AND THIS TIME I WILL REMEMBER TO SAVE! :wallbash:

For those who do not know, I had a story that was called Julius Caesar: A Comedic Tale. So, what happened to that brilliant story that saved and enriched billions of lives? Well... I didn’t save it. That’s why I have the BIG reminder at the top.

I chose my leaders this time, I just chose them for sentimental reasons, or just because they were mental. If you like surprises, don’t click on the spoiler. It will spoil the leader choices.

Spoiler :
In no particular order:
Gandhi: simply because I am a big fan and he is the most pacifistic CIV leader.
Genghis Khan: because of my (failed) DI game, and because of Mad scientist’s RPCs
Brennus: because he has been in most of my games (and victim of many, many first rushes :lol:)
Jao II: Who doesn’t like the crazy Portuguese REXer? Alexander apparently :lol:.
Isabella: EVIL HEATHENS! The most famous Religious Fanatic, she had to be in.
Rangar: The agressive Viking. Tying the most warmongerish warmonger title with...
Shaka: He’ll kill us all! :run:
Sitting Bull: Because he is the most defensive Protective leader, if used correctly...
Montezuma: Good ol’ crazy Monty! He’s completely insane! :crazyeye:
Charlemange: He was my only ally in Genghis Khan RPC. Maybe he will be my friend in this one. Until I kill him, of course. :backstab: :mwaha:
Juilus Caesar: Because he was the person I played as in the last one, of course!
Wang Kon: For the very, very, VERY unfortunate name.
Catherine: I like you. No I don’t! Yes I do! :backstab:
Gilgamesh: I know someone who says Garumgamesh a lot. It’s apparently from a YouTube video. I think it sounds like Gilgamesh.
Tokugawa: The crazy isolationist, this is a must if you are playing a loony game.
Lincoln: I played him in my first internet game. I killed hims first in my DI. I bet he would of turned up in the first Comedic Tale if I had continued. :(


Oh yeah, the settings:

Warlord (Noob Alert! If I do noobish things, you know why!)
Pangea
Time and Domination are turned off

Restrictions (for me):

Must go for Conquest
No Vassals: I left them on, but I won’t take any. That means that I need to kill all 17 leaders. Wish me luck!

I will update sometime today/tomorrow/the day after tomorrow (bit of an average film :yawn: )

For those of you that don’t want to read through the random rants of Honour vs. Honor (HONOUR WINS!), plz stop the spam and other random stuffs, here’s the chapter list:

Chapter 1: The creation of Greece
Chapter 1 Part 2
Chapter 2: Invasion, Religion and Expansion
Chapter 2 Part 2
 
@All: I’ll update this eventually, but I like long updates and they take a long time to write. And you can all be in the story.

@Southernking & Yoshiegg, what position do you want to be?
 
Update on the update.

As I have incredibly long updates (see my first Comedic Tale), this will take awhile to finish the chapter. I have started, but I won’t be able to do any on the weekend. I hope I can finish it next week.

:D
 
Sorry about this. Photobucket is being a @##$%#@$, so this might take even LONGER than expected.

Hopefully this won’t turn into a PoU situation. :lol:
 
Or a CYOA situation.

*Looks at Yoshi*
 
a sequel! If people can be in it can I be your clumsy Diplomat/Forgein Advisor?
 
Ok mosh it's worn off now.

I'll be a scientist!

a sequel! If people can be in it can I be your clumsy Diplomat/Forgein Advisor?

Sorry guys, not this chapter. I’ve written most of it so adding you in will require a re-write. Definitely the second chapter though.

Sorry :(
 
ok, next chapter then.
 
CHAPTER 1: THE CREATION OF GREECE

Narrator: Well, I’m back again. That’s right. Me, the man who knows (almost) too much. And yes, I’m so awesome that I can use brackets in speech. Now, who am I annoying this time. ALEXANDER!
Alexander: Shut up about your stupid and weird rants about how we’re all living in a story, that’s just insane. I mean, we’re all living in the real world here.
Narrator: :rolleyes:
Alexander: We are, right? RIGHT? Anyway, who cares about what you think.
Yoshiegg: Are you ready for your speech sir?
Alexander: Yep. Now I all want to thank the ...

(Gives long speech about how important we all are, and blah blah blah.)

Alexander: ...We are the greatest civilisation on Earth!
(Alexander looks at the crowd, which consists of a tree stump and a ferret.)
Alexander: Where is everybody?
Yoshiegg: Sir?
Alexander: What?
Yoshiegg: Athens is in the other field.
Alexander: :facepalm:

(Later...)

Alexander: General Omega, have you organised a scouting party?
Omega: Yes I have!
Great Eagle: Great Eagle will soar to the challenge of helping you, oh great chief.
Alexander: Um ... he doesn’t look very Greek.
Narrator: I agree. It’s strange how the scouts for most of the civilisations look Native American. It’s a bit odd.
Alexander: Hum. Why don’t you shut up before I rip your face off?
(Narrator throws his hands in the air.)
Alexander: Anyway, what going on with science Sothernking?
Southernking: What do you want to research?
Alexander: Lets’ get some metals to build spears so we can kill stuff!
Southernking: There is some metal we are experimenting with, but we can’t see it.
Alexander: How can you experiment with something you can’t see?
Southernking: ...I don’t know ...
Narrator: There’s lots of strange illogical things in this game. You just have to get used to them.
Alexander: Another strange thing illogical thing is why you don’t shut up! Do you want to have no face?
Narrator: No, I don’t want to look like Ghadaffi, I mean :D.
Alexander: I give up. :(

From Issue One of the Patriot Magazine:

Alexander’s Information About the World (Yeah!)

The Narrator: The narrator is an annoying, stuck up lunatic who thinks we are in some sort of game being played by giant people. If you see him, punch him in the face.

BREAKING NEWS!:
Our wonderful, godlike despot Alexander has enslaved a bunch of tribesmen. Even though that disgusting Narrator, who is lower on the food chain than bird poo, says that we cannot enslave anyone until Bronze Working and that we just popped a worker from a hut, we have enslaved them! They are going to chop down trees, build mines, cottages, farms and do lots of other awesome stuff!

Next Issue: Eleven out of ten people say that Alexander is better than sex! Our experts tell us why.

Omega: Sir!
Alexander: :sleep:
Omega: WAKE UP!
Alexander: Not now! I mean, I’m listening.
Great Eagle: Great Eagle has found a Lady King!

Isabella: Her most righteous majesty, Isabella, beloved of God and protector of the faith, does condescend to greet you, Alexander. Do tell me, are you a righteous people, or are you fiendish heathens who need to be wiped off the face of this fair land?
Alexander: I choose option two. :joke:
Isabella: FIENDISH HEATHEN!!! (Isabella pulls out two knives and jumps on Alexander, and puts one against his neck.)
Alexander: Relax! I was only joking!
Narrator: Didn’t you see the smily?
Isabella: Buddhism is not a joking matter. (She pulls her knife off Alexander’s neck.)
Alexander: Who is this Buddha?
Isabella: You do not know of the holy Buddha? He can forgive you for that. One day I will show you and the rest of the world his holy message of love and peace. Then we will rip off the heads of the foolish heathens who refuse his message and put them on a stick as an offering to the great Buddha!!! :mwaha:
Alexander: Right...See you later! (Waits until she walks away.) Phew! I hope there aren’t any more leaders that insa...
Great Eagle: I found a Big Khan Chief! He lives close to us!
Screenshot2011-02-12at54132PM.jpg


Genghis Khan: Welcome, oh leader of the Greek Empire. My horde can beat your horde any day of the week. Shall we be friends or enemies?
Alexander: Friends, of course. But you are wrong. MY horde is better than YOUR horde.
Genghis Khan: No, MY horde can beat YOUR horde.
Alexander: No, my horde is better!
Genghis Khan: No, MY HORDE!
Alexander: MY HORDE!
Genghis Khan: MY HORDE!
Alexander: MY HORDE!

(24 hours later)

Genghis Khan:MY HORDE!
Alexander: MY HORDE!
Genghis Khan: MY HORDE!
Alexander: MY HORDE!
Narrator: Because the reader will become greatly bored if you continue any longer, why don’t we just say that both your hordes are equal?
Alexander: I’m okay if you’re okay.
Genghis Khan: Sounds good.
Alexander: Anyway, I’ve noticed that we live nearby each other.
Genghis Khan: So?
Alexander: That means we can be the best of friends.
Genghis Khan: :D

From Issue Three of the Patriot Magazine:

Alexander’s Information About the World (Yeah!)

Mongolia and Mongolians: Mongolia is a nearby country filled with lots of gold. We hate them so their leader, Genghis Khan, is public enemy #1. They think we are their allies when we really hate their guts. If you see a Mongolian, laugh at him for being ignorant then attack him with a brick.

BREAKING NEWS!:
Alexander the brilliant has made a new and improved scouting squad! It is made up of Great Eagle’s scouting squad, an Enslaved Caveman squad and an Enslaved Tribesmen squad (that stupid Narrator thinks that we popped them from something called a hut. Stupid fool.)

Next Issue: “Alexander saved my cat.” Local housewife tells all.

Southernking: Sir! We have discovered Bronze Working, which will allow us to build a deadly army! A source of bronze is near our borders!
Alexander: EXCELLENT! Build a city there at once.
Yoshiegg: Already done
Alexander: :D

Omega: Sir! Another leader has been found!

Screenshot2011-02-12at54622PM.jpg


Lincoln: Greetings, Alexander. I am Lincoln. It is indeed an honour (OT: THIS IS HOW YOU SPELL HONOUR PEOPLE!) to meet you.
Alexander: Whoa, Lincoln, you seem pretty stressed there. Are you okay?
Lincoln: It’s not easy being the president of the USA you know. There’s elections every four years, the senate keeps blocking stuff and don’t get me started on those damn Confederates.
Narrator: But it says that you are a despot in your diplomatic window. And there are no Confederates in this game. :p
Lincoln: ...You ... :mad:
Alexander: Don’t worry, he does this to everybody.
Narrator: Hey, just doing my job.
Lincoln: ...Annoying people is your job??!
Narrator: Yep. It pays well to.
Alexander & Lincoln: :faint:
Omega: Another leader!

Screenshot2011-02-12at54802PM.jpg


Catherine: Well hello there, Alexander. It is a pleasure to meet you at last! I’m always looking for CLOSER relations with other leaders, if you get my drift ...
Alexander: No, I don’t get your drift.
Catherine: Fine, I’ll tell you. (Whispers in Alexander’s ear)
Alexander: :eek::wow::faint:
Narrator: That definitely wouldn’t have gotten past the Civfanatics auto censor.
Alexander: I would make a witty remark to counter your annoying tendencies, but I’m stunned. I want those images out of my head. :cry:
Catherine: :smug:
Omega: Yet another leader!
Screenshot2011-02-12at55303PM.jpg


Jao II: Congratulations, Alexander! At last your explorations have led you to me!
Alexander: What’s so great about you?
Jao II: I do a great chicken burger!
Alexander: Yum!
(Jao II goes into the kitchen and cooks chicken burgers.)
Jao II: Here we are! One thousand chicken burgers!
Alexander: ONE THOUSAND CHICKEN BURGERS!!? But that’s excessive!
Jao II: There’s more of it, therefore it’s better! You should see how many cities I have!
Narrator: But those 1-pop cities will be terrible for your economy.
Jao II: Yeah, but it’s bigger, so it’s better!
Narrator: LIKE THIS TEXT!!?
Alexander: What text?
Narrator: :sad:
Omega: ZOMG theres so many leaders!!!

Screenshot2011-02-13at93409AM.jpg


Tokugawa: Welcome, Alexander! May your empire flourish and grow for as long as it remains useful to us! I mean that sincerely.
Alexander: That’s good to know. (Offers Tokugawa a handshake.)
Tokugawa: GAH! Don’t touch me! (Jumps back comically far)
Alexander: Why?
Tokugawa: I dunno, I just don’t like it.
Alexander: :rolleyes:

(Later...)

Yoshi: Sir! Toynbee has made a list of The Wealthiest Civilisation of the World!
Alexander: Where are we?
Yoshi: ...eight. Out of eight.
Alexander: WHAT?!!

From Issue Six of the Patriot Magazine:

Alexander’s Information About the World (Yeah!)

Toynbee: Toynbee is a stupid idiot who thinks that we are poor! We are the richest nation on the Earth!* He is public enemy number two (under Genghis Khan)! If you see him, punch him in the face with GOLD knuckle-busters, to prove how wrong he was about our wealth.

*Findings found by the Greek Nation’s Biased Unbiased Scientists. Don’t judge us.

BREAKING NEWS!:
Our first Phalanx squadron has been formed! They are the most fearsome warriors on the Earth! We reckon they could take Mongolia by themselves, but Alexander in his infinite wisdom says that it’s better to be safe than sorry and that we should build more troops. Support your Nation! Join the Army!

Next Issue: Genghis Khan eats babies!!! Ex-child care worker tells all.

(Later...)

Isabella: Hello Alexander! Have you found Buddha?
Alexander: No, not yet. Why have you come here?
Isabella: Because my scouts have found that our two nations are very close! Even closer than the Mongolians!
Alexander: That means we can be the best of friends.
Isabella: :D

From issue ten of the Patriot Magazine

Alexander’s Information About the World (Yeah!)

Spain: The Spanish are our closest neighbours. That evil Isabella hypnotised you to think that the Mongols are closest. For that evil offence, the public enemy list now reads:

1. Isabella
2. Genghis Khan
3. Toynbee
4. Everyone else who is not Greek.

Next issue: Isabella eats even more babies than Genghis Khan! Also, a free gift card.

Omega: Sir...
Alexander: Don’t tell me, another leader. WHY ARE THERE SO MANY LEADERS!!! :mad:
Narrator: There’s only 18. That’s the max the game allows, without mods anyway. But...
(Alexander tries to punch the Narrator in the face, but he disappears, making Alexander fall over.)
Alexander: :mad:

Gilgamesh: Welcome, puny mortal. I am Gilgamesh, divine leader of Sumeria. How can you assist me?
Alexander: Don’t you say “how can I assist you?”
Gilgamesh: NO! It is a common shopkeeping phrase, “how can you assist me?” It is like two other ones, “the shopkeeper is always right” and “hello, how am I today?” I don’t get the last one though. How is the costumer meant to know what I’m thinking?
Alexander: :facepalm:
Omega: NEXT!
To be continued. Next post.
 
CHAPTER ONE, CONTINUED

Screenshot2011-02-13at94026AM.jpg

Mansa Musa: Welcome, Alexander. I, Masa Musa, humble ruler of Mali, offer my hand to you in friendship.
Alexander: Mansa, I have to say...
Mansa Musa: Tell me, would you like to buy one of these traditional Malinese pots?
Alexander: Um...
Mansa Musa: Or one of these handcrafted Malinese peace beads?
Alexander: But...
Mansa Musa: Or one of these beautiful Malinese petunias? Lovely things.
Alexander: BUT I DON’T WANT TO BUY ANYTHING!!!
Mansa Musa: I won’t stop bugging you until you buy something. Now, are you going to buy the flower, or what?
Alexander: I’ll buy all your stock if you promise to shut up!!! :cry:
Mansa Musa: :D
Omega: NEXT!

Julius Caesar: Welcome to Rome, Alexander. Care for some salad? I made it myself.
Alexander: The last time I ate with a leader, I ended up with 1000 chicken burgers. I think I’ll pass.
Julius Caesar: EAT SALAD OR DIE!
Alexander: Okay, okay, I’ll eat your salad. (Eats salad.) YUM! That’s really tasty!
Julius Caesar: See, that was the easy way. Now that I gave you a favour, you owe me a favour. That makes us friends.
Alexander: What favour?
Julius Caesar: Me cooking you a brilliant salad.
Alexander: :sad:

(Later...)

Alexander: I’ve got to tell you something, Isabella. Guess what it is.
Isabella: That you’ve converted to Buddhism and that you will help me wipe all the heathens off the face of the Earth?
Alexander: No, it means that my army is ready to invade your country and relieve you of your life.
Isabella: :(
