Civ3 Stories & Timelines Section

One of the best in recent memory is The Culture Flip by Chingis Khan.

(Edit: got right story & URL. )

A couple more good stories, from a few months back:

The Great War by Ricobirch

Eyes of the Innocent by Grundel (He usually posts his stories over at Poly. )

Virtually anything by uknemesis. For example: Fate of the Dragon.

Shaitan's "You Decide" stories were pretty good, too. For example: Highlander Tales.

 

[Ricobirch]

Ooh, Padma I'm touched that you remembered my little story.

 

[Padma]

@Ricobirch: the good ones leave an impression.

Thunderfall, have we enough stories to Civ3 Storywriting Hall of Fame make?

 

[Chieftess]

Well, I'll be compiling the stories and putting them into a main thread.

Apolyton/The Ultimate Civ2 Site had "Viking Scribes", but we'll have: "Herioc Epics".

 

[Thunderfall]

Sorry for the delay... Life has been very busy for me lately.

Should be enough... I just hope I have the time to make the new section soon...

Not that I really read many of these tales, but Charis's 5CC was great.

There have indeed been a good number of excellent stories written and posted here, and it's a shame that there isn't any kind of recognition for them. Even Apolyton has a Hall of Fame (of sorts) for good stories, although run in a somewhat disorganized fashion at the moment. Maybe someone could be appointed to administer this forum and organize something more concrete? It's an idea; I don't know whether it would be practical or not. It should be something for the "wish list" of things to do in the future at least.

I think that this is a great idea. I've been thinking about starting a pretty detailed story here lately but I haven't had anywhere to put the darn thing.

Will we need to send them via HTML and ready to be posted?

Or shall we just create a new thread for our stories and hope that they get recommended?

what would you term "disorganized?" as?
And how would we improve?

-BTW I do think you should have your own stories contest.

Good luck with it!

BTW... That's strange. Did posts get reset sometime in the past- because I certainly had more than 1 post last time I posted here?

Correct, from the looks of your post count you had two.
