I joined both, but if I were to choose one, it'd be Ravenclaw.

I favor the Empire, but actually joined both.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

This time I have chosen The Empire. Their logo looks noble, not like some dictatorial empire. I hope there will be peace at the end, happy ending, Empire and Rebels fighting together for everyone's well being :) (I already have concept in my head :P)

So it doesn't really matter which one you choose?  I got a confirmation of subscribing to the DT newsletter.  It just has the old album artwork on it.

Ravenskill first, but then both.

Although this gives us nothing new, I'm suddenly excited. Bring it on.

Whatever it is, it has to relate to the theme of the album somehow, right? This is all getting very interesting.

If Star Wars taught us anything, it's that the Empire is bad and the Rebels are good.

But... the Empire logo looks "good" and the rebel ones looks "evil", I'm undecided!

(From a narrative point of view, it would actually be something not cliched to have a good empire trying to resist an evil rebellious movement... we've all seen those bring-down-the-tyrants kind of scenarios)
I use my sig to pimp some bands from Italy! Check out Elvenking (Power / Folk metal), Folkstone (Rock / Medieval metal), Arcana Opera (Gothic/Noir/Heavy metal) and the beautiful voice of Elisa!

While I agree that the artwork doesn't necessarily look too polished, I find the design interesting -

The Great Northern Empire's design has two rings which interlock, while the Ravenskill Rebel Militia's logo is in an "x" shape or a starfish shape. If you superimpose them on top of each other, they roughly form the shape of the Majesty symbol.

Also, The Great Northern Empire looks fantasy themed (and has a fancy cursive font in the email dialogue box), while the Ravenskill Rebel Militia's aesthetic seems more futuristic (with a more computer-like front in the email dialogue box).
Ahh, I hit the home button!

That's a great observation. You are dead on with that.
