Calling all designers: We've extended the deadline on the SLeague and HAC's Third Scenario Design Competition. The new deadline will be in EARLY SEPTEMBER. Although the rules page currently indicates that it ends in July, the staff has voted to extend it due to several requests for extensions.
The contest allows new and established designers alike to showcase their skills. Many popular Civ II sites have agreed to host the winners, which will allow winners' other scenarios to become much better known.
Interested in participating? Visit HAC and go to the official rules.

The topics for this contest are:
FW or MGE PLATFORM: The Basic Concept of "The Argonauts"
Historians and individuals who appreciate famous literature are amazed daily by the world that is created by Greek & Roman mythology. They told of gods with great powers that created all life on the planet - and ultimately, muddled in its affairs daily. The seasons, path of the sun and moon, and the balance mountains provide to the heavens all are the product of these outstanding deities.
We invite those entering the FW/MGE platform to explore the strange world of Greek & Roman mythology. It may involve some aspects of history, but we are looking for a Bronze Age fantasy scenario that involves these great gods on some level.
ToT PLATFORM: The Basic Concept of "Dracula"
Vampires rule, and we as general public are fascinated by them daily. We see them as dark creatures of the night that prey on the lessers of the human race. Dracula is the most famous of those vampires. It is rumored that a certain count in Hungary, Vlad the Impaler, made meals daily out of traveling passerby. That he slept in a coffin. That he had numerous wives that he made vampires also. Whether or not this is true, we are all aware of the power that vampires represent.
You may take either a fantastical or historical approach, or combine elements from both. Envision a great struggle between the light and the dark either way. Was Vlad Dracula? Or are vampires merely products of our imagination that drink their fill and vanish without being noticed?
