History of the World 4.0

Rasputin · September 28, 2003, 18:02

As the mists of time cleared upon the world below, The Great Raz looked down and was pleased with what he saw. Many great oceans had been formed and the land masses had raised and produced much good forrests and tundra and plains of grass.

Rivers were flowing and the pheasants and buffaloes were in place.

Out of the distance came the rumbling of thunder and the nomadic herds of the deserts gathered together to have their first pow-wow. The apparent leader of them made many gestures and pointed in many directions, suddenly another stronger meaner nomad stood up and made more grunting and pointing, with much waving of his arms.

Then without warning the two were locked in battle and the dust flew as they rolled across the desert floor. The remaining nomads all watched waiting, puzzled by all this activity. Never before had this occurred, they were a peaceful calm group of men and women. But this fraccas was changing things.

The two battling giants suddenly stopped moving and the Stronger meaner of the two stood , succesful, he grinned and pointed to the now motionless figure on the ground, he made more grunts and pointed again. He set off in the direction he had pointed and the nomads al lfollowed him.

Later that evening a strong wind blew across the desert and as the dust began to settle on the stiff corpse, a bright light emerged. With first what seemed like just a movment of the shadows , but then with more apparent realism, the corpse began to move. First stretching the fingers and then the arms , finally the legs moved and the corpse rolled over and stood up, no longer a corpse but a living being again.

The Great Raz looked down and smiled, "yes this one will do he said"
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Time passed and the wandering nomads again and again split till there were 7 distinct bands and they continued to disperse from one another spreading in all directions. Some came to mighty oceans and there they formed humble but able canoes and set forth. Many lives were lsot making these crossings. Others found more deserts but still others found fertile lands and the nomads slowly settled into the regons they were in.

Much time passed and due to lack of true speech or any form of writing, the past was soon forgotten and each tribe beleived themselves to be the only living soles in the world. The World to these tribes was just what they could see in their own backyard, no more no less. No other existence was needed.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Back in the desert the Great Raz himself descended and touched the now revived man. He annointed him to be his servant to be the instrument of his will. This man would one day fulfill the goals and plans of the Great Raz. The Great Raz made shelter for the man and used his will to call forth a female of the species for his chosen one. He annointed them both and then left in a dust cloud.

He smiled to himself as he looked down, "yes" he thought, " My plans are now begun, once again!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

As time passed the newly annointed ones did multipy and grow and became nomads thmesleves. Their homelands were the deserts of old. Long ago abandoned by the other nomads, so long ago that the other nomads had completly forgotton this area. But all that was about to change. For now was officially the beginning of time as we know it, Now was the beginning of The HISTORY of the WORLD................................

Ecthy · October 2, 2003, 04:56

I see the MP section is as spammy as it has always been

Anyone fancy a dipgame with a dipnewbie? I'd play rather un-diplo, but still, it'd be an honour to you guys

OzzyKP · October 2, 2003, 09:19

ssshhh, everyone quit spamming the story thread. Keep game set up comments to the "Eager to Return" thread. Leave this one clear until the game starts and we can start posting stories.

Ecthy · October 2, 2003, 09:38

Sorry, didn't realise this was the story thread

Rasputin · October 2, 2003, 10:26

Rasputin · October 6, 2003, 00:38

The Great Raz looked upon his people and smiled , he was very pleased. His people would be known as the "people of the desert" but he already foresaw the future and saw his people transforning the desert and blossoming to become the greatest of all time.

He knew that the other gods of the worlds would be placing their people in better lands but The Great Raz loved the Desert, it was his home. It was where his begginings were.

And as the sands of time began to flow through the hourglass he put it into the minds of his people to build their first homelands.....

And so history begins ..... AGAIN.....

The Azande are coming to Earth in the HOTW 4.

Know this sign:

deity · October 7, 2003, 03:13

For, in time, all of Earth will know it...

deity · October 7, 2003, 03:17

deity travelled far this time.

He found a struggling planet with little sign of human life and decided to try out the Azande experiment.

Where should he impregnate this planet with his super-natural abilities?

deity · October 7, 2003, 03:23

A dark, dense area came into view. An area of jungle, mountains, great rivers and lakes. Perfect.

Know this place:

deity · October 7, 2003, 03:25

Central, dark, brooding...

drake · October 8, 2003, 13:26

You crazy crazy people!!!!

I miss this ****. What can I say. Chris said he got an invite from Ozzy. I dont think hes up for it, but hell, despite my insanely busy schedule, I MIGHT be.

Whats the proposed rules, day, map, starting date, etc?

-----------------------

Damn you Paul Keating and your lies! As he could see as he and his dark armies ravished S.A., the Zulus were NOT building an army to take on the Aussies on that continent! Poor poor murdered Zulu settlers, brutally destroyed like animals by the merciless, un human Aussie forces. Even the rebels who took up arms and fled to the jungle were rounded up and destroyed by the heartless huns of Australia.

The true evil in the world was the unit stockpiling, war mongering Aussies! Even the treachery that was performed by the Israelis on the helpless Mali paled in comparison to the savagery that Keating displayed.

Does Keating know what Karma is?

DRAKE!!! Welcome. I'm very glad you caught wind of the game and came by. I don't think I had your contact info. We'd love to have you in. All of us are on the same big ass land mass, so no player is all on his own building up an army away from the rest of the players.

It should be an awesome game. I wish Prom didn't drop out, then we'd have almost a complete HOTW2 roster, but getting you in would be great.

All the game specs are in the thread "Eager to Return" here is the link: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...threadid=97950

It seems President Keating mistakenly believed, or deliberately lied to the Australlian people that the Zulus were creating deadly weapons to attack Australlia and its allies. Using this justification the militarily superior Australlians with little advance warning and no formal declaration of war invaded and in a short time conquered all of Zulu South America. Only to find out after it was all over the supposed weapons did not exist.

Damn, now I understand where Bush gets his foreign policy....Lets play nice in HOTW4.

Treachery? I see the Mali propaganda machine has blinded the whole world to the truth of the situation. They attacked the Israelis whose leader had nothing but peace on his mind. This totally unprecipitated act of terrorism worried the peaceful Israelis so they had no choice but to defend themselves militarily. Every step of the way the Israeli leader requested a peace treaty, but there can be no peace without security. The brutal Mali had nothing on their mind other than continued war and refused peace at every turn. It is the Mali who were the treacherous ones.

Heh, now I see where Sharon gets his foreign policy. Jeeze, us civers wield an enormous amount of influence in this world.

But anyways, we are all pretty much spamming this thread. See Raz, I knew it was way too early to start a story thread. The set up thread is Eager to Return so lets keep our out of character comments over there.

deity · October 9, 2003, 02:05

Hey, welcome Zulu warlord

Long time bro... I knew what you were planning though, just like Saddam - it was only a matter of time before you did to me what I did to you. I have intelligence to prove it...

deity · October 9, 2003, 02:06

Why aren't my pics showing up?

Rasputin · October 9, 2003, 18:48

hope the pics thing gets fixed soon, we will be posting lots of pics to keep the stories real....

If any mods or such like read this, is there a problem with images ???

Rasputin · October 10, 2003, 05:42

apparently some major probs with apolyton right now. I noticed a long thread in the community sextion where lots of people having similar probs so hopefully will be fiixed shortly ... (Fingers Crossed)

Rasputin · October 10, 2003, 17:07

ok for those experinecing problems with images not showing and links not working, try changing your forum style to one of the "ULTRA _ SPECIALS" , at least this gives the ability to see the lovely pics deity has posted

Rasputin · October 12, 2003, 01:03

The Great Raz looked down upon his selected people and annointed his first great leader from amonsgt them. His name was John Howard.

John Howard looked round at the rabble presented to him and looked round at the desert he found himself in and promplty started t ocry.

With tears billowing down his face he yelled out "

"Why oh Great Raz do you choose me, how do i get to be great and famous with this crap you hav edealt me"

"But Johhny I am with you, all things are possible"

" No i cant do it, I refuse to do it " little Johhny cried.

"But you must Johnny you are the selected one"intoned the Great Raz

"You cant make me, nad besides i am missing the ancient Holy Discs"

"You hav elost my discs " said the Great Raz , starting to get angry. " I entrusted those to you you fool"

"Well i havent lsot them as such, sort of misplaced them. But anyway, I cant lead this people with out them"

"True, true," muttered the great raz, but then he smiled" But there is always the Great Holy No-CD Crack"

"Never. nevr would I use tha t oh Great Raz, no no no , it wil lnevr work with our version of the truth"

And it was true no matter how hard the Great Raz tried, he couldnt get Little Johhny to lead his people, and so he destroyed little Johhny and caused it to happen that a Sub be put in his palce.....

I will be back , said the great raz , and disappeared

deity · October 12, 2003, 05:06

The Azadine proliferate...

The Great Raz was not home when we knocked on the door so we greeted the Art of War emmisary with gifts of Pottery... peace was agreed and an alliance was subsequently negotiated.

The Azadine came out of the great jungles of Africa and took the best advantage of this alternate History of The World!

More... later... but deity is pleased with the Azadine breed and their secret...

The agreed border with the Raz Egyptians...

deity · October 12, 2003, 05:17

.. did deity set down his new people.

They ventured into the dark jungles and bred a fearsome warrior!

But there was some trouble in the Azande culture. The Western Azande developed a mystical culture and lived on the banks of the Uele River. They did not readily build cities so it was unclear as to their whereabouts.

The Eastern Azande, to become knowen as the Azadine, built great cities after discovering beautiful grasslands, lakes and forests. Eventually the sea was reached and the leader of the Azadine could only wonder. His God had left him now. deity was off building new civilsations on far planets.

Who was this leader?

And, what of the Western Azadine?

...

Rasputin · October 12, 2003, 05:18

The Great Raz , again descended to the desert realms and looked upon his people, from amongst them all he chose a new leader, one called Tutankhamen.

He bestowed upon the charge of all his peoples and then once again disappeared.
