The Quest For The Holy Grail

The Quest for the Holy Grail :
++++++++++++++++++++++

This original scenario for Age Of Empires 2 of my creation is inpired by the arthurian legend (literature and films). 
It's a kind of role playing game type of scenario with a lot of micro-management and tactical possibilities, riddles and events (triggers) for single player only. 

You begin with King Arthur but you can rally other heroes to fulfill the quest, and develop your strength and abilities by accomplishing a lot of secondary missions. 

Settings :
Single player game with original game, original AI, normal visibility (or you will spoil all surprise) and locked teams (Civs, techs and diplomacy will be automatically seted by the scenario).

There are some references from "Perceval, the story of the Grail" ("Perceval, ou le roman du Graal") by Chrétien de Troyes, the first written "roman" ("novel" in French: fictional written story in prose) in history, and book about the arthurian legend, some continuations, the film "Excalibur" by John Boorman and Rospo Pallenberg, "Monty Python and the holy Grail", "Kaamelott", a French television series by Alexandre Astier, and also French medieval Breton and Angevin (my region) architecture, which inspired some locations of the Legend of Arthur, king of all Britons, in fact Celts (west of France (Britanny), Anjou, Normandy and Britain essentially (like Tintagel castle, considered as birthplace of Arthur, a magnificent unique natural stronghold on the coast with cliffs, which insipired the design of my fantasy Camelot castle here), historians are not agreed besides, the origin of the legend is probably historically while the Roman Empire and without any fantasy, christianity and other medieval details, just Byzantine cataphracts (hence "the knights ("chevaliers" in French=horse rider) of the round table") sent from the far east of the empire (Sarmatians, Scythians from Crimea which their symbol on shield was a dragon surrounding a pearl, like the Black Sea surrounds Crimea, only Slavic land with with hot and sweet climate (so with wine and all fruits possible), and we know also that the dragon was Uther symbol nicknamed "Pendragon", father of Arthur and first king of all Britain unifying all the celtic tribes in Great Britain or elsewhere like Britanny (in actual France) or Ireland) to dominate the barbarians outside Adrian's Wall, (pictes, scots, saxons, vikings, etc.) probably). 
The real Grail (the "bowl" that received the blood of the crucified Christ) is also mentioned to be brought from middle east while the crusades by the French Knight Templars (they pretend it) hence the fictional story depicted by Steven Spielberg and written by Georges Lucas: "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade".
