^^'Islands In The Sand'

^^The Earth as it might have been.  
^
This scenario takes place on an Earth which is much drier than our
planet.  It is now emerging from an ice age which locked up even more
of the water in ice.  Rivers of ice-melt water have created "islands"
open water and greenery amid the "ocean" of sand.  The hardy surviving
bands of humans are at a critical point--they are ready and the land is
about to make civilization possible.  It won't be easy--this is still an
arid world and the open desert is dangerous to all.
^
You have risen to leadership in one of these tribes.  The opportunity for
greatness for your people and yourself is there.  Can you succeed?
^
^Notes:  All tribes are playable.
^         Standard victory conditions:  conquer this world or reach another.
^         Highly recommend you read the Background document provided!
^
^Have fun and good luck.
