[1.01] Introduction
Welcome to my 18th FAQ. I've some Civ 4 the base game, but haven't done
Warlords, which I will, sooner or later. Anyway, Beyond the Sword is the
second Expansion Pack for Civ 4, which I might add, is massive. It hads many
things to Civ 4, which in itself, is wonderful. Read the reviews if you
want to know what happens. As for the game itself, it seems that this seems to
cover everything from the Warlords expansion and as such, it makes that
worthless and this worthwhile.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[1.02] Version History
Version 0.1 [27/7/07]
Started the Guide. Random Events up and running.
Version 0.2 [29/7/07]
More random events.
Version 0.3 [30/7/07]
More random events, with 100% more goodiness.
Version 0.4 [31/7/07]
Even more random events. There are too many of them. Just when you do one,
pop comes out some more.
Version 0.5 [2/8/07]
Have to finish random events first. This is going to be a long time.
Version 0.6 [21/8/07]
Must update more random events when I can.
Version 0.7 [22/8/07]
Update on random events. About halfway there.
Version 0.8 [23/8/07]
More than halfway done on random events. This is taking a long time.
Version 0.9 [24/8/07]
Two thirds of the way there. Only Quests remain
Version 1.0 [29/8/07]
This should be the end of these pesky random events. All gone.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2.01] Random Events
Random Events are arguable the most expansive addition in Beyond the Sword,
and besides the Corporations, one of the reason why I bought it. They can
occur at any time, at any point in your game. They can be good, some can be
bad and some can be a bit strange. There is over 1 Mb and a half of text
that I had to sift through to bring these events to you, so be at least
grateful. For the events to happen, you must have the "No Random Events" not
enabled to allow for the events to occur.
Not all events will occur in one game. Some will appear, some won't. Below,
I will list everything, the options and what happens. There are several types
of events that I have seperated. Quests are missions you have to do.
Civilization Events effect your entire empire, City events effect one
specific city, Tile events effect a production tile, Unit events effect your
units and Foreign Events are events that have an effect overseas.
Here is how it goes. The symbols you have to be aware for.
[Civ Adjective] = Adjective for your nation. For example, America
will be American, China will be Chinese, etc.
[Civ City] = A city under your control.
[Civ City Building] = A building inside one of your cities.
[Civ Corporation] = A corporation under your control.
[Civ Unit] = A Unit under your command.
[Civ Religion] = A religion worshipped in your Empire
[Civ Religion Adjective] = The Adjective for a religion. For example, Islam
will be Islamic, Buddhism will be Buddhist.
[Civ Wonder] = A Wonder
[Other Civ] = Another Civilisation
[Other Civ Adjective] = The Adjective of another Civilisation's empire.
[Other Civ City] = Another Civilisation's City
[Another Civ] = A third Civ
[Tile Improvement] = A tile improvement
[Tile Resource] = A bonus on a tile
X = A defined number
Y = Another defined number

*THE BLESSED SEA*
*****************
--==Scenario==--

wise masters have divined the way regarding our relationship with the sea.

our traditions to new lands."
--==Quest Help==--
"The Blessed Sea. You are tasked by your religious leaders to found cities
on new landmasses. If you can build enough cities on new landmasses you will
please the masters, who will offer you a choice of rewards."
"To complete this quest, you must establish or capture cities on X total
landmasses of any size, from one-plot islands to massive continents. All
landmasses where you have at least one city are counted. Note that additional
cities on the same island or continent do not help in this quest. The goal
is to establish your presence on a number of different landmasses and
thereby prove your mastery over the waters. You will fail this quest if you
change state religions, cease to have a state religion or reach Industrialism
without having met the conditions."

your religious leaders will solve the puzzle and identify the correct
location of the Holy Mountain, which you must then still go and settle near
to complete the quest. A [Christian Cathedral, Jewish Synagogue or Islamic
Mosque] allows for more co-ordinated worship and is worth as much as four
Temples for the purposes of this quest. You will fail this quest if you
