| You crazy people submitted 42 bands!!
42!! [:)]
LE had the strongest showing with 20 bands, followed by CG with 13, LG with 5 and CE with 4. Not to surprising given the parameters but I'll still take it as a big high five for LE [:)]
So, it's time to cut these suckers down if we're going to have any sort of manageable contest.
If you were a part of the last challenge you'll be familiar with the format. Below are four posts, one for each faction, with each band assigned a letter. Simply vote for your two favorite bands in each. For example:
LG: A,B LE: C,D CG: E,F CE: G.H
As to voting criterea, whatever you like! You can pick based on style, competitiveness or the coolest name. Go crazy.
Only one vote per person, and please don't vote for your own band.
Vote away!

I wish these had been divided more evenly. Dividing by faction seems to put those of us who build Elminster or Red Wizard based warbands at a severe disadvantage. | | | |

| Man, Elminster's wacky warband building has got me all messed up!
If you see a band in the wrong place, still feel free to vote for it under it's actual faction.
Hey, there's bound to be a few probs when one four-eyes is sortin' through 40-odd bands! | | Champion of the Prestige Class where mages focus on telekenesis and start throwing people into the ceiling and uber stuff like that.

| Hmmmm
Psistef.... Did you include maps for all the warbands that mentioned them? I noticed that mine was missing, and while I was considering votes for other bands, I realized that they might be missing theirs too. IMO, the map can really augment the warband, and while I know its a crapshoot at the beginning to determine bands, it still gives you a pretty good indication of how it will go about 1/2 the time.
That said, I do like
LE, D, B CG LE-J, LG-C LG A, B CE A, B
And I must say, I was surprised to see no-one pair up Mordy with the Lich in CE. I guess the DSlaad is much cooler these days....

| | Just to clarify; the rules of this format stated that current turney rules would be used, with the exception of an 8 vs 12 figure limit. That means assume tiles, not maps. This makes a big difference in how the teams would stack up. | | Larry Lindeman trade refrences: http://www.maxminis.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=12442 | |

Current tournaments can be and have been played on maps. There is no guarantee this would be specifically on tiles.

It's whatever you want it to be my friend.
For instance, I tend to play on maps, and I play to the death. Therefore, I think about which band would slaughter the other on a map.
Of course, I wanted to vote for the Elminster+Archmage combo for pure guts+style. This is all a bit of fun. | | Champion of the Prestige Class where mages focus on telekenesis and start throwing people into the ceiling and uber stuff like that.

| Well I voted for different warbands for different reasons.(I'm a bit erratic but so what!)I only picked one because It took long enough just to do that
LE.N It was between a couple, but the name one me over in the end! CG.D All spellcasters this band fits best with the theme. It may not be the strongest band but It will still do OK LG.E I love the idea of all the little guys hiding behind the construct poking him in the back with sharp sticks urging him forward.
