I'd also like to see the return of the Forestmen, one of my fav. castle factions.

But aren't Wolfpack poor themselves? So they steal for the poor, as well!Forestmen are thieves who steal for the poor (a somewhat honorable thing in a time of extreme corruption).
Wolfpack steal for themselves and will kill you if you get in their way!
I suppose that brings about the question; what exactly is a new theme? If we had forestmen who had different heraldry for example, would this be a new theme or a resurrection of the forestmen theme? We've seen castle as a whole die and return on several occasions with a various assortment of knights along the way. Is having the forestmen come back in a different incarnation actually the resurrection of an old theme?JoshWedin wrote:I totally vote for Wolfpack, followed closely by the Forestmen.

That's a very good point. I would say a different "incarnation" or different heraldry would be a new theme, at least in my book. For instance, the Forestmen did have a second incarnation. Lego called it "Dark Forest" but it was really more Forestmen. They looked a little different and the trees were brown instead of black, but they had the same heraldry. I wasn't crazy about it. So I guess, for me anyway, it boils down to heraldry.Blueandwhite wrote:I suppose that brings about the question; what exactly is a new theme?

Well... then I would rather see forestmen or the Wolfpack back. They seem more different from regular factions than the Bulls... more stealthy, maybe.Elbadar wrote:Mors, sorry for the somewhat unclear post. What i meant was that in their theme the bulls seemed like a roving band of mercenairies. Mercenairies were known to be unscrupulous characters who often stole and murdered as individuals, but when together they formed a real coherent fighting force. Since moste people either want a faction to be thieves or to be an army, the bulls are a good choice because they are both. Bulls, Mercenaries=thieves+army, everybody wins
