Little Raven
On Walkabout
Out of the chaos of the random number generator comes a new saga. A story of heroes and villains, patriots and traitors, written in the blood of those unfortunate enough to challenge destiny and lose. The dream of Baleog is now a reality, and all shall tremble before the might of......PERSIA!!!!
4000 BC Persopolis is founded on a river next to rich grasslands and dark jungles. In doing so we absorb a minor tribe, which pays us tribute of 25 gold.
3500 BC Alas, a clumsy milk cow starts a terrible fire in the capitol which rages unchecked for days, destroying all imperial records! (translation: word crashed on me) But fortunately, not too much has happened. One warrior has been produced and is scouting to the north, where he has discovered little except sea and sand. Another will be produced soon to scout the south. Our worker is building a road to an incense deposit located near Persopolis. Our wise men research iron working, but it is very slow going.
3450 BC Another warrior is produced and sets off into the untamed southlands, discovering gold-laden hills and imposing mountains.
3350 BC To our north is a HUGE desert. To the south we see jungle and mountains. Not exactly the ideal conditions, but we must do what we can with what we have.
3250 BC The friendly Assyrians have been contacted! Though they are but a minor tribe, they still have secrets to share, and give teach us of the Warrior Code
3200 BC Our people have incense! That should help counter the fact that we have no temples.
3150 BC Our northern patrol discovers the English across the Barrens. We buy Pottery and Ceremonial Burial for 55 gold. They also have Alphabet, but we have nothing to offer for it.
3100 BC One of our southern scouts finds ivory next to the sourthern coast. The good news is that we appear to have no neighbors to the south. The bad news is that the southlands are not large. Though not quite as hostile as we once thought, they will not provide a great deal of breathing room. With the Barrens and the English to the north, and the ocean to the south, expansion may be difficult.
3050 BC Our northern scout disturbs a large nest of hairy Bavarians! He is badly outnumbered, but fortunately he is on a mountain .
3000 BC HAH! Our warriors are victorious, and gain veteran status! Hail to Persia! However, this glorious event signals the end of an age, for the esteemed Emperor Raven must now step down. While the empire is still limited to only one city, a settler will be produced almost immediately. Roads have been constructed to a couple of potential city sites. It will be for Baleog to decide where the second city goes.
Unfortunately, I cannot post a screenshot at this time. I still haven't gotten a webpage going and I can't get the image size small enough to attach. I may be able to remedy this in the near future. I hope so. Until then, here's the savegame. Good luck, Baleog!
