My Second Story (after CGW) based on a game which moved big time into the Middle Ages, and this is a Chieftain game, so there's gonna be some dominating. Like Stages of the World, and the short-lived CGW 2, I'm going to go through the whole experience and touch on most of the key points. (and we may see some of our old friends along the way)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Alexander streched, he had just spent his first night in Athens, all that it was at the moment was his modest stone palace, and a few mud-brick buildings, not yet masonry, but getting there. There was one dusty street which all the buildings were on, and the palace was at the very end of it, behind the palace lay the mysterious Northern Ocean, and the beginnings of a Greek harbor, Alexander had a feeling that this water would end up being important, so he planned ahead for expansion.
"Military Minister Civman!"
"Aye Aye Commander Alexander?"
"Train the finest men in the viliage into a force to explore the land arround here so that we may know of good places to build more communities like Athens"
"Aye Aye Commander"
Civman marched strongly out of the stone structure, he was proud of himself, God had given him immortality with Alexander, and so he was fearless, he taught the men the arts of barbarism, as they were all that was known. The men fasioned their own crude axes, hammers, and maces with which to blugeon, mangle, and maim potential enemies. Being true Grecians, they bathed themselves in Neon green paint, and started off into the unknown outside of Athens.

"What now bos?"
Hustus and the slave gang had stomped the earth from Athens to a grassland which was particularly fertile.
"Dig a really deep hole in the middle"
"Shouldn'ta we be diggin' ditches bos?"
"Ditches won't help anything, deep holes produce more shields"
Sometimes Hustus didn't understand Alexander's "touched by God" way of speaking, but he dug the hole as he was impressed with Alexander's assuredness.
Slowly but surely, the hole got deeper.
"What we gonna call dis hole bos?"
"It's MINE, so call it mine."
"Ok, mine, tanx bos"
"NO NO NO, this hole is called A mine"
"Why don' we jus' call it de hole an' call it good?"
"Because I'm a political figure, therefore I make everything confusing so that simple minded meaklings like yourself, no offence, can worship me and dig holes which I can give silly names."
"Ok bos"

Civman's warriors had an unusual sight. There were a bunch of similarly dressed people, wearing PINK no less! Civman asked them to take him to their leader.
"Ahh, so your name is... Civman! right? Why are you here?"
"Your majesty, I represent Greece! In the name of Commander Alexander."
"Grease? GREASE! Do you mock me boy? I know all about cooking, I'm French after all, and I know that there is NO such country based in my leftover cooking!!!"
"Uh, your um...wig"
"WHAT WIG??!" She was indeed furious, and the wig was indeed, falling off her shaven head.
"HAHA wait untill I tell Alexander about the bald queen of France, this is SUCH a bargaining chip, I'll trade you 8 head razors for $4,000 you must go through like 1 a day, and they're expensive for sure..." Civman couldn't hold it in, he guffawed all the way out into the moat of the French City, Paris.
