Return to Roots NES 2

One last thing, only civilizations selected are in the game. more civilizations added will create neighbors. FOr the time toasty there is no PErsia or Greece. ALso expansion will go slowly for a while as turns will be 50 years a turn like in Civ3.

Here is the .bmp map. Please, someone upload it for everyone else to see. Oh, and EQ, please do not take offense of this, I jsut wanted to propose something.

EQ: But too add flavor to the game, can't we act like there are the Perisans and Greece, even if we are just fighting with our own nation against them? It would bring out the game and wars much better, and mroe realistic. Just like the tribes you are fighting south, you could give them the real names (I dont know what would be in Panama.. but Mayans were in the Yucatan Peninsula).

And Toasty, we have no disagreements about land in the game, just outside .

Jason, i checked out your map and it is easier for me to fill in land than continally making new territory. New map after school.

"Arya overlooked the fertile fields around Harappa,the capital of the Indians.He saw the temples,hospitals,schools,granarys,librarys and baths in the living city with its 500,000 inhabitants.He smiled and thought how impressed the barbars from the Northern forests had been when they arrived in the city to bring him presents."

"Numerous trade ships were on the Indus river flowing directly through the city and they brought and delivered goods from the people of the western mountains and even a land which called itself Punt.Suddenly Arya turned around,left the holy hill and took one of the tables his military advisor gave him. He advised him to send troops west of the Indus to fight the Paschtuns.In Mohenjo-Daro and Dscittagong on the Ganges there had recently been a population increase so the Indians now had a population of 8 million and over 300,000 soldiers.With these men he'd spread Harappan culture all over the world.But for now his empire stretched from the holy river Indus to the holy river Ganges"

Aztec Battles:

"All blood to Quetzectle (sp?), all blood to Quetzectle!" The men were singing on the way to the village of Tentizt. A huge gathering of tribes to oppose the aztecs were again arising in this village, and the Jaguar troops of Tenochtlan were sent to ease the revolt.

It was like coming out of mirkey water into the sunlight when the warriors stepped into the village, and out of the dense reinforest. The light made their eyes squint for a second, but soon they adapted as they always had. When their eyes finally were back to normal, in front of them were 500 pairs staring back. Mayan spearmen, dressed in an green, feather fassion begin an assault on the small army of 200.

The unsuspected Jaguar warriors, though the most trained and ready fighters in the empire, had little time to put up a fight. While they succeeded in killing half of the opposing army, all but one of the Jaguar warriors died, allowing this stroy to be transmitted to the High Priest (Montezuma?).

The city of Tenochtlan was in chaos after word of such veteran warriors were on their way to Tenochtlan, and forty virgins were sacrifced to insure vicotry for the defense of the city. Most of the Aztec army was on campaigns in the same area the small scouting army was ambushed, and wouldn't be able to make it back in time.

The worry was for nothing. The 5,000 men strong city defense was able to easily repel the now 500 angry mobsters. Close to no Jaguar warriors were killed in the second battle. Now the Aztec empire had control of half of the enemy territory.

Pharoh's armies of Isis and Horus were sent immedietly down to southern Europe to calm things down. Also, politicians of the Egyptian government (made up of about 3 or 4 of Pharoh's advisors) are now working on a way for a more people-oriented government.

To His Magesty and Emperor, Hammurabi of Babylon and Ur,

Oh great one between the rivers, I bring you greetings from the exalted Egyptian people of the Nile. I am aware of an Egyptian ship wreck near your borders, and am looking into the thought that perhaps there is another people out there that could pose a threat to our great kingdoms. To counter these threats, I suggest we open trade routes for our nations to become more wealthy, and to agree in a defensive deal. If you are ever attacked and outnumbered or outdone, I shall come to your aid, as should you to mine. Do we have a deal?

Great Pharoh of Thebes

Updates to timeline have been posted. When i wake up tommorrow morning (about 10:00 AM EST) i will post new map and new random events. All we need now is a story for the PErsia vs. India battle.

 

[Jason The King]

EQ: Cant you do the battle babylon vs india?

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

It was Persia vs India. Also, now that you mention it i might in about 2 or 3 hours if i am not asleep.

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

Allright then, because i have extreme writer's block (from just waking up) here is the report from India, plain and simple:

In a series of 10 major battles between Indian and Persian forces, Inida and Persia wwere in ruins from the constant fighting. Many people were forced to flee from their homes. Those who survived fleeing usually starved to death. Even India's great capitol was in ruions from a Persian attack early in the war. Eventually, however, India prevailed. A daring attack upon Persolpolis brought Persia to its knees. As part of the Peace treaty a 6th of Persian territory was given to India and a yearly tribute of silks ended the greatest war of the ancient world.

Events of c. 3700 BCE

Egypt: A form of writing to describe their world and history was invented in Thebes. Revolts continue in southern Egypt (someone might want to do a story about that). Eygptian settlers begin exploring and settling lands south and west of Egypt.

Babylon: A Babylonian trading ship meets and ship flying unkown colors. These peole call themselves Romans. Babylon Fishermen join the navy increasing its size significantly. Pirates calling themselves Phoenectians begin attack Babylonian ships.

India: Starvation troubles many throughout the Empire, many deaths. With the lousy situation at home many people begin exploring and settling new lands.

England: English people discover writing and the world's first newpaper is formed in London. The English people are almost entirely literate and are by far the smartest people in the world(this definiately does not refer to real life, where they talk funny and can't build cars, sorry to you English people, just had to put that in). Ireland seccedes from England.

Chinneese: China Wise-men discover bronze. Other Chineese tribes form a nation south of Shang China.

Aztec: Aztec Wise-Men discover bronze. War continues in the South.

I had forgotton to mention in the first post, please give me orders, such as settle new lands, expand or upgrade army or fleet, and attack a certain place.

 

[erez87]

what with china, she is at war with itself, gaining all chines areas under shang...

 

[Kennelly]

"Arya had tears in his eyes when he overlooked the ruins which had once been Harappa.300,000 dead bodies lay inbetween the burning buildings,killed by the evil Persians. The total Indian population had shrunk from 8 to 5 Million due to the war and many squaremiles of salted fields,but because of harsh conscripting methods the army had remained at 250,000 men.He seeked revenge with the Persians and knew,the day would come"

"His science advisor had told him of the new Bronze material and only with this they'd be able to defeat the Persians.He had sent 125,000 soldiers to control the newly acquired Persian territories and to defend the border.25,000 men uphold order in the remaining cities of India.The rest of the army was needed to produce Bronze weapons and utilities as well as the whole working population,even the scientists."

"But despite the devastations trade with Punt and Africans flourished and he had sent emissaries to strange people calling themselves Bablonians or Chinese.In the east his brave and adventurous people left the ruins of their foermer homes to spread Indias glory eastwards."

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

I have finished the random events for 3700 BCE, update on front page will be done once at least 2 or 3 more peiopl give orders. Here is the map of the period around 3700 BCE.

 

[erez87]

the first empror have gave his commands:
"all out army, and new built fleets will be upgraded ar ones, for a great war is coming!!"

for some new rules about new texas and conscripting of people to create a bigger army, poeple have started to go west and east, and setteld far away for not being part of the empier, but the empror have desided that thos chines should be under his rull and sented several armies to the area to gain control, the empror also reduced taxes and stoped the high numbered conscription for the poeple to stay under him, his armies returned at ones to the main areas, and the far peopel have accepted shang rull, for better lifes.
