Post by: Oaka

Hehe, I had to start another one to suck everyone in.  Ok, I've actually thought about this one, this survivor tests the army that is the most unoriginal, i.e., is so heavily based on an actual historical culture that the comparisons aren't even clever.

Black Templars / Knights Templar - 10
Necrons / Egyptian - 10
Lizardmen / Mesoamerican - 10
Valhallans / Soviet Russian - 10
Tomb Kings / Egyptian - 10
Kroot / Native North American - 10
Praetorians / British Colonials - 10
Tau / Feudal Japanese - 10
Sisters of Battle / Catholicism - 10
Bretonnians / French - 10
Ogre Kingdoms / Mongolians - 10
Kislev / Russian - 10

Enjoy, I think it is quite difficult.

The list is inherently flawed by interpretation.
Catholicism isnt a culture either, arguably. But that i can go with. The egyptian reference is very wrong though. Think more Mesopotamian/Chaldean.

The reasoning that I think the sisters are the best reference is that they are a militant nunnery sect, who definatly dont believe in the seperation of church and state. Very catholic. Religion is power. They wield that power like a pagan hammer.

Empire, IMHO, closer references the English Civil War than it does the Holy Roman Empire. As xnet445 points out, quite a few Historicals players use Empire figs (or, as more common at the old LFGS, use ECW/WAB historicals to field Empire armies). Anyhow, voted down Tau as they really don't reference feudal Japan at all.

Kroot are a tricky one.  Because of their fieldcraft and auxillary status, plus the way their society works, many gamers have modeled them with a native american look.  However, their name 'Kroot' is a Thailand god, I believe, and Angkhor Prok is a city in Thailand.  So, it's difficult to pinpoint exactly where GW stole their ideas from, but they are not an original creation.

There is no such city as Angkhor Prok. There is, however, Angkor Wat, which is in Cambodia. My guess is people think "Thai" since the name/letter combinations are more familiar given the popularity of their fine cusine. In reality, Kroot have no connections (that I'm aware of) to either Thai, Cambo/Khmer, or Native American culture at all. Possibly jungle fieldcraft, but that goes for any indigenous/naturalized people living in jungle environments, from Southeast Asia to Africa or Central and South America. Throw in cannibalism, shapers/shaping, and their (somewhat) auxillary status and they are far closer to indigenous Africans or Central/South Americans.

The only model in the entire Ogre Kingdoms range that looks remotely Mongolian is the Ogre Tyrant, and that's mostly because of its helmet. Also, Mongolians were almost exclusively mounted and archer-heavy forces.

Voting off the army that is least like a particular culture so that the winner (theoretically) would be the one that is the most blatant rip off. Like the pretorians, who are obviously Zulu War British colonials.

We are supposed to be voting off the least like a culture.

For example, Necrons are nothing like Ancient Mesopotamian armies such as the Babylonian or Assyrian Empire. They are based on Terminator. So I'm voting them off.

Check Osprey's Book(s) on the Landsknecht, or Foundry's Renaissance line. Identical dress, weapons and imagery to GW's "Empire" figs. ECW is a bit more advanced, Shot-and-Pike, different dress

That's a mix of two different cultures. Thus it is neither. Why should empire get two when everything has one? And if it has two my hodgepodge point still stands: the blatant reference is not there.

I have a fair degree of confidence the catholic church does NOT have an army of power armored warrior nuns.

Agree with Nyarlatothep. Doesn't matter if they're non-human, as the culture's clearly ancient Mesoamerican. It's too late though. Lizardmen are done.

Out of morbid curiosity...how many of the people voting down the Sisters have read their background material (the bulk of which is in their 2nd Edition codex) lately? The army isn't called "Nuns with Guns" for nothing.

What have you guys perverted Survivor into?  Kid Kyoto started this little forum fun and it all made sense in the begining.  Now you are voting all backwards and honestly you should have stopped voting way back on page 3-4 becasue all the remaining entries are blatant rip-offs of historical cultures/armies.

Please consider the consequences of how you set up the canidates when you start it off or even better just let Survivor vote itself into extinction and is it just me or have the quality of all the Survivors been going down hill for about the last 3 or 4 of them.

This really should've stopped pages ago. Both of these are blatant ripoffs of historical armies/cultures as has everything since page 3-4. I say we keep this survivor going forever to prevent yet another ridiculous one from cropping up.
