What To Do
[p]For this contest, we’d like to see where your loyalty lies. We want you to build something that screams fealty for Atreides, devotion to Harkonnen, or allegiance to none with CHOAM. Your creation can be a fortress, resting place, or any type of building so long as it fits the theme of your chosen faction. You can mix and match building pieces and decoration, so for example you can use CHOAM pieces in an Atreides themed building. Just remember that we’ll be judging the theming![/p][p]We’ll be judging creativity, originality, and how well it fits the theme. The judges will be developers within Funcom. We will also ONLY be judging the exterior of your building. We won’t stop you from unleashing your interior decorator if you so choose, but note that only the exterior will be judged.[/p]Due Date
[p]The contest will run from now, July 14th 2025, until 11:59pm CEST/6pm EST on Jul 28, 2025. Any entries submitted after that day and time will not be judged. Winners will be announced on August 8th 2025.[/p]Prizes
[p]Now let’s talk about the fun part. Here’s what you can expect to win for first place, runner ups, and honorable mentions. Note that if you win first place or runner up, we will need to privately contact you to collect a name and address to ship the items;[/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/42849822/9adc284625cae13af4b056963612bf6e5df76f43.jpg"][/img]We will have 3 first place winners.
