Um, but, prizes are fun and good? You don’t want… free things? This confuses me. ---

No we want players participating only to create new troops. Not players semi-participating for free stuffs. Only my point of view. But one free copy of the troop could be nice 😛 . ---

> [@Saltypatra](#): > > prizes are fun and good? You don’t want… free things? I’m with @turintuor - the aim of this exercise when @sirrian and I first came up with it was about getting engagement, debate and fun ideas - and troops appearing that the community could look at and think ‘I did that…’ I don’t think free stuff is necessary or helpful… maybe a free copy of said troop in the mail for everyone that contributes, or maybe just everyone… but certainly not prizes - making this a competition makes it open to friend-voting and other nonsense… ---

Wait until you see what we have planned, I think this will work better than what you are envisioning. I’m hoping that prizes will take the form of the card that is created. ---

can we have that in forum. i detest twitter, if all the troop creation will be handled through twitter/fb and not the **official** forum im going to be disappointed and not participate 😒 the best troop /trait ideas cant possibly fit in a parchment of toilet paper unles you dont really want to collect/archivise them in any sort of order, just flush? ---

If I had to guess, I would say that @Saltypatra will be taking suggestions from ALL sources, FB/Twitter/Forums/etc, just as she did for the PS4 competition. ---

This will be run on the forums. I’ll use social to get the word out, but it will be run here. ---

Can we get some spoilers like the base rarity? ---

I was hoping design by commitee where the community and not individuals create the cool new stuff. ---

Can we know at least if it’s going to be a one-shot project or a periodic one (2/3 times by year)? If it’s the second option, I hope we will have something like that (to keep somewhat the hype): 1st project, design a Common, 2nd a Rare, […], Xth project design a Mythic. ---

The community as a whole will be involved in the process. I won’t be posting any further spoilers. 😉 I am very excited though! ---

You get too excited over everything… Community create a kingdom instead. Salpatristan, kingdom of the Gnomes Color red, purple, blue And yes, you are a Gnome now. Deal with it -.- ---

Why am I a gnome? I mean, I know I’m short. I’m not ashamed about being excited. You can’t excited shame me. 😛 ---

One day Stonehammer and Yasmine had a bit too much to drink… then gnomes! [Previous page](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/design-a-troop-project-temporarily-closed/7932.md?page=9)
