[RFC] Pharaohs, the Lords of the Sun

[Alexius08]

The Mayan story could easily be quite boring tbh. I would just fill America with cities, but I'll think about it. Feel free to give other suggestions.

I decided to dig through 12 pages of this forum and found the following RFC stories:

Could we have stories for underrepresented civs in RFC? Most of us are requesting for Mayans (with me requesting to end it in 2012), but what about Aztecs or Incans conquering whoever gets the conquistadors event (or Spain if you managed to avoid them), or India never declaring war against anyone? I can't think about a good theme for Mali, however.

Bah, i want an italian or byzantine story. THere are no storys for italy and there is only one story for the byzantine that was never finished.

 

[Yoshiegg737]

That's a useful list, Alexius

 

[Icaria909]

Try Inca. In one game, I settled all of Australia and Polynesia, vassalized a portion of the Middle East and had a giant war against an Aggressive Mongolia in the 20th century. Point is, you can do a lot with them.

Edit: Btw, Kudos Alexius

 

[christos200]

No, try italy.

 

[Gruekiller]

I second the Inca. Don't worry about the lack of Byzantine AARs - one's on my to-do list.

 

[christos200]

Thanks god.

 

[Gruekiller]

Since I'm having trouble roping in the right conditions for my al-Andalus story, I may be starting the Byzantine AAR sooner than I thought.

Do the Zulu! wow, I made a rhyme! YES! anyways, do the Zulu!

now, I know most of you are scratching your heads right now, thinking something like "WTH? Is SK insane? The Zulu aren't even in RFC!" I will leave it to y'all to figure that out

 

[christos200]

I prefer italy. Also i think SK means the natives.

 

[inohotep]

Zulu's not in RFC...

it is in abundance

and when i read that list i remembered how much i miss Pilgrim of Peking

 

[Mosher]

Zulu's not in RFC...

If you go into RFC's XML files, you can make Independents, Natives, and the Byzzies playable. I've done it before, with Krug.

 

[hoplitejoe]

You seem to have missed a native american story.....

A Zulu story would be... interesting... (with abundance)
You have even worse tech than the Native American civs at the start!

 

[inohotep]

i don't think abundance counts, the Sumeria/Isreal story isn't there either

 

[Yoshiegg737]

You seem to have missed a native american story.....

I think he skipped the Abundance Nations

 

[hoplitejoe]

But I want it to count

 

[Moshe Dayan]

I know that Zulu are Natives... but I'ts just the fact that Rhye does not have them playable... and that must be for a reason.

I think he lumped them in with the Mayans as "natives" to free up civ slots in the 600AD scenario, but I'm not sure.

 

[inohotep]

well, the zulus could represent a real civ that i feel is underappreciated, Swahili

 

[Alexius08]

I think he lumped them in with the Mayans as "natives" to free up civ slots in the 600AD scenario, but I'm not sure.

In the 600AD scenario, the Celts are replaced with Byzantium.

Nice job on a Nuclear finish!

BTW, I would love to see a Conquest game, or a Domination game without nukes (for a super challenge).
