Make it the other way around and now you're talking :p

Thats just lazy matey. Every page is 100% relevant to what is going on here. We wouldn't have to keep correcting you otherwise.

Show some initiative, and stop with the stupid questions.
 
Maybe offtopic, I don't know..

But since we're on the subject of lost colonies and such I thought I'd ask, and I think this might be a good way to improve this scenario!

Ok Vinland is a lost viking colony right? How about making 2 other "lost colonies"? Like say an Arabic colony in south america or central america and a large polynesian colony in California? I mean they were both explorers and such, and they could have founded large colonies in the americas. We'd have to give the vikings a challenge since the local indians would be an easy target for Viking ethnic cleansing :eek:

I'm sorry if this was already suggested in another of the Vinland threads I didn't see it in this one though ;)

The problem is that the Norse did settle the Vinland area, although they were wiped out after a while. The Arabs on the other hand never even discovered the New World, and the Polynesians haven't left any traces in California...

Correct.

We don't know for sure that arabs never discovered America though :p But it is highly unlikely (you will find plenty of "info" on the net from those who claim they, and a whole bunch of thers, did though...).

FirebladeLePen - it might sound like we're putting you off (and I guess, in a way, we are). It's just that we're trying to do one what-if with a "norse" feeling... I personally think that's enough for this scenario... However, I urge you to take on the idea and create a scenario/start a project yourself :)
 
I didn't really expect you guys to actually add in those two new colonies, but I thought it might be a good addition to a scenario. I think I will create that scenario though, maybe in a month or so you'll see my Colonial Wars scenario on here :D

I'm looking forward to playing your scenario though and exterminating the infidel Skraelings! :eek:

On topic, do you guys need someone to write a few events for any of the native tribes like the Cherokee or Lenape or some such (assuming you guys are still going to put them in the game :eek: )

No NA indians are removed, we are adding instead :) If you have some interresting events, sure: let's hear your ideas :)
 
I dont remember any major indian events offhand.. I'll have to do a little research ;)

I do know in Cherokee history though, in the 1500s some guy tried to unify the tribes into something that was more or less like a european nation. He got his ass kicked by the chiefs :(
