Well, I was choosing how to paint my Empire army, and One day I chose a certain scheme, the next day another, and I never could really decide. I read in the army book, that you can go do your own schemes based on other Cities of the Empire (e.g. Bogenhafen and such) So I searched online and found this awesome map.

Looking at that Map, youc an see many cities located in the Empire that aren't displayed on the maps in the army book. After much deiberation, I have chosen Kemperbad for my armys home. It is located just north of Nuln.
I figure since it is a fairly large city, they may be able to muster a 2000pt. Warhost, and that is my current goal for my army. for the Knightly Order I was thinking of making one called the "Knights Osprey" (and osprey is a bird similar to a hawk) On the nights there would be a bird theme throughout, and on the standard I may convert it to a sort of roost which has a bird on top, I was thinking of using an Eagle from the high elves for this, although it may be too large for the standard. (Oh well, we'll see) For colour schemes of the army i am going a quatered pattern using the colours snot green and golden yellow. (Looks quite good in my opinion). For this i think a white undercoat shoudl work well (As lighter colours like yellow usually take many layers to cover black). So if there is any feedback or comments, let me know!
And if I can get access to my friend's digital camera, I'll take a picture of one of the crew for my cannon who has been painted in the amry's theme colours.
P.S. Here's the link to the maps page (has several cool Empire maps)
