The Galley begins its Northern trek across the seas and back into the coastal areas where we spot an Aussie Swordsman supposedly heading North inspecting the dyes in the jungles near the Russians northeastern borders. The pair of Horsemen are lagging slightly behind the Galley moving along the coast towards the jungles and the Aussie Swordsman.

Technology will be gained in a few turns and then we enter into the middle ages.

Code of Laws is one turn away so we should see what ech advance the Russians receive for the beginning of the Middle ages.

Need the 3 player resent.

If you are interested I found some cool opening screen background replacements at GI dustins site. One of Alexander the Great fighting Darius, another of a Caravel entering a bay, another of an Apache attack chopper, and one of the scene like the beginning of Gladiator when Russel Crowe is walking through the wheat fields. Cool stuff if your interested in something other than the PTW spaceship screen.

Currently the Russian Generals are advising that the Russian forces swing around to the northern areas starting with a landing in between Reykjavik and Oslo and then continue over the hills spliting the mountain passes at Stavenger. While the Russian are asssaulting from the sea and the open western plains areas bounded by the mountains southwest of Stavenger the Aussies will cross over the mountains from the south and attack Aarhus or land from the sea in between Aarhus and Copenhagen and link up with the Russians to assault Trondheim together wiping out the Vikings and splitting the spoils.

The free advance for entering the Middle Ages was Monotheism so because the Aussies earlier mentioned they were worhsiping one God and were currently researching Fuedalism the Russian scientists decided to research Engineering instead.

The Viking scouts near the jungle rivers to the east of the current Russian settlements looked very worried as they watched the string of Horsemen ride into view. One of them began to try to find a place back into the jungles to possably run to and escape the on rushing Horsemen as they galloped towards him at it seemed like an ever increasing speed.

The Viking scouts could hear the jingling of what could only be the sword scabbards of the Horsemen bouncing against the creaking leather of the saddle and its various straps buckles. As the Horsemen drew nearer and nearer the Viking scouts closed their eyes and screamed out a plea to Odin for him to appear on his own stallion and strike down the would be enemies of the Viking peoples.

One of the Russian Horsemen as they passed swiftly by the obviously crazed or drunken Vikings scouts and looked puzzlingly at each other and smiled at the obviously absolute terror stricken Viking scouts as they continued past never breaking stride and into the jungles beyond. The Horsemen chuckled to himself and looked over at his riding companions and said, 'Not yet my Viking friend. Not quit yet...but very soon I promise you will meet your Odin. Until then pray harder to what ever other Gods you serve that cannot save you from the wrath that you will feel at the tip of my spear. Pray harder still for your homeland that is far behind you now and will never be the same as it was when you left it behind before coming here. Remeber well for these memories will be the only things left of the Viking peoples.'

In the jungles of southern Viking territroy the Australian Brigades of swordsmen gathered, their leaders Captain Morant and Captain Bell, were discussing the tactics of the next few days. So far they had advanced with no sigihting of the vikings, they had silently crept into southern areas of viking territory with out raising the alarm. They knew not why the australian leadership back in Raz HQ were sending them northwards. They wondered what the vikings had done that was so bad that needed the whole australian swordsmen brigades sent at furious pace over the mountains.

They had heard rumours of similar movements of russian horsemen but had not seen them either. They also heard rumours of more swordsmen being shipped in along the cost. This was all way too big for them. They didnt see the big picture, all they knew was they were to position themselves outside certain viking citys and they had to get there ASAP. So this small break for vituals was all their troops would get, already they had been travelling for centuries to reach the palce they now were. Luckily aussies were of long life.

They trusted the leadership and knew if worse came to worse that the soldeirs under their comamnd would fight gloriously, having all been trained in the barracks of Raz HQ.

Tonight they sleep, tomorrow they continued their duble paced march towrads The vikings.

The Galley with the two Catapults critical to the invasion of the Viings has passed up the other Archers who are making their way across the beginnings of the deserts and plains just south of the Vikings.

The other Galley has picked up some Settlers from the western shores of the Russian Empire and will ferry them to their new homes across the channel. While there the Galley will pick-up the Scouts and Warriors who have been enjoying their isolated vacations that will soon end.

The Galley in the west has disembarked its Settlers and will continue westward to pick-up the Scouts next turn and drop them across the other channel the following turn. After that they repeat the process for the Warrior who was stationed watching the southern tip of the western islands channel.

The galley, Horsemen, Archers, and Warrior continue their manuevering northward into attack positions.

Traded world maps again with the Aussies and hope that the Aussies understand to keep our maps confidential once we remove the Vikings from the north. However tempting it may be to trade our world or territory maps to the other powers once we meet them. Usually they can be obtained without revealing the strategic map positions and locations of our cities.

ITS WAR!!!!!!

Reports have arrived back in town today of action in the mountains south of Viking territory. Apparently a Viking scout called out rude names to the Australian swordsmen and they reacted by cutting off his head. A usual Aussie traditional response to name calling.

The Viking leader sent immediate word that this insitgated a state of war betweein our two nations...

The Russian Generals think the Aussies attack in the south may have been premature but might be wrong as the Vikings might begin to shift troops towards the south. If so then the planned Russian landings on the north coast will be more a surprise with the Viking defenders moving to the south to attack the Aussies crossing the mountains. Perhaps the Vikings will get stuck on the killings fields of the open areas in between the mountain ranges where the protection of the mountains cannot protect them so well.

The Galley containing the Catapults is moving north from the Viking side of the killing fields on the western coast. Their are a few Wariors, Archers, and a Scout moving across the edge of the northern mountains towards the planned beachhead for the catapults landing.

In the West the Settlers picked a nice hill top that overlooks the channel on the western island for a new city site. The galley picked up the Scouts from the same island and will drop them across the other western channel on the now unknown land mass and then pick-up the Warriors to the south and deliver them across the channel as well.

The Galley in the North ran across an Aussie Galley and asked her Captain to exchange his charts of the Waters to the North as the Russians are sailing the Cataputs around the Northern tip of the continent soon.

The troops in the killing fields are making their way across and into the Mountains headed for Stavenger were they hopefully will rendevous with the successfull invasion force after it lands further to the north.

Russian cities and infrastructure continue to be built growing the industrial power house that they one day will soon become.
