >.>

 

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

This doesn't mean anything. Most people who vote aren't terrainers, period.

Still, there are no steapunk doodads or anything that looks even remotely steampunk and basing a whole contest around it is stupid.

I had a few idea's already on what to make. I had an idea already about Dinosaur steampunk you see. Once read a book where people lived with dinosaurs and used steampunkish machines in combination with the dinosaurs to build impressive buildings or armies. With triceratopses with huts on their back with cannons stationed in it and diplodocusses with steampressure rams on their backs.

Ofc you could steal this idea but I think nobody would feel proud of it anyway. Don't care if you steal but if it becomes steampunk I'm going to use alot of Olofmolemans models (if you know what I'm talking about.)

Just be creative and the doodads shold be fine

 

[HFR]

That's why I said that.

Non-terrainer = "I don't know what models the UTM has".

Basically, they vote on something because they think that:

1. The theme is cool.
2. There are cool models to use.

But, as you already said, there aren't any steampunk doodads.

 

[Firelord213]

Wonders of the World <3
I'll probably join the contest if this one wins.

 

[Destructor [DoR]]

Just because there are not so many steampunk doodas doesn´t mean you cannot make the contest, look at all the hand/robot terrains, and there are no hand/robot doodas

 

[HFR]

Did you ever saw one of these robots with metal parts, resembling an old and rusted machinery? No, because the robots are created with archways and other cityscape/other structure doodads.

 

[Destructor [DoR]]

Ther´s a wheel dooda made of wood/steel , if you put them together you have metall pipe I don´t see any problem if you can make a robot with archways and steampunk with wheels^^

Edit*
Looked over the model section and there are a lot of doodas that can be used. Just recolour some and you have great metal doodas

[The_Grapist]

When will this start?

 

[Celaquil]

I would say, saying there isnt any models for the job is simply ignorance and laziness. I hope steampunk wins and I am MORE than prepeared to experiement with doodads to make an awesome terrain.

Raid10011001010 will probably make some kick ass terrain like always T_T
