One Sentence Story II: Return of the One Sentence Story Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

The last one sort of petered out, so I thought to encourage spam - erm, I mean, some activity to this forum, we, well, I, could fire up one of these.

Methinks a scenario would be good to develop... it's MY 2230, pretty far to the game that is. Vendettas are on, the Peacekeepers have subjugated the Morganites, the Progenitors have just landed. That sort of thing. I'm sure at least History Guy will get something written here.

Okay. Starting now!




Once upon a time, in the great communes of Gaia's Landing, Lady Deirdre was having a cup of xenocoffee with a charming young man.

As Her Ladyship began to chatter away happily about dropping fungal payloads on innocent civilians, Nastingham hid in the corner and ripped off his mask...revealing him not to be Nastingham Forkbeard-Johnson, but indeed the escaped criminal, Nastingham Selden!
