Divine Intervention V: Montezuma's Madness

@ the gods

Just so everyone knows...
Spoiler My plans for editing... NFTE :

Let Monty keep his trebs... but kill every other unit in the stack
add 2 barb trebs with the same promotions
Add a GG or two for killing vicky and gilgamesh

Again, I'll wait to implement these in case I get better ideas.
 
Tracnar watched as cities were burned and their people slaughtered. He tried to help, raise a wall of ice, gaping canyons, but Nihli's power somehow was upon them, and prevented the god of Aether from acting to save lives. Only when the battle was done, and the greatest civilization on the planet was wiped out, could Tracnar ensure that it could never happen again.

----------------------

It was cold and windy when the messenger came to Montezuma, he was standing in front of his proud troops who invaded Uruk, the monsters who raped and pilliged the glorious city of the Sumerians.

He said it was urgent and The Leader of the Aztecs allowed him to approach.

"My king, word has reached the palace that, well....the copper mines in Aztec are ummm melting." Montezuma looked strangly at the young messenger, "that's not all, a raven flew in from the English holdings, the iron mines have melted as well."

Montezuma knew who was responsible, a god who refused to take action against the lives of people, but would alter the land to stop him, Tracnar

-------------------------------

Tracnar felt more free then he had since the days of Greece, he flew across the sky, Aether falling into the ground and destroying the metals of Aztec, nowhere could Montezuma go to make advanced weaponry, he would have to go across the sea to find it. Tracnar stopped over a small city near the southern end of the continent, and raised mountains, cutting off the citizens from the savagery of the Aztecs. Over Aztec lands themselves, a calming power was felt, The Tree spirit protected these lands, but no longer in the woods of copper, Montezuma had cleared the forest for mines, Tracnar destroyed the copper.

Returning to his Aetherian pocket, The God of Aether could not help but to think, how many enemy's he might make to protect the world, so far he could count Montezuma and Nihli among them, Tracnar must think of allies, or he might not see peace lasting.


Spoiler changes(you may look Try) :

Removed ALL copper and iron from Monty's continent, in the long run, not a big deal....but he does not get macemen, but what would he have used it on...
raised mountains in the south protecting a barb city
added fallout on some non forested tiles for flavor...see if you can find my frowny face
 
Got it. :)
 
A storm grew around the lands the Aztec called home. The miners already had come home with stories of how everything had just started melting in front of their eyes, rumours now circulated over mysterious poisonous clouds that ruined the land.

In the meanwhile the fishing boats at sea noticed something else beside the cold harsh rain, fish. Normally the nets would be filled with one or two lost fish, but now besides the clams where dozens of fish and crab. Rejoiced they thanked Aquaris for this gift. Quickly they set sail for home.
As the last of the fishing boats arrived in port a thunderous sound was heard coming from the deep ocean. At first nothing seemed to happen but then the sea started to withdraw itself. Was this the work of Nihil? Punishing the Aztecs for doing Aquaris' bidding?

The first messenger arrived at the palace.
"Oh great Montezuma, ruler of all, the fishermen have found fish and crab in our seas where there were none before."

Shortly after a second messenger arrived at the palace.
"Oh great Montezuma, ruler of all, the seas have withdrawn!"
...

"Mommy! Look the sea is coming back!"

A blue wall was visible on the horizon, slowly coming closer, or at least it looked slow. The people looked with a mixture of fear and astonishment at the oncoming sea. But before they truly realized what was going on, it was too late. A towering wall of water, surpassing even the highest of temples was upon them. The rain lasted throughout the night and continued the following morning.

At dawn a messenger rushed in to the throne-room.

"Oh great Montezuma, ruler of all, I bring news from London. Last nights storm has washed away the land and brought the sea inland, it even created a river."

A second messenger came rushing in, looking strikingly similar to the first.

"Oh great Montezuma, ruler of all, I bring news from Nottingham. Last nights storm has washed away nearby land and brought the sea inland."

As a third messenger came in, Montezuma grew tired. Had he not done Aquaris bidding? What was this nonsense?!

"Oh great Montezum-..."
"LET ME GO! I DEMAND TO SPEAK!"

A man his clothes ripped and anger on his face struggled to get in.

"MY FAMILY, MY VILLAGE IT IS ALL GONE! IT IS ALL YOUR FAULT! YOU AND YOUR PERVERTED GODS!"

Spoiler The events explained :
Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of three extra coastal cities! Not only that they have access to seafood and your capital even has access to all!

Spoiler The price :
Just a bit of land and a small village, you didn't need them anyway, did you?


In the rain a woman's voice could be heard.

"Great Montezuma, proud Aztecs. You have done well. So I have given you the blessing of the sea. You must all become proud sailors, for this I have given you the food needed to build the boats needed and the ports to sail them from. Move quickly as you are behind. In the east you will find the path to new lands, untouched by the hands of evil Gods. Here you will find the metals to start the Aztec war-machine once more. I will watch over you and protect you on my waters. Now set sail for I will be watching.

...
Spoiler So you don't read it right away, free for all to read. :

And don't worry about the monster in the lake, I am sure he will be of help to you in the future.


Spoiler The Mission :
Have at least 6 ships by the end of your turn.
No other changes; aquaduct + Hanging Gardens bonus still stands. Defy Nihil by not doing his quests, but you are free to conquer anyone you feel like. So you don't necessarily have to do the exact opposite of what he says, as long as it doesn't conflict with my quests. I might give an update, depending what the other Gods do. :)



Spoiler What I did, NFTE (of course) + a request. :

  • Made London, Notthingham and Teothinacan in to coastal cities.
  • Created a river near London.
  • Gave the other civs a tireme for every coastal city they have.
  • Created three ways east of Monty's continent to reach the other continent. (Coastal squares.)
  • Created a fort in the ice south of the Spanish called 'Seaside".
  • Gave Issabel a GM named 'The Admiral'.
  • Build barracks in all the Spanish cities.
  • Spread Jewism to all Spanish cities.
  • Replaced desert with grassland in Spain.
  • Added land with forest and hills south of Izzyland.
  • Added oil in, you guessed it. :D
  • Removed some ice south of Espagnol.

As for the request, I would be most pleased if the mighty Gods would leave Spain alone for now. I need it for my future plans. :mischief:


The last thing is a small extra to the story, it is NFTE, sorry Trynth ;).
Spoiler :
Meanwhile, somewhere else. "My queen all has been done as you have commanded. The Aztecs have received their 'gift'." "Ah very well. Little do they realize that one must remove land to add it somewhere else. Are our people prospering?" "Yes, your majesty. All is well." "Excellent."

/For story purposes the other Gods may do with this information what they want. But please don't start yelling "TRAITOR!" just yet :P You can of course tell in the sense of 'Aquaris is not what she seems.' But you probably understand I don't want Trynth to realize just yet that I am not really helping him.

Got it :) :)
 
Lizardmind had a plan.

The time of ascension was near.


Gecko Greentail had been sent by the Lizardmind to watch over Warbloodmontezuma while the Lizardmind’s conscience was spreading the Jungle on other continents. The Gecko wandered through the halls of the Warmblood’s palace, It was time to tell the Warmblood what the Lizardmind had done.

“Greetings, most wise Leader of the Aztec nation.” (Gecko Greentail had mastered speech better than most)

“Lizardmind, your Aztecian has improved” Said the Warmblood.

“I am not the Lizardmind, I am just his representative. He has sent me to tell you of your reward.” Said Gecko Greentail “He has granted you a Palace in Techenhuan. You now have access to the central temple of the Jungle, it brings in much wealth. But also you may not move any one in apart from yourself. You may only build what is already being built. You may not relocate Lizards and you can not send workers in. Lizardmind has also provided you with an amazing gift for defending our homeland. It has bountiful Seacoldblood Recourses. Use It Well. The Lizardmind also tells me to inform you that what he said earlier about the sacred trees is still in effect you must chop down at least 1 wood. The Lizardmind also wishes you biuld a great building to show your dedication, any kind will do. Also I am now the Lizardmind’s official representative on this court. You should treat me like you would a God.”

When Montezuma turned around from the Lizardmind envoy, he was surprised by the tall Jester Perpentach.

"Home from far away, another snake in my boot,
I must warn you, dealing with ladies is moot,
they are blind to inspiration and godly speech,
so here I am again, again within aztec reach.

So come to me for sound advice,
though it may come at a price,
I promise to be nice and all,
I have one request, very small:

When you stumble upon a female on a distant coast,
who of her divinity will boast,
teach her a thing or two about how men are,
teach her a thing or two about war!"
 
@ Diamondeye - NFTE:

Spoiler :
Oh, stupid Izzy... using her Great Artist on an useless culture bomb! :p
 
That reminds me...

Spoiler CCRunner eyes only (changes, other gods, please don't look! :

I said don't look, other gods!
Spoiler CCRunner :
If Shaka and Izzy knows eachother (and can reach each other), have Shaka DoW her. If not, create some barbs that can take a couple of her cities.

Give Gilgamesh a great artist in Uruk, named "Inspired".
 
Story to be edited in afterwords.

(If I forget, they're dissidents. If you conquer them, treat them nicely.)
 
The Save is wrong.

Robert Can't, it seems to be the wrong save. Or at least my changes aren't there any more. So either you posted the wrong save or used the wrong save. Anyway we should correct it before continuing. :)
 
sorry I'll try again
 
This is the new one.

NoDot. You'll have to do yours again.
