Fictional Americas 1.6

Who's feeling like playing a game of Fictional Americas 1.6, the coolest scenario ever made?

I call the Vikings because I suck.

Vikings: St. Leo
Irish:
Chinese:
Romans:
Phoenicians:

St Leo · June 21, 2002, 01:46

Lots of conquerable land.

JMarks · June 21, 2002, 09:21

Wow, never seen this scenario, but I'll give it a try.

I'll take the Chinese because I have no idea how this scenario works.

Henrik · June 21, 2002, 10:10

Im kinda interested too...
I'll have the Pheonicans (but someone has to supply me with an event file as I can't run the exe on my mac)

St Leo · June 21, 2002, 19:22

Vikings: St. Leo
Irish:
Romans:
Phoenicians: Henrik
Chinese: JMarks

The attached events file assumes that all five players will be human.

Who made the scenario? I was playing and the skirmishers didn't attack anyone. Doesn't matter to me in a PBEM, but just thought it odd since it is the Native's only attacking unit.

St Leo · June 22, 2002, 17:19

Who made the scenario?

The guy who called it "the coolest scenario ever" made it (i.e. me*).

Should we start if no one else is interested by monday?

* Actually, I think that should be (i.e. I). That's how it would be in Latin, but English is just too confusing.

JMarks · June 24, 2002, 00:00

We need two more players! Irish and Roman. Who else wants to play?

Case · June 24, 2002, 01:27

I'll take the Irish

(I decided between them and the Romans by flipping a coin

)

Goingonit · June 24, 2002, 19:37

Darn.

this looks really good, but I'm going away for 3 weeks. If you still haven't found anybody though ...

JMarks · June 26, 2002, 21:26

Question, shall we hold out for a Roman player, or try to pick one up along the way? Otherwise, who starts?

Actually it would be i.e. ego. But the way we use it in English I think demands the accusative, or whatever we call that. (I'm better with Greek/Roman case names even though there are more than in English

)

That's a big question because humans and the AI have different events. Personally, I'd prefer to do without the Irish than without the Romans because the Phoenicians will end up with all of South America and they need a threat other than the Viking navy.

Order of Turns:
1) Vikings
2) Irish
3) Phoenicians
4) Romans
5) Chinese

Smaug · June 27, 2002, 02:19

I'll play the Romans.

JMarks · June 27, 2002, 09:00

Whoo hooo! Start the game Leo! Oh, one last question. What difficulty are we using? I don't really care, but it'd be nice to know.

Case · June 27, 2002, 19:05

We need to use Prince difficulty to reduce the AI's influence on the game

JMarks · June 27, 2002, 19:18

Alright! St Leo, start the game!

Chinese Towns in Growth

The Emperor overseas has blessed our presence with a general. With Sun Tzo, we shall conquer the western coast in the name of the Emporer overseas. May his spirit be with our endevours.

JMarks · June 27, 2002, 23:54

And the map!

Viking adventurers have set out for the interior of continental Vinland for glory and profit.

For the duration of these explorations, we propose a Non Agression Pact to the Irish and a line of division along Sven's River (St. Lawrence).

Case · June 28, 2002, 06:31

Brave Irish warriors have slaughtered several bands of natives.

The Irish government agrees to the Vking proposal. You stay on your side of Sean's River (the St. Lawrence) and we'll stay on our side.

The first Pheonican turn:

The glorious pheonican armies has taken upon themselves to passify the savages around our glorious colonies...

WarVoid · June 28, 2002, 19:38

It's PHOENICIAN blast it all!

And if you do not already know, I am a PHOENICIAN.

Smaug · June 29, 2002, 01:07

Vast troop movements have occured across new Rome in order to counter the threat of native raids.

War Journal of Sun Tzo

1001AD

The three jewels of the emperor's colonies are flourishing exponetially. This land has many posibilities. However, barbaric warriors were seen on the outskirts of one of our eastern fortresses in the great mountain range. I shall go meet them and try to communicate the phathomless mercy of our Emperor overseas.

Before I set out to east, I ordered the colony's junk fleet south to explore the coastline.

Leif Erikson's Journeys

We have occupied a longhouse settlement of the Algonquins as a base for further expansion into the heart of Vinland. Our ships have begun a slow trek along Sven's river.
