Foreword
All the texts of the various chapters are available in this area. Both the successful and the failed.
So that - if the chapters have not yet been played through - the tension is maintained, the texts are folded for the time being.
| To read, please click on "[Expand]" on the right | |
| Chapter 1 | Let's go to Britain! |
| After hearing the disturbing news from Funfax, our Gauls borrow the old dinghy from Baltix and set sail to Britain. However, since they have never visited the island before or even held a nautical chart in their hands, the journey could prove extremely challenging! | |
| Success | Fail |
|---|---|
| As the weather gets colder and rainier, our Gauls know they are heading in the right direction! It is a long trip to Britain. Hopefully, our Gauls have packed enough supplies for the trip! | As the weather gets warmer and sunnier, our Gauls suspect that they may have set sails in the wrong direction, unless palm trees suddenly grow on the coast of Britain! Well, that didn't work. |
| Chapter 2 | Pirates on the run |
| Suddenly our Gauls get company. Oh, can it be? Is it the notorious pirate crew they already encountered in Corsica? Strange! Usually these saber-rattling corsairs don't hesitate to attack another ship but now they look as if they can't sail away fast enough. Should the Gauls ask what's going on with their pirate friends? | |
| Success | Fail |
| Said and done! With ease, the Gauls jump onto the pirate ship to say 'hello'. “The Ga, the GaGa, the Gaaaaaaauls!”, the barrelman shouts from the crow's nest. Some pirates jump into the water while others start voluntarily hacking at their own ship with axes. These pirates are crazy! Before the Gauls can ask what the pirates are sailing away from, the entire crew has jumped overboard. | Before our Gauls can even realize what's happening the pirate ship whooshes past them! No chance to board! By Toutatis, what are these pirates fleeing from? |
| Chapter 3 | Piratic delicacies |
| Our Gauls are still scratching their heads and wondering why these pirates were in such a hurry when a delicious smell catches their attention. Are there some hidden treats onboard? The Gauls would definitely appreciate a bite to eat. | |
| Success | Fail |
| What's that? Dozens of delicious treats are piling up below deck! Fruit baskets, roasted pigs, cakes and pies, soups, and fried fish! A real feast for our Gauls.Eat up quickly before the pirate ship goes down! | Our Gauls realize too late that the pirates have kept their delicacies in the belly of the ship. When checking down below, everything is already soaked in seawater. Oh no, all those fine delicacies! That's a bummer! |
| Chapter 4 | Full speed ahead |
| Very soon our Gauls discover on the horizon what the pirates were sailing away from! A huge Roman galley is heading towards them at breakneck speed and does not seem to alter its course. If our Gauls do nothing, the little dinghy will be crushed by the galley! | |
| Success | Fail |
| With great difficulty, the Gauls manage to avoid the large galley. Poor Baltix is sweating blood and tears! He doesn't want to imagine what would have happened if his little dinghy had been hit by the galley! | Oh dear, the Gauls cannot evade the galley in time and it collides with the tiny dinghy at full speed. Planks fly all over the place and Baltix is devastated. How is he supposed to provide his always-fresh fish now? |
| Chapter 5 | Get ready to board |
| The Gauls barely evade the galley while the Romans are having a good laugh. That's it, our heroes have had enough! These Romans must be taught a few manners. The Gauls roll up their sleeves and get ready to board! | |
| Success | Fail |
| From one second to the next, thick fog appears and is blocking the sight for our Gauls. Now they have to be extra careful. Britain is close and the rocky coastline is dangerous. They don't want Baltix' dinghy to crash into a rock! | Even though our Gauls managed to evade the Roman galley, the high waves drive the small dinghy further and further away from the railing and our heroes cannot board the ship. These lucky Romans just got away! |
| Chapter 6 | Romans overboard! |
| “Attack!”, shouts the Centurion with trembling knees. Even on the high seas they are not safe from these Gauls! The Roman soldiers reluctantly grab their spears, aware of what to expect. They know these Gaulish skirmishes all too well, after all! | |
| Success | Fail |
| Boom! Bang! Bam! Paff! As expected, the Romans don't stand a chance against our Gauls. Before they even know what is happening to them, one after another is flying over the railing. On top of that, the Gauls sink their galley! Well, Julius won't be happy to hear that! | By Toutatis! The Gauls vastly underestimated the Romans! They seem downright inspired from their stay on the British Isles - presumably because they don't have to fight Gauls all the time - and hit them hard. All our heroes can do is to retreat! |
| Chapter 7 | Gaulish maneuvering skills |
| From one second to the next, thick fog appears and is blocking the sight for our Gauls. Now they have to be extra careful. Britain is close and the rocky coastline is dangerous. They don't want Baltix' dinghy to crash into a rock! | |
| Success | Fail |
| The Gauls skillfully maneuver the small dinghy through the rocks without even a scratch! Many seamen could have learned a thing or two from them. And lo and behold! Land in sight! | Oh no! Our Gauls have already made it halfway through the rocks when they suddenly hear a loud TOK and their feet start getting wet. What a mess! Baltix had just repaired his dinghy a few days ago! |
| Chapter 8 | Better safe than sorry |
| The Gauls reach the British coast safe and dry. Dry? Depends on how you look at it. It's raining cats and dogs as they pull the boat ashore. They better look for a good hiding spot for the dinghy. Otherwise, the Romans could stumble onto it and take possession of the boat! Baltix wouldn't be pleased at all. | |
| Success | Fail |
| The Gauls take a look around the beach and find a dune not far away, where they can hide the small dinghy. Assured that no one will find the boat, they set off in good spirits. | Even though the Gauls try their best, they just can't think of a good hiding spot for the dinghy and decide to just leave it where they pulled it ashore. Hopefully, it will still be there in the end. Otherwise Baltix will get really mad! |
| Chapter 9 | So, which way? |
| The Gauls hit the road in good spirits. They are supposed to meet with Funfax in the tavern “The Jolly Boar”, but they don't know the way. Fortunately, a Roman patrol is nearby. Surely, they will be happy to provide directions for our heroes! | |
| Success | Fail |
| After some initial difficulties, the Romans are persuaded to show the Gauls the way. Of course, this has nothing to do with the fact that they spanked them properly. No, the Roman soldiers stationed in Britain just seem to be very communicative! With a very precise description of the route, the Gauls set off to the “Jolly Boar”. | Oh dear, our Gauls have been a little excessive in their persuasion efforts! None of the Romans can give them directions any longer since they are all unconscious. Next time our heroes better hold back - now they have to go looking for the tavern without any clue of its location! |
