The Mythic History of Midgard is a scenario in Civilization II: Fantastic Worlds.
Intro[]
THE TRAGIC HISTORY OF MIDGARD
during the Years of Encroaching Darkness (Y.E.D.)
The ostensible object is to conquer the world;
other roads to victory exist for you to discover.
You may play any of the seven civilizations, but we do not recommend either the
Stygians or the Goblins--the former due to their unfair ability to control powerful
dragons and other monsters, and the latter due to their superior fecundity.
