The E3 2001 Story Showcase was a unique beta scenario made for Age of Mythology which was shown at E3 2001. The scenario featured what was once the main hero of the original campaign, Misenus.
Summary[]
Misenus arrives at a nearby city, going through a nearby mountain range a short distance from the city center. Upon reaching an allied Hypaspist, Misenus dismounts his horse and converses with him. Upon reaching the allied army, Misenus takes command and must lead the city's army to defeat an unknown enemy, presumably lead by an early version of Gargarensis (represented by a Cyclops).
Objectives[]
The objectives are unknown and are simply unreadable due to videos showing the scenario being blurry and low quality. Thus, the objectives are hypothesized based on actions taken in the scenario.
- Go to the center of the city and meet with yellow Hypaspist.
- Defeat the cyclops forces attacking the city.
- Destroy the enemy base.
Video[]
Age of Mythology - E3 2001 - Story Scenario Showcase
The following video was filmed at the Ensemble Studios Age of Mythology Booth during E3 2001, the build is also dated to May 9, 2001. The video also doesn't feature any audio, likely due to the lack of an audio capture tool/program/etc. during filming.
Players[]
- Mineus (Zeus) - Starts with Misenus who is on his horse. After reaching the allied town, Misenus dismounts and gains control of the army, which consists of 16 Hoplites, 5 Hippeis and 8 Peltasts.
- Unknown Name (Poseidon) - The dominant force, controls many Hoplites, Peltasts, Cyclopses, and has some Houses, Docks, Academies, and Stables.
- Hypaspist (Unknown) - Consists of one Hypaspist, and a small offshoot of the allied city, to the southeast.
- Allied City (Unknown) - Consists of the allied city, and the army until it is taken over by Misenus.
Trivia[]
- Among other beta content (such as older unit models), this scenario also features different Ancient Greek architecture (which is more in accordance with ancient and later Greek architectural traditions) and Mediterranean cypresses.
