I'd rather call the Warlords Sarei Milhama because it deviates from the norm of english commander names.
Well, I had the idea of the Temple Keepers being 'just' priests.
I'm all for Pillars of Fire. If you have any byblical name suggestions for the commanders, tell me.
Visionary and Prophesier also sound kinda good to me.
Some real world ties are good, too much is bad, agreed.
Hmmm, Captain of Fifty sounds kinda good too...
