Here are the Rules:
1. The character must be cannon and from the chosen faction. They can have affinity, but the character must start in the chosen faction.
2. You may update any existing versions you already have and/or create a new one. You may update/create several versions of the character but you must ultimately select 1 you wish to run with. (this must be done by the schedule below)
3. Place a hyperlink in this forum to make it easier to find your character. You can just post the stats or image here but if changes are needed it would be easier (and save space) if you just used a Hyperlink (If you don't know how to post Hyperlinks in a forum setting please ask and we will help you. It's not hard )
4. Please rate the characters in this contest, however don't be so base as to 1 bomb the other characters in this contest. This is a friendly contest, just have fun, be honest and do your best.
5. Voting will look like this: "I rated so-and-so(A) an 8, so-and-so(B) an 9, and so-and-so(C) a 7. My vote goes to so-and-so(B). (this vote counts as 1 point) Please feel free to comment on why you made your choice, (what you liked) or not and just put your scores.
6. Too make things fair you must vote in order to win the contest. You must vote for all characters entered in the contest and you may not rate or vote for your own character.
7. The character that is rated the highest in the Bloo Milk rating system will receive a bonus of 2 points. The winner will be decided by how many points they receive (for example: so-and-so(B) received 3 individual votes and received the bonus 2 for being the highest rated character for a total of 5 points)
8. you may not change or update the entered character AFTER the deadline (from Tuesday-Thursday you may get advice and change your character accordingly) Friday at midnight before any votes are cast is the deadline.

The schedule will be like this: Monday the winner of last weeks CCC will announce his choice for the character (including his faction), from Tuesday till Friday characters can be created/updated but on Friday you must have picked one character to submit. Then voting will be held on Saturday, Sunday and Monday until 4, Monday night the winner will be announced and the next character picked.

For your consideration, my old Palps: http://www.bloomilk.com/Custom/16648/darth-sidious--bane-of-the-galaxy

Also, this isn't the entry, but kinda goes with it, and will hopefully help answer some questions (such as WHY THE HECK DOES HE HAVE FR THREE!?!?!), so I will also post the link to his Reborn Spirit: http://www.bloomilk.com/Custom/16682/palpatine--reborn

Haha Saber 1 you beat me too it! Regardless I will post my old idea from years ago:

http://www.bloomilk.com/Custom/13012/emperor-palpatine--hologram

Different from Saber1s but maybe not different enough. I may change my entry.

Its all good, GG. They each have a unique place in the faction. Yours focuses on clones, mine on Force users.

Any thoughts would be appreciated. I might edit Palps Reborn for some Luke centric stuff.


we can't open the Reborn link, is he by chance in private mode?

Huh I guess I did. I don't think I like Reborn anyway so I'm just going to stick with the other one.

Darth Sidious, Bane of the Galaxy (pegolego): 8.5 from me only due to the EoL ambiguity & the fact it really is completed by your Reborn piece; which may be bending this contests' rules(?). Outside of this contest, it's a very cool concept, and gave it a 9 on your CC page; 10 if that EoL ambiguity could be settled.

I have to grade the piece you entered here on it's own though...


Emperor Palpatine, Master of the Darkside (Deathwielded): I agreed with everything AndyHatton said on your CC page (and didn't feel like going through the formality of reposting it here, haha). 10 from me, great job!


Palpatine, Dark Lord of the Sith (AndyHatton): I've seen this -1 atk -1 dmg on other custom pieces before, what exactly is that about? Anyhow, very cool piece. 9 from me only due to the -1, -1 thing... haven't ever seen that on any real piece and that's the only tiny issue I have with it; otherwise great work man. Everyone else on your CC page has said what is cool about it, so dito!


Emperor Palpatine's Hologram (Saber1): I love the concept and would help those many Imp pieces, unique and non-unique that could use it. I mean, if the Sith get it for 11 points and can make non-force pieces gain FR1, why not Imps? Be a lil better if you perhaps made it 22 points, as this would effectively double the cost as compared to Sidiogram. Love the flavor aspect; granting Turn to the Dark Side. 9.9 from me, great job!


Emperor Palpatine, Hologram (GeneralGrievous): 8.5. I really appreciate the piece for what it does, as Andy mentioned on your CC page (he's good at critique, haha), and cost is fine enough. I believe the Order 66 guys wouldn't be considered Imp because they're brought in by CE rather than Affinity (if my understanding of the difference between bringing in pieces through affinity and CE is right) so it would limit what CE's they could get from the Imp's. The base stats are non-traditional to pieces with Hologram though... so due to this & the "faction'ing" Order 66 issues I gave it an 8.5. Because it's a contest I think we all have to nit-pick the details; otherwise I'd be "10'ing" everyone's concepts :)


Palpatine, Galactic Emperor (Lord Ball): 8.5 Being a bit of a "grammar nazi" here but your CE is missing the ; (semicolon) between "...not yet activated this round(;) that ally can spend.." I think Deathwielded is right when saying on your CC page that you might have been able to cost him lower (mid 30's maybe?).


In closing, good job to everyone, honestly. Everyone had very cool concepts, and was fun to look them over :)

-1/-1 is the equivalant of X/X, it is how it is represented on the Customs page. It just means he has no regular attack.

Yes, that is correct, you are only grading the one piece; I just posted the link (I should have been more specific, probably) so that everyone could actually see the Reborn Spirit, since it is directly allowed in by the other piece, but the actual entry, and thus the piece you judge is BotG, so you did it right Smile

Ahhh ok, I see. Do you suppose that giving it the --atk --dmg would be aesthetically more pleasing? Anyway, it's kinda 'nit-picky', I know, to mention that but I suppose for myself, I'll factor that in to my grading - if only to provide some separation from everyone else's pieces; since like I mentioned, they're all darn good concepts :)

I don't think you understand, I did give him --/--. It shows up as -1/-1 in the customs section.

The trick is to just leave the fields blank to get the desired result. I had to experiment to figure it out as I had the same problem.

Pegolego's Darth Sidious, Bane of the Galaxy 9.25
Dark Alter is pretty sick, helping the enemy with a chance to convert. That is pure Dark side my friend! Essance of Life may seem dubious, but I kinda like it.


Deathwielded's Emperor Palpatine, Master of the Darkside
My version is intended to create an alternative to Thrawn that help force users in the Imperials. Benefits to the Emperor's Hands and some interesting Initiative abilities.


AndyHatton's Palpatine, Dark Lord of the Sith 9.5
So Be It....Jedi looks MUCH better to me now. Like I said in his comments section I like a cheaper Dark Master and Pawn of the Darkside for the Imps and Sith. Specializing in Lightning is pretty awesome. I would like his cost to come down some though.

saber1's Emperor Palpatine's Hologram 9
A great low costing version to bring in Cheap Renewal would be great for the Imps, it doesn't help out the force starved Vaqder, DLotS version though Crying I see no problems with this piece.


General_Grievous' Emperor Palpatine, Hologram 8.5
The Imps already have 2 characters who bring in Order 66, yes we could use a lower costing Palps with Execute Order 66 IMO. This piece might be a slight problem in a Daala squad. Essentially adding Jedi Hunter to their skill list.


Lord_Ball's Palpatine, Galactic Emperor 8.75
Galactic Emperor is cool and I like the CE, though it isn't quite worth 42 points IMO.


HanSolo79's Emperor Palpatine, Scourge of the Jedi 8.25
Execute Order 66 and Affinity is excellent. Surprise Move and Leap work well on him IMO. I do think he has to many force powers, I think you could drop Force Farsight and Lower Master of the force to 2.
Jedi Purge really messes up the Republic even more, I personally don't care for that ability though.

My vote goes to Andy's version though Pego was a close second
