Yeah the creativity here has actually been a really awesome surprise. gg Niaomeow - this was a very good idea. I'm definitely looking forward to a challenge where everybody is working in parallel to create different elements of the same world, like tarcisio suggested.

Got to agree. This was far, far too much fun, and I can't wait for the next installment!

Lol I had some ideas for the next one:
Muhammed wasn't born\ the Byzantines won the battle of Yarmouk.
Jesus wasn't born(lol).
The confederate states would've advanced to Washington after wining the battle of Bull Run.
Rabin wasn't murdered.
The Norman's lost the battle of Hastings.
The Persians won at marathon.
The 100 years war would've ended with the Treaty of Brétigny.

I think something like Jesus not being born is to broad.

You totally ignored the other ones...
(Also, India?)

I didn't know who Rabin was so I ignored him
. As for the other ones they are more acceptable (Except maybe Muhammed). In my opinion a scenario should have room for 2-4 civs or at least restricted to a certain group or 2 like French and English for the Hastings scenario. Otherwise the amount of civs that can be done becomes to broad and people just make up what's on their mind with slight modifications and the challenge aspect starts to decline.

I'd much prefer a scenario with six or seven possible civs than two or three. Gives more variety and lets people go more crazy.
Also, uh, wasn't Hastings fought between the Normans and the Saxons?

Saxons, English same thing
. Well I think there should be variety but enough to keep it somewhat challenging and ideally related. Would be weird to see China and say Argentina in a scenario that was too broad as opposed to say making several different civs but they are in the same groups like South American Natives and Iberian civs in the Inca scenario. Though in retrospect 2-4 civs is a bit too limiting.

Rabin could involve Palestine \ Israel, Yarmouk could involve Arabia, Byzantium and maybe turkey.
I think the battle of hastings is really an interesting one, and so is the bull run scenario.

My personal choice would be if Mutapa had succeeded in booting out the Portuguese in 1629 and, to use the old Europa Universalis term, managed to successfully Westernise off the back of it. =]

The scenario I was considering submitting if I were to win was "In the late 1500s, a major power from East Asia invades a non-unified Japan". That scenario has two major groups: "East Asian Power" and "Japanese Clan", but still gives a wide berth for crazy ideas and stuff.

East... Asian power?
(The most interesting scenario that I can think of is the vikings sending much larger, organized army to colonize and and conquer North America. In that scenario the native american tribes living in the coastal areas had migrated deeper into the continent. While keeping peaceful relations with most of the Vikings(who became one, organized state) their villages are constantly being raided by rough vikings and by stronger tribes from the south. So that involves 3 factions: the vikings, the southern tribes, and the northern tribes).

Like, China and Korea and the sort.
Wow... the scenario I had in mind is when the Mongols (and Goryeo) successfully invade Japan.

My scenario would have been that Vladimir the Great sends his envoys to Bagdhad instead of Volga Bulgaria and is so impressed by its opulence and wealth that he decides on Islam when it comes time to make his choice. A Muslim Russia then begins to take shape, boxing Christendom in from all sides.

My scenario was going to be based off the fact that Jakob Kettler planned to colonize Australia out of all places...
I've still not submitted my entry BTW, be prepared...

And I would use that as an excuse to make a mega-Crusade to avoid researching stuff.
