Its got to be 5.  More in keeping with the middle ages type setting.

Nope. Working on stage of the whole heraldry thing at a time. So many choices that it'll be a while ;)

voted 4, 5 would work for me too, but had to choose one
'Our lives are not our own. From womb to tomb, we are bound to others. Past and present. And by each crime, and every kindness, we birth our future.'

'We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection.
The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.'

As I said in this thread I spent some time looking through alot of background patterns/fields for our Heraldry - what will end up displayed both on our Standard & our Guild Cloaks.

I do not rate most of the options, very very Elvish borders with a plain field being the larger choices in there, however I did manage to settle on the ones you all have the option to vote on. In this poll I am allowing people a maximum of 2 votes each, as I notice from the last poll that many people had difficulty choosing between 2 of the choices presented.

1:   2.

3.   4.

5.   6.

7.   8.

9.   10.

So I have sat down and gone through all the 78 background fields/patterns and picked out the ones I like the best and screenied how they look using the ingame viewer.  Ignore the temporary emblem for now, whatever we choose is not displayed until Rank20 so I am holding off on looking at those for another day or so.

Please see this poll thread for the images. You will notice that I have blue set as the pattern color on the majority, I'm reserving the right to keep this as the patterns colour, but the background colour is open to discussion (not pink mind you!) in the next few days. (What can I say, I like blue :D).  Once these choices are made we can then revisit the emblems and check them all out and find one for ourselves :)

#81 is the only one IMO that is not purely dwarfish :)

Nice work Beo, I am looking forward to wearing the cloak. I voted 6 and 8. No. 2 is very similar to no. 8 so that would be ok as well. Not that we had three votes but....
I think brown-yellow will be a more unusual choice and that is why it got my vote.

Just FYI, there is a post on the warhammer alliance forums which showed that if you chose Number 5 as a standard, then the bottom of the guild cloaks are currently also coming out that shape.

I am not sure if it is a bug, but it certainly raised a few eyebrows in the guild that chose it:-)
