Challenge: Make two cards relating to an era of history.

Phoenix19 has chosen the Roman Empire. Hila Equatius Inflectus has chosen the Parthian Empire.

 

[spoiler=Roman Cards]1000th Legion - Infantry

EARTH ****

Warrior / Effect

ATK 1600 / DEF 1400

When this card is Normal Summoned, add 1 "Legion Formation" Spell Card from your Deck or Graveyard to your hand. Once per turn, when this card declares an attack, you can pay 500 Life Points to increase this card's ATK by 500 until the End Phase. If you activate this effect, this card cannot attack during your next Battle Phase.

 

Legion Formation - Testudo

Normal Spell Card

Select 1 face-up "1000th Legion" monster you control. Change it to Defense Position and increase its ATK by 200 and its DEF by 800. When the selected card is changed to Attack Position, except by a card effect, decrease its DEF by 1000.

 

The Roman Empire had vast amount of soliers, and I liked the name of the 1000th Legion...

The Testudo, or Tortoise, formation involved the soldiers overlapping their large shields in the first rank and above themselves to create an impenetrable wall. This protected them from a large number of attacks. After they break formation, I believe they would be slightly disorganized, hence the larger drop in DEF.

[spoiler=Parthian Cards]|The Parthian Houses|Spell|Continous|

 

When a monster with "Parthian - House" in it's name is Summoned, select and destroy 1 card on the field. Then decrease the ATK of 1 monster on the field by the destroyed card's ATK. Spell and Trap card's are treated as monster's with 500 ATK when this effect activates. When a "Parthian - House" monster is destroyed, increase your Life Points by 500.

 

|Parthian House - Suren|Warrior-Type|EARTH|Level 5|ATK 2000| DEF 1600|

When this card is Normal Summoned, switch control of all Beast-Type or Beast Warrior-Type monster's on the field. You can pay 500 Life Points to destroy all Warrior-Type, Beast-Type and Beast Warrior-Type monsters on the field. If this card is destroyed by a card effect, decrease the ATK of 1 monster on the field by 2000.

 

Diplomacy and 1 house of Parthia, also the reduction in ATK is also relative to parthian warfare.

 

 

Voters must give a semi-detailed report on which they think is better, using TWO or more of the following reasons:

Me! Make a 7 Star Dragon Monster.....

 

First written So i am Going to suck XD

 

can it only be a rep??

[Azphreal]

If you can make good cards in images, being written shouldn't make that much of a difference. The only thing different is that you have no card art. If that makes up the meat of your ratings, though, then yes, you are going to suck :D

And you have over 4000 points. What's 150?

 

Other than that, you're on. Cards must be in within two days (PM it to me), then voting is available after that.

[Azphreal]

LOLbump. Still need someone to vs.

[Hila Ⅰ]

I need to get back up the leaderbaord so I'll challenge you!

Requirements:

2 Cards representing 1 era in history

They must be both historical rivals

State your chosen era

Accept?

[Azphreal]

You're on! Cards must be in within two days. Judging for a week afterwards.

 

Good thing this is written.

 

I shall choose... the Roman Empire.

[Hila Ⅰ]

Ooooh you little! I will choose the Parthian Empire then :)

[Azphreal]

Alright.

 

Edit: Cards are up!

[Archelaus]

Roman Cards. They may be underpowered but they're more playable as the Parthian Cards need a lot of rulings for the Spell Becoming monsters effect + the second one has more OCG errors than the first set.

[Azphreal]

Alright. 1-0 to me.

Thank you.
