Want to be in the Lost World Scenario?
Everyone wants their claim to fame. Well in the Lost World Scenario I am including certain people in the scenarios as units. If you want to be included, write a biography of yourself along with a 'mug shot' and specify what type of unit you would like to be. Make sure to work the bio around the Lost World Scenario Story.

Here is an example Snoopy's Bio followed by a part of the Lost World Story:
Personal Logs of Daniel Knowles
Codename: Sn00py
Unit: Sn00py the Engineer
Special: Treats all terrain as roads, defence 2, Population Cost 0, Shield Cost 0, Radar Ability, Detect Invisible. This unit cannot be built and is only available at start of game one time.
2058, It was Lunch time and Launch time, it was my greatest time. NAC initiates the greatest mission ever embarked of all time. I stared into the universe bound firmly into the controllers seat. Thousands, millions of thoughts rushing through my mind; Will this work? If my work fails, then what? Will I return home to my wife? Then suddenly there are multiple sounds, sounds loud enough to topple buildings,it was the anti-matter engine kicking in, sending us upwards of speeds never before seen, but it all slowly fades from my mind, as I enter a trance like state, I realise the magnitude of this mission, the importance of it, the very strength that human civilization has taken us, to this very moment, to this very height. I begin to think of all the greatest thinkers of the human time, Socrates, Davinci, Einstien, Stephen Hawking, Amah Dubiah. Am I one of them? Am I the next one? It certainly seems so from what I see around me, but I cannot compare myself to these greatests. I am just a mere man, lived an average life, average way of thinking, so why am I the one leading this mission? Why me? I shake myself out of it, must focus on the mission from now on. I check the statis of the Creator, the ships name that I gave. This was no ordinary ship, it was not just designed to get us to Mars, it was designed to do the actual job, the terraforming of Mars. I designed this ship from scratch, by myself. It was a job that only one person could do my wife told me, she said only I have the ability to complete this, you are in a league of your own, nobody will see what you see, so only you can do this. My wife, always encouraging me, the only person who understood me, which is helpful, considering the only thing I know about me is my name, Daniel! In the distance I see the red planet, it draws nearer every second. Though it feels like a day, 2 weeks had passed and I enter Mars' orbit. With a perfect landing, I begin my work. 7 months pass and Mars' atmosphere begins to change according to the computer, this of course, as Earth's fate once was, is how to make a dead planet live. Breath life into it first, then keep it alive with water. Mars will look nothing like Earth, nothing at all. What life begins to emerge here is unknown, but this is how we wanted it. We didn't want to create life that can live on this planet, which we could easily have done, but no, we decided to let life create itself, we just needed to give it a chance to grow.
2066, I just finished lunch on my new lawn. Okay, so it wasn't a lawn like on Earth, but it was Mars's wild grass. I tried cutting it as it was getting too long, but everything I have couldn't penetrate it. It was as flexible and as light as grass, but I just could not cut it. If it keeps growing I will have to move base of operations! The sky was not blue of course, but rather a strange orange, I had predicted more of a brown, but I won't argue with it. I see my wife everyday through the Unvernet, but there's nothing like seeing her in real life.
2067, Incoming Message, president Jeff Foley of NAC calls in to say Hi.
Jeff: "Daniel, you are to stop all projects and return home immediately!"
Daniel: "Jeff, what has happened?"
Jeff: "Dan, there is a meteor heading for Earth, it will hit 2071 November 1st, you must return home immediately as we need you to help protect the people!"
Dan: "What plan do you have?"
Jeff: "We plan to build stasis chambers beneath the surface, which will protect a large sum of our population, but we need you here to help build it, we also have predicted that we will awaken in the year 9031, it is by this time Earth will be livable again, but we need your expertise to understand the new terrain which we expect to encounter."
Dan: "Understood, will make a launch for Earth tomorrow morning Jeff"
Jeff: "Under and In"
Dan: "Under and In"
Next Morning, I launch for home. Wife is very happy. As I slowly and sadly leave Mars' surface, I hope that my work here is enough to get Mars breathing long enough to sustain itself. I guess if all goes well and we do survive to the year 9031, I will be able to see if Mars has grown.
I land on Earth, I immediately begin work on the stasis chamber, which is to be built under American soil.
2070. Stasis chambers complete. The beginning of the end of the beginning. I watched the sunset with my wife. All around me I see a silhouette of thousands upon thousands of people, rowed up, entering the stasis chamber one by one. My wife and I were next to enter, I turn around just before I enter the doors, I take one more look at the Earth and I bid it goodbye and to rest in peace, and I tell it not to worry, you will live again, mighty Earth.
INTRO STORY OF SCEANARIO - The Coming of the End
In the year 2004 astronomers on Earth make an astonishing discovery of a tiny planet, the 10th one of our solar system and call it Sedna. It was soon learned that one of Sednas meteor moons is on a collision course with the Earth. All of humanity braces for the inevitable. Millions flock to churches, mosques, Synagogues and temples fearing the Apocalypse the end of the world the day of reckoning. In many areas looting and rioting ran rampant as complete anarchy ensues. Governments desperately try to rally their people and in the face of certain doom and they succeed. For the first time in human history all nations put aside their differences and scramble to find a way to save what they can of humanity. Scientists work around the clock over the course of the 50 years, exploring any and all options. Eventually, a plan to create stasis chambers deep underground and scattered throughout the Earth is chosen as the best option the hope being that a few will survive. The European Union as well as all other Organizations each mobilize materials & manpower in order to undertake the creation of the stasis chambers. Committees are formed in order to select the finest people from each ethnic and cultural background. Scientists, engineers, the greatest people in humanity are selected to be frozen in the stasis chambers which are set to initiate once the environment stabilizes after the impact.
GAME STARTS HERE - The Lost World
On Sunday, Nov 1st, 2071 the 3rd meteor-moon of Sednas collides with the earth. The impact is so violent volcanoes erupt all over the Earth spewing lava and ash into the air. Massive cracks and ridges split the surface of the earth, spearing poisonous fumes to the atmosphere. Tidal waves 6800 feet high flood much of the planet and cataclysmic earthquakes turn once magnificent cities into rubble. So violent is the impact that it causes rapid movement of the Tectonic plates. Nearly all life on Earth is destroyed. A dark haze of dirt and dust blankets the skies making it so no heat escapes. The Antarctic completely melts flooding the coastlines all the way inland and what isnt flooded is quickly turned to desert from the immense heat. Over a thousand years pass until the dust finally settles, but only to expose the tremendous damage the Ozone has sustained from the impact. It is no longer able to protect the earth from the suns deadly rays. The solar radiation penetrates the skies, killing whatever remaining life that managed to survive. It continues this way for hundreds of years then thousands. It was more than 9000 years before the Earths atmosphere repairs itself and the remaining radiation dissipates, finally triggering the stasis chambers to initiate. The last of Man is brought back to life Awoken from their deep sleep they come to the surface and surprisingly find it teeming with life. Soon though, they discover this seeming paradise to be much more deadly than initially appearing. The endless years of radiation have left its mark. Much of the plants have become toxic and many of the animals have mutated in unimaginable ways. Perseverant the remaining humans push forward, eager to reclaim their Lost World. Hopeful, they seek new land trying to find the ideal place to settle, but then terror strikes... Great beasts, throw backs from an extinct age, the once mighty dinosaurs are back! Not only terrifying in looks they are also intelligent and cunning. Like a pack of wolfs, Raptors descend upon the humans. All over the world humans befall similar fates as they quickly realize for the first time they are no longer on top of the food chain. Will mankind be able to survive or is this the final chapter in their existence? At this crucial time of peril you have been chosen to lead your people. The future of mankind rides on you.
