Hi, I am a regular player of Civ2 MPGE, thought I would try this out... all you do is make posts and it is all automated isn't it?? Anyway... I'll take France. I know at the time they weren't strong, or considered a world power, but I would like to give it a shot.
Since this is my first time... if anyone wants to send me some tips as to how to do this I would be most appreciative.

It certainly isn't automated. We make posts here consisting of "stories" and statistics about our nation's progress and interaction with other nations. Someone (in this case me) will update the map every so often. Does that clarify things a bit? Thank you for participating.

All right guys start holding the major nations down. I'll start sending out a small armada of e-mails to the vteran posters I know. And they aren't going to want teeny countries.Comment

There are plenty of major nations left, especially some of the Islamic ones.
Say, RocMaster, would you mind picking a more minor nation, such as Bulgaria or maybe Georgia, so as to leave France open for some of the more veteran story threaders? I don't mean to be prejudiced against newbies, but we really need some vets if this thread is to succeed.
Midshipman: Yes, you are the pope, but don't expect too much special treatment.

Well, hey, if I'm the pope, that should give me some influence around all of Europe. Granted, the Byzantines won't listen to me that much, but West Europe should. I was just wondering.But I kick that ball, and I pray it goes straight,

For that matter, since I'm the Byzantines, didn't most countries in Europe have some sort of awe for the Byzantine Empire as successor to the Roman Empire and as the "stalwart defender against the Islamic hordes."

Yeah. The two most powerful forces in medieval Europe were the church, and teh Roman Empire. So, as successor to the Roman empire, you would have great standing.
At least that's what I think. I should have stayed awake longer in world history.But I kick that ball, and I pray it goes straight,

Ill take Kingdom of Poland which kicked many times German Troops then (1002-1018 for example)"We, in Poland, dont know the idea of peace at any price. There is only one thing in life of people, nations, and countries that is priceless. This thing is honor!" - Jozef Beck, Polish Foreign Minister. 5 V 1939Comment

The papacy in 1000 was being led by a very powerful and assertive pope (I forget his name, although I remember that beforehe became pope his name was Gerber). The Byzantine Empire also had strong leadership in 1000 AD, I think it was either Basil I or Basil II.
Just a note, but one of the up-and-coming nations in 1000AD was Poland, under Boleslav the Brave.
Also, if someone wanted to lead an organization that was not exactly a nation (I'm thinking specifically of Mao in this case, someone ought to notify him of this), they could pick to be the leader of the Cluniac Monastic order (I think the leader's name was Odo), based in Cluny (in southern France). The Cluniac order was very influential at this time, and was essentially the right hand of the papacy. The main church in Cluny was the largest building in western Europe at that time (I think).
