Greetings again, fellow soldiers! Tamur, force commander of Kaiator, here (again). I’m happy to report that I’m now seeing the passion I had hoped for during this initial vanarch election. Your posters are bold and your devotion to your candidates is inspiring. Real leaders bring out the best in their soldiers, and it’s clear from these posters that we have some inspirational leaders in our ranks.
I chose the victors based on the effectiveness of the submitted posters and the persuasiveness of the accompanying texts describing why their candidates should win. There were many worthwhile entries. I present you with the strongest here.
View their posters. Read their words. I think you’ll share my excitement.
