Timed events[edit | edit source]

Day Title Message
Day 1 Viking Opening You are the Jarl of the Viking nation. It has come to pass that you have been overtaken by the burning in your blood to pillage and plunder. Now you must plunder the land and destroy all of the other so-called kings. Those that oppose you shall meet you in Valhalla. Glory be to Odin, the All-Father.

Note: ONLY applies to Red HUMAN player.

Day 1 French Opening Rumor has it the Norsemen have begun their surge into the lands again. Now is a prime opportunity for you to take land for France. Those irritating Spaniards to the south as well as the English to the northwest will most assuredly attempt to stop you. We must be especially careful when taking land from Italy to not upset the Pope. Perhaps by taking their land we can show His Eminence that he is vulnerable and should move the center of Christendom to Paris. Hmm... an interesting idea.

Viva la France!

Note: ONLY applies to Blue HUMAN player.

Day 1 Italian Opening The Pope has learned that the Norsemen have begun raids along the coastline and are pressing into Russia. These savages must be stopped, and he has decreed it a Holy Crusade for you to bring the word of God to them by whatever means are necessary. Gaining their attention is not going to be easy, but he has the utmost of confidence in you. God speed.

Note: ONLY applies to Tan HUMAN player.

Day 1 Spanish Opening The Norse have attacked and are threatening to bring their heathen ways to the world. This cannot be allowed to happen. If you were to stop them, grabbing some territory along the way, I'm sure the Pope could be convinced to ignore the means with which we stop these barbarians. Stop the Vikings if you can, but take the French lands as is due us for putting up with their insufferable attitude. We are the Spanish, the mightiest nation on Earth. We should rule.

Note: ONLY applies to Orange HUMAN player.

Day 1 English Opening The raids have begun once more. Those dread Norsemen have come to raid the coast Europe again and this time we shall not sit idly by and let the plunder continue. Take your armies and crush the Viking raiders.

The French minister informed us they shall not allow English armies upon their soil and will declare war should we leave our island. I take this as a declaration of war, and we shall not sit for this. The Spanish are no better nor are the Italians. They will surely take this as an opportunity to grab for land. Defend England and further her empire. God save the Queen.

Note: ONLY applies to Green HUMAN player.

Day 8 The Pope's Blessing - Italy, France, and Spain (Repeats every 28 days)
His Eminence, the Pope, sends his blessings to you for your assistance in this most holy of Crusades.

Note: ONLY applies to Tan Orange HUMAN player.


Effect: +1000 Gold
Day 13 The 13th Day 'Tis the 13th day since the Norsemen began their attacks on our beloved Christendom, and a black day it is. His Eminence, the Pope, has fallen ill and no one can seem to revive him. This bodes ill.

Note: ONLY applies to Blue Tan Green Orange HUMAN player.

Day 21 News About the Pope I have heard the Pope has fallen ill and is dying. This will cause our enemies to bicker amongst themselves even more than usual. Now is the time to strike. If we are able to sack Rome, the Christians will be fearful of our wrath and might. We must remain true to the teachings of Odin and his sire. Perhaps if we are successful, Heimdal shall greet us at the Bridge when we die with stout ale, a salute, and many fine young women.

Note: ONLY applies to Red HUMAN player.

Day 24 Thor's Fury A raging storm whips the land and sea, and your shaman tells you this means Thor is eager to assist in your conquest. Press on, and achieve honor and much glory.

Note: ONLY applies to Red HUMAN player.

Day 24 A terrible storm A terrible storm rages across the land and destroys crops everywhere. Starvation runs rampant and the cost of cleaning up the dead is astronomical. Perhaps God himself is punishing us.

Note: ONLY applies to Blue Tan Green Orange HUMAN player.


Effect: -1500 Gold, -8 Wood, -6 Ore
Day 40 The Pope Worsens The Pope's condition has worsened, or so the rumormongers claim. This is a dark time we live in.

Note: ONLY applies to Blue Tan Green Orange HUMAN player.

Day 69 2 Months Have Passed It has been two long months since His Eminence fell into a fevered slumber. The pox, which rages through his body, threatens to consume him and return him to God. The time has come when the Council of Cardinals must choose a successor. As soon as one has been chosen, you shall all be notified.

Note: ONLY applies to Blue Tan Green Orange HUMAN player.
