Jones Blond
and the Sacred Ring
This scenario is made on a 25x25 map, and was in the beginning supposed to be my entry to the Minigame Competition. I later got out of ideas and abandoned the project, and became judge of the competition, and let the scenarrio gather dust in the archives. One day I picked it up again and decided to make it a birthdaypresent to my design team, StormWind Studios, whose birthday is today - the 13th of August. Happy birthday SWS!
S T O R Y
The Sacred Ring, a ring that is given only to the Emperor of Valcabimba when he is crowned, has been stolen by a mysterious person. Since all other agents - even the ultimate disaster Johnny - are on duty on various locations, the Agency is forced to send their black sheep to Valcabimba - Jones Blond.
Tall, handsome, a gentleman. That's how most people would describe him - Jones Blond, Agent 003, the greatest agent of all times... At least, that's how he wants people to describe him. In reality, Jones isn't as he described himself. He's got long, messy dark hair, he's everything but a gentleman, although he's not mean, and he's not handsome. Despite the name, Jones Blond, he's all but blonde. His last name was Blonde when he was born, but he changed it when he became older. He hates misspellings of his name just as much as he hates to fix up his hair.
Jones was taken in as the third agent in the agency. His scores where third best. His brother came on seventh place. A total of fifteen agents where taken into the agency, out of 500 contestants. But ever since then, Jones's career has crashed into pieces. He has had only a few missions around the world while all other agents has had lots of missions. His brother became the most famous agent of all times. His name is not neccesary to mention here.
G A M E P L A Y
This is an RPG scenario, with the end made as a mini-FF. the style is basically the same as in my Sven's Quest, but the theme and idea is different.
You play with one unit - Jones - throughout most of the scenario. You can pick any difficulty you like, but they will only make differense in the end.
This is only the first scenario about Jones Blond and his adventures. I can tell already that there will be at least one more scenario with Jones as a main character, and one where he takes part in one of five scenarios.

Since I'm too lazy to make a ReadMe file, this is the way to install (the ordinary way, but for those who dont know it it might be helpful)
.cpx goes to 'Campaign' folder
.mp3 goes to 'SOUND\scenario' folder
The folders are located at:
Your Harddrive\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Age of Empires II\
Also, in case the soundfile "JB - wrong answer" crashes your game, as it did with Tanneur (not with mine though), there is a special zip file included, adding an alternative sound that should work. If you dont get the crash, stick to the original one.

Basse, I love all of your campaigns and practically everything you make. There is a small bug on the quiz,for me. When it asks me who worshipped Quezalcoatal as a god, I chose both answers (Aztecs and Toltecs). They were both incorrect. I don't know if it's just for my comp, but its weird. The way you added humour to Jones Blond was great. I think a lot more capaign designers should incorporate fun and interactivity into their creations. Anyways, This is an awesome campaign. Keep up with the great work.[Edited on 08/23/07 @ 10:05 PM]

Sure you can see the scenario if you like. You'll need Campaign Manager to transform the campaign to a scenario, and as long as you dont modify or change anything you can look around freely
The Campaign Manager can be found here:

No problem :)
I used Trigger Studio to make a map this small. You ca find one with this size and quite a few others in my Mini & Mega Scenarios pack, along with a turotial on how to make maps like this. |

Did talk to all people, but cannot find that stupid ring or any hint to find it.
Did step in a black hole, didn´t get killed or something.
I am stuck within 5 min |

I reported that already in the first comment, I also talked to everyone and did not find the ring, but Basse said, "...the plumed archer is supposed to not be activated. He'll be activated when you've done enough on the rest of the map" No idea what that could be as I solved the quiz, repaired the cart, watched joggers. |

There are three things you have to do to activate the plumed archer
1, talk with the Emperor
2, complete the quiz
3, talk with the guard at Vunca Hombre's mansion
After that, go to the plumed archer and he'll give you a letter. |
