I've just had too many ideas for the Dark Ages Competition, so I'm putting it out there and letting all y'all decide which FG you'd like to play against the most.
Check them out:
GRIMM

Grimm is a False God who found a wormhole into the real-world Dark Ages, and spend hundreds of years listening to the fearsome tales that the vassal fiefdoms told their peasants in order to keep them scared and needing the Knights to protect them. Grimm found wondrous inspiration in their horror stories, and used the magic of the 12 Elements to bring those stories to life -- and also 'stole' several human tools, from armor to alchemy, to increase his new minion's powers.
CARDINAL

The Middle Ages were a time of ignorance and savagery, but it was because the Church held all knowledge close to itself. Relying on the teachings of Aristotle, who told that the heavens themselves were immovable and all things outside of the Earth were still, the Church ruthlessly oppressed anyone who dared to say otherwise. Cardinal is the incarnation of the Dark Ages church, ruthless in Silencing its oppression, keeping its enemies stupid even as its own scholar-knights went to fight in far-off lands.
HASHASHIN

As the Crusaders brought holy war upon their enemies on the battlefield, the infidels struck back with their own insidious form of killer -- the hashashin, a drug-fueled frenzy killer trained by the legendary Man on the Mountain. Taught all manner of barbarous poison and given unique potions to keep their bodies going and minds sharp until their mission was over, the Hashashin believed that if they died in service to their Lord, great rewards awaited them in Heaven. Indeed, the most valorous and powerful of them found not only rewards, but Godhood awaiting...
LIONHEART

LIONHEART is a rushing God that brings lots and lots of quick Momentum to the table, and backs it up with healing for both himself and his minions. This should walk right through most CCYB/CHMD type rainbows that rely on Permafrost/Phase Shield and limited healing to stay alive. With both Morning Glory and Titan having the same cost, he won't play one over the other, and I don't see any other major AI problems. The shield-wise defense is almost nil, but what is there will speed up the attack a bit, and a pair of Miracles could make this fight much longer than looks like it will be.
