Starting Position

The sun rises on the year 4000 BC. Since time immemorial, the Merlot people have lived a nomadic life. After years of wandering, they are ready to settle down and found your first city.

Pacal II, your people have vested absolute power in you, trusting that you can build a Civilization to stand the test of time!

Your Exalted Majesty, Lords of the Imperial Court,

Our day of destiny is upon us! To join the discussion of our opening strategy, please have one of my squires escort you to the West Tower where all can take part in forwarding our fledgling nation.

Under the true leadership of King Indiansmoke the Mighty, there is no way we can fail!

Graciously,
Sir Donovan Zoi
Imperial Specialist of Merlot

Gems in the fat cross?

Gems for every civ in the fat cross...

The presumed site of our castle overlooks a beautiful field of Merlot grapes. I am sure that they shall come to symbolize our kingdom. Even though we currently aren't sure what's so great about grapes.
