Scripting
- “ Peloponnesian War ” ( English Peloponnesian War , from 1 to 2 players) - the Athenians begin the game with a strong economy and power over the sea, but their empire is too large for their army. The Spartans have few overseas possessions, but possess a powerful army. Both sides have allied city-states designated as vassals in the game;
- “Unification of China” ( English Chinese Unification , from 1 to 5 players) - a scenario lasting 200 moves in which the player will lead one of the states of the period of the Battle of the Kingdoms and unite China. Instead of religions, the script uses a blood bond distributed by emissaries. UN replaces the Council of the Emperor;
- “Conquests of Alexander” ( English Alexander's Conquest , 1 player) - a scenario in which the manager of Macedonia, the player must conquer Persia, Egypt and India; Alexander the Great is present in the form of a great commander (he cannot be killed but only wounded for several moves). Instead of institutions of power, a player can choose various titles (for example, “Alexander Vyshochka” or “Alexander the Great”);
- “The Rise of Rome” ( eng. The Rise of Rome , from 1 to 5 players) - in addition to the Romans, the script also contains Carthaginians, Gauls, Greeks and Egyptians;
- “Vikings” ( born Vikings , 1 player) - managing the Vikings under the leadership of Ragnar Lodbroka , the player must collect a huge amount of gold; this can be done by capturing cities in England, Ireland and Northern France and returning them in exchange for a ransom;
- “ Genghis Khan ” ( Eng. Genghis Khan , 1 player) - in this scenario, the player controls the Mongol horde and tries to conquer Asian states or make them his vassals; at the start, the Mongols do not have cities, but they have 3 unit camps that produce troops; the conquest of each new state opens up access to new technology;
- Omens ( Omens , 1 to 2 players) is an alternative historical scenario starting in 1754 in which the French and British wage a power struggle in the Ohio River Valley . The player takes on the role of either the Marquis of Dukein (France) or George Washington (England). Religion is at the heart of the conflict: French Catholics fight the English Protestants . Between a rock and a hard place was the Lenape civilization. Meanwhile, news comes of the appearance of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse;
- “Barbarian Horde” ( born Barbarian Horde , 1 player) - unlike the others, this scenario is not dedicated to specific historical events, but implements a new concept of gameplay - the player leads an army of barbarians invading a world inhabited by civilized peoples (who are given a head start from 25 to 100 moves); economics and diplomacy are virtually absent; when a city is captured by barbarians, it collapses; troops are hired for looted gold in the barbarian camp, which is a special unit; the goal of the game is to conquer the whole world.
