ok, these are the top 10. as i said, the perosn who wins gets to be in the credits, and can create a proper name for one of the heroes.
A special thanks goes out to Pheonix-IV, because he sumitted the most. And it shows. I think roughly 50% of those names are his. ^_^

I would actually prefer the name "Destructor's Plaza", but oh, well :(

I would like to veto the name of 'Warren' from the list:

1 chiefly British a : a place legally authorized for keeping small game (as hare or pheasant) b : the privilege of hunting game in such a warren
2 a (1) : an area (as of uncultivated ground) where rabbits breed (2) : a structure where rabbits are kept or bred b : the rabbits of a warren
3 a : a crowded tenement or district b : a maze of passageways or cubbies


The slightest suggestion of 'crowded property' is still very poor, and Warren shouts 'Rabbit hole' IMO.

barracks is a place where solders stay, a bunker is oddly enough a place where solders stay. bunker just mean barracks designed to withstand arms fire and explosions

By definition, maybe, but we're talking about a unit producer here, not a 'burrow' type structure.

but golblins are underground type creature, so warren works well

but warren sounds a little too organic...

I think boot camp is best... it's relatively understated and still suitably cartoony and humorous

I think my oppinion aught to count for something around here, I say boot camp, it suits the Igniters who are cigar-smoking marine rip-offs

I think boot camp is an appropriate name for a goblin dump. It sounds like its just a place where goblins hang out and do the gangster things there.

boot camp is definitely the best one on there. It makes the most sense.

boot camp sounds too "I'm a marine named chuck who's height in feet is 7, which is also my IQ" to me, but then again if that goblin is very "I'm a maniac called skroogiiii who's height in feet is 3, and whats IQ mean?" then it fits quite well
