Got the save.
EDIT: Save attached. Used the ilduce-included version.
EDIT 2: First, the spoiler. As always, not for mortal eyes.
The steady march of the elephants to assist the Madrid garrison was the most beautiful sound the longbowmen in Madrid had ever heard. With each stomp of the elephants, Madrid was one step closer to being a impenetrable city even with the Khan's horde. There was a smile on the longbowmen's faces that day. Until HE came.
He came, running down the roads, his armor shining. And with that, he began to cut down, no, mow down, every elephant rider there. These elephants were the elite of the elite, trained well in combat and formation, and yet they were helpless to him.
The Elder had finally came.
Don't let the Elder die, or they will be penalties.

Round 5: Death of Heroes
The Khan thought long and hard about the choice. In the end, he decided to take the smuggler's path, mainly because being on the run is much better than being in a prison. Genghis moved his boat towards the smuggler's path, then the world started to disappear...
...and he reappeared in Cordoba, the temporary military base for the invasion of Spain. War was standing in front of him.
"Ah," said War, "you're back."
"What's happened while I was gone?" asked the Khan.
"The Spaniards have fortified Madrid," replied War. "There is no way we can take it now."
Genghis sighed. "Get Isabella. We have to make peace."
Peace was made with Isabella, but the English still refused to talk. Also, it seems that ilduce and the Tao have made an impact on Charlemagne, making the Holy Romans and the Mongolians the only followers of the Tao.
The Leader of the Barbarian Horde/Hell Spawn had gotten his own city, called Ning-hasia.
Well, it was more like a fort with a few houses nearby. The main reason that the city had been built was to make sure that Isabella wouldn't build a city on the Eel Pass. It would be harder to get to Madrid if a city was built there.
((Also, a random but hilarious pic.
LOL! I wonder if the Barbs could win a Cultural Victory if they got three of those kinds of cities?))
Great technological strides were made in the Mongolian Empire, because of the Technological trading between the Mongolian and Holy Roman Empires,
the discovery of Machinery and more trading.
The Khan believed that they were ready for war. They had smuggled Longbow Men to Cordoba via boats and they had gotten some more Keshiks into Ning-hasia. Also, two heroes, War and the Elder, would be helping with the invasion.
The battle of Madrid was a bloody one indeed. A spy sent the city into revolt, making some of the defences useless. But Longbows and Elephants were still very powerful. The city was taken, but many of the soldiers had died. There were not many defenders.
A vicious counter attack headed by Isabella attacked two places, Cordoba and Madrid. This was a clever move, because of the siege in Cordoba, the city could not send help to Madrid. The only help that Mongolia could send to the doomed city was the hero, The Jungle Swarm.
Isabella was riding her Elephant towards Madrid. The Elephants were crushing Keshiks left, right and centre. The Elder jumped up and hit the Elephant's leg with his sword, cutting it clean off. The Elder didn't realise that he had exposed the only gap in his armour, the base of his neck, to Isabella's spear. She stabbed him there, laughing as the heathen's blood went all over her dress.
Isabella jumped off the Elephant and landed perfectly, just as the Elephant fell behind her. Isabella thanked Cull for her luck, and looked towards Madrid. War was riding towards her with two other Keshiks. She picked up a Longbow from a dead Spanish Longbow Man and aimed it at War's head. He's mine, thought Isabella. She shot the arrow and it hit straight between the eyes. The horse's eyes. War jumped off his horse and ran towards the city. Isabella picked up two machetes and chased after him.
Isabella ran up the stairs of her old palace, the last hiding point of Genghis Khan. Two Spanish Mace Men were following her as reinforcements, suddenly they were attacked by a vicious swarm of mosquitoes. Isabella picked up a torch that was on the wall and threw it at the mosquitoes. The torch burnt half of the mosquitoes to a crisp, the rest of them became disorientated and retreated down the stair well. Isabella kicked down the door that the Khan and War was hiding behind.
It happened too quickly for the Khan to react. He was standing in front of the door, then it burst open, hitting him in the head. He fell onto the floor. The last thing he saw was Isabella slamming a machete into War's chest.
He woke up in a cage, hanging off the tallest tower in Madrid. Isabella stood in front him.
"You will be an example to all who would defy the Holy Nation of Spain," said Isabella. "Mongolia will collapse without a leader. Then all I will have to do to get rid of every Heathen on this earth will to be to destroy Holy Rome, then the world will be Cullfusion!" Isabella laughed, and walked away. A sign was put up underneath Genghis's cage, it read:
Here is the Mongolian Heathen who thinks he could conquer the Holy Nation of Spain
The Khan sat down in his cage, thinking he would be doomed to stay in there forever. He looked to the left, a lion was in a cage very similar to his.
"Lion?" said Genghis "How did you get here?"
"I am not who you think I am," said/thought a voice, a female voice "I was Isabella's Lion."
"Oh," said the Khan, "Why are you in a cage?"
"I told Isabella that I served the God Nictel. She called me a demon and put me in this cage," replied the Spanish Lion "I can help you."
"How?" asked the Khan.
"I can put the lion in a position of power," she said "I just ask one thing of you. How is my brother the American Lion?"
"He is free" replied Genghis.
"Excellent." replied the Spanish Lion. Her eyes glowed golden.
John Smith was average. Boringly average, that's why he decided to join the Mongolian Army. He was American by birth, but he was a good fighter, and solider selection was in no way biassed towards Ethnic Mongolians. He was one of the defenders in Cordoba, and unlike the Madrid Assault, the Cordoba Defence had gone incredibly well for the Mongols. He was about to go to sleep, when he fell unconscious.
The Mongolian Lion was asleep and dreaming, but he knew this was no ordinary dream. He saw a female lion, she told him what to do.
John Johnson, who was only slightly less average than John Smith, walked into John Smith's room, because they were roommates.
"I am the Lion," said John Smith. "Lead me to the leader of the Barbarian Horde/Hell Spawn." His eyes glowed golden.
The Lion, who was possessing John Smith, was riding towards Madrid with the Barbarian Horde/Hell Spawn leader. Luckily, the leader of the Barbarian Horde/Hell Spawn leader believed him and they were going to attack Madrid to free the Khan. Except when they saw the defences in Madrid, they knew they were never going to be able to retake the city with such a small army.
"Send a peace message to Isabella," said the Lion. "We need to discuss peace."
Isabella was riding towards the Mongolian's peace embassy that was assembled near Madrid. With her was her most trusted advisor, the Khan (who was in chains,) and a small battalion of Horse Archers. In the Mongolian's peace embassy was a man, who looked like the leader of the Heathen Barbarians/Hell Spawn who had taken down America, with the help of the Khan. There was a small battalion of Keshiks, and a man with golden eyes. He was obviously the new leader of the Mongols, the one her spies had been talking about.
"I represent the Mongolian people," said the Lion. "We have an offer. You give us the Khan and we'll give you a promise not to attack you for ten years, plus ten thousand Mongolian Dollars per year." Isabella spoke to her advisor.
"Should we take this deal?" she asked.
"Yes," said her advisor. "If we do not give them this, then the Mongolians will kill us all. They will not be so generous with a knife at your throat."
"But they would anyway," replied Isabella.
"But if we had a ten year peace treaty," replied her advisor, "we could build up a defence. Our Mongolian invasion plans relied on the fact that there would be no strong leader to lead them and they would be in a civil war. Without that there would be no way we could destroy them, they would more likely destroy us! But give ten years, anything could happen."
"Yes," said Isabella to the Lion, "we agree to your offer."
The Lion had returned to his body, and the Khan was in charge again. The Mongols were focused on capturing Madrid, and that source of Copper.
((I also got a greed quest for the copper near Madrid, I've never got two quests in a game before. Is this normal? I also got a GS but forgot his name. I made an academy in Beshablik))
The Mongolian army was ready. They would attack tomorrow morning, but right now the Khan would sleep. Hoping that the gods would not be too angry at him for losing Madrid.
WOW
What a round!
The save will be down the bottom of the post, but firstly I must make a request. (Oh noes, not more!)
If you look closely in the National Sports League Quest pic, there is a Galleon (Or is that a frigate) a barbarian one in fact. Yes, I have had two more encounters with super advanced barbs.
A grenadier:
(BTW the longbow won, if you were interested.)
And another super advanced boat:
I thought it was just the gods having some fun, but then I saw this message, and I'm not joking about this,
The Kremlin has been built in a distant land!
NO NO NO NO!
Some one on the other continent has obviously gotten a huge empire ( with the help of unwitting gods
) and teched ages ahead of everyone else.
So I call upon the gods to make these changes:
1.) De-tech the offending Civ(s) and barbs and bring them down to my level of tech.
2.) Remove all future Wonders/Buildings/Units from the Civ(s).
3.) Resurrect any Civs killed by the offending Civ(s) and De-Vassalise their Vassals.
4.) Remove some of their cities or something so the offending Civ(s) don't retech back to their super state. I don't want to lose to a Space Race Victory before I exit the Medieval age.
I know these changes break practically every rule in DI but this is a radical situation and radical measures need to be taken.
Anyways,
Happy Editing

Un-got it.
Hmm funny story, it doesn't seem to be the work of any gods, true there is one powerhouse city on the continent which I helped create, but that's just good at throwing out wonders. And that isn't even the most powerful civ out there. The most powerful, nobody touched. The real problem is that they're practically all best mates over there. So a lot of tech trading has happened.
Though a lot of work, yes all tech and offending units/buildings can be removed but I'm afraid it won't take long for them to be far ahead of you again... The biggest problem is that the most powerful civs on the other continent like each other.
Suggestion for future DI would be not to take a continent map.

I suggested that the gods remove some cities or send some barb hordes at them, that might stop them from being super teched. It would be good if some one made them hate each other as well. Are continent maps THAT unbalanced? Gee, I'm never playing on one of those again.
