I'm in! Sign me up!

Regarding Baphomet, I love him! We just need a nice sprite of a goat headed dude with lots of nice pentagrams. (just make sure to give him a nice long caduceus )

A very misunderstood fellow, to be sure.

"Templi omnium hominum pacis abhas"

The dominions baphomet is the flaming head available to Marignon. Which is very loosely based on the bearded head that the knights templar were accused of worshippong in their trials, not the Eliphas Levi goatgirl. So no pentagrams or cadeceus.

Then both you AND JohanK should have it as your avatars, not just him!

Well, that is certainly no problem considering that the Templars were being tortured when they talked about the idol and even what they said is about a mysterious as anything could be

I love mysteries, and Baphomet certainly qualifies. Whatever it is, I'm sure it will be very cool and fun

Until the competition is finished you will not get access to the scenario map files and premade gods (only the basic map file).

Does this sound OK?

It sounds great! This is the way scenarios should be run IMHO; what fun is it to see ahead of time all the special things the author has worked in?

nice story, and the spheric thumbnail showing a map seems very attractive!

edit : if the Baphomet is an AI, then buff it badly, and when you feel he is strong enough, double all his assets.

GIMP does nice things like that. Its cool that the Devs use it. You can also create a spinning globe gif (dont remember if GIMP did that but I know if it wasnt then it was some other free program) which would be neat as a web-page icon for a downloadable map.
