Hello Anno Community,
Here we are, at the end of October, ready to launch the final phase of our second Community Contest: the voting!
Back in September, we challenged you to write a little in-game quest for Anno 117: Pax Romana – tied to the region of Albion and featuring buildings, people and themes of this region.
We ended up receiving so many entries that we had to adjust our internal timeline for the start of the voting. It took us longer than planned to settle on our five favourites from the far over one hundred quests that we received.
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who submitted their story, we could clearly see that you all added what you wanted to see in Anno 117: Pax Romana into those stories: from references to Anno 1800, pop culture or ancient mythology to stories with dramatic turns and humour-filled episodes.
To ultimately settle on the five finalists our main criteria were: originality, feasibility within the game features and narrative tools at our disposal and if the quest/story fits within our world.
So, after going through your submissions, we chose our favourite entries. Find below a short summary for each quest and a link to a PDF with the full quest.
IMPORTANT: Entries have been annonymized for the voting and translated into English if needed. Otherwise, the content has not yet been adjusted to fit the exact realities of the game. That means that any characters, features, buildings etc. mentioned in said quests that have not yet been confirmed by us are pure speculation by these authors The winning entry will be adjusted afterwards if necessary.
- In Vino, Veritas
A teacher at the local Grammaticus requires the assistance of the governor to prepare a meeting with scholars, including the delivery of suspiciously large quantities of wine.
- Weapons from the Stars
A local smith argues the metal from a fallen star could be used for some very special weapons – assuming you can assist him finding and retrieving a piece of the fallen star in the first place.
- Traditional Beer in Danger
Do Romans not also deserve beer? Balance the worries and needs of the local population with those of traditionalists and your requirements as a governor when it comes to the age-old tradition of brewing beer.
- Spatha, no, Spathae!
New weapons for the Romans sound like a lucrative business – but the smith will need the support from the governor to start their ambitious project.
- Intercultural Exchange
Find the right balance on the topic of Romanization by intervening in the education in Albion and providing the Grammaticus building with the means to teach the young and old.
Had a thorough look and picked a favourite? Well, then it’s time to vote and have the concept of your choice turned into an actual in-game quest!
The voting is open until November 5th, end of day – you have one vote and your vote is completely annonymous.
Once again, a big shout out and thank you to everyone who participated, from all of us – and the Narrative Team specifically.
Have a fantastic week!
