[SPOILERS] Lewger goes for the Bigwyn

[Bigger]

Which names are you already using?

gilgamesh, theaneid, theodyssey, the iliad, beowulf (lost but not forgotten, saving it for when we recapture), Volsung (viking epic) and mathfabmathowny(welsh epic)

Ramayana & Mahabharata

Chanson de Roland

Nibelungenlied (maybe too much overlap with the Volsung)

If you every really run dry, the wiki entry on "Epic Poetry" is nice and comprehensive.

In addition to the ones listed above we now have: Popol vuh, Song of Roland, and King Arthur.
This was interesting:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mabinogion
seems to imply that MathFabMathony was influential in the King Arthur myths, which I did not know when I named either city. But it works out since the 2 are neighbors .

Anyway we are working on expansion projects atm, so I've been thinking of new epics
For the next 5-6 cities I am thinking:

El Cid (pretty much set on this being gold/pigs city) - or should it be "Poem of my Cid," not sure. El Cid is technically the character, Cantar de Mio Cid the work. "El Cid" just sounds cooler though .
Romance of 3 Kingdoms - I want to use this for the marble city, but I'm not sure how to shorten it to 15 characters w/o butchering it. Any suggestions?
Mahabharata (and I will use Ramayana eventually as well if we keep getting new cities - maybe in the same batch)
Nibelungenlied - probably one of the 2 tundra cities we will found
Shahnameh (Iranian)

I'm naturally biased towards European epics, so I've had to do some research for all but El Cid here. But I want to get the ancient epics out of the war before moving towards medieval/early modern works like Don Quixote, Divine Comedy, Paradise Lost, etc. - and eventually probably Leaves of Grass and other modern works.

Open to lurker suggestions too (Math and Popol Vuh were both excellent suggestions I probably wouldnt have found on my own), but I think I'll use all 6 of at some point (if I can find a good name for 3 Kingdoms).

edit: ooh, might need to squeeze Arabian Nights in there somewhere too.
