A rendition of the glorious Viking Empire circa 2550 BC:
Highlights as of chat end:
- We now have a band of archers (led by Konan) and 5 roving bands of our best Viking warriors, led by myself (
Makahlua),
OctavianX,
Nuclear Master,
Kloreep and
Ormzud. Well 3 'roving', actually; I and NM are watching the home fires at New Asgard and Valhalla and bonking the heads of the unruly
- Our last scout,
Brave Sir Robin died an honorable death exposing the lurking barbarians and giving us the position of a tribe being terroroized by them - in gratitude for their rescue, the Vandals have taught us the secret of
Mystisicm! Which was then traded to Spain + 86 gold for the secret of the rune scribbles known as
Alphabet. They have also recently discovered some odd contraption called a
Wheel as well as
Masonry which builds sturdier walls, so they claim
The elders tell me it will still be another 12 of their 'turns' before they can duplicate the Spaniard's 'Bronze Working' discovery, though.
- The barbs are so scared of us, they took a falied swipe at
Ormzud the Warrior and now cower in their camps like the little children they are
Both
Konan the Archer and
OctavianX have both also had success fending off the barbarian rabble, although only
OctavianX has earned a Veteran's helm for his warriors so far.
However we have a continuing threat, for the barbarians include one band of warriors whom ride horses
-
New Asgard has organized a band of settlers, who are headed to make a thriving fishing and trade village along the northern river(upper right of picture);
Valhalla is also organizing a band whom are set to head for the foothills of the western mountains to form a lofty city above the plains. (see the 4.5 ring plan in the '3rd viking city' thread)
The save is
here for those interested
Log to follow later.
But at least the game is in capable hands. 
, agreed , but we shall need to destroy at least one to go and see what lays behind it , .......
