Vikings, Vikings,
we got Vikings! Actually there are no Vikings here. If you would
like a real, live Viking, please write to the Pentagon; they
store lots of them there.
Anyway, this section is for stories from players about their Civilization
games. If you have an interesting story, or a Viking, please send
it to Markos Giannopoulos.
Please: include a title for your story, remember to separate it into paragraphs, and to spell and grammar check your story before submission. Thank you in advance!
