Time Threat Paradox?

I have two versions of Test of Time, and neither had this supposed scenario. I won't delete the section because the problem might be related to what country you're in. Can someone verify this scenario's existence? As a note, I live in Australia.220.238.137.211 12:15, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Yes, it exists, and while I'm not sure if it was on the CD, you can download it here [1] if you want. FrozenPurpleCube 14:38, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
I don't think it's included in any official release of the game, though it's probable that it's the most popular third-party scenario. Still, I doubt it should be included in the article. Therefore, I've moved the text from the article to here, below. - furrykef (Talk at me) 20:26, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
It was included on my CD, but I got mine as an overstock game in, like, 2005, so maybe it was only included in later versions? (And yes, I am sure it was not used.) BTW, I'm American. - Elisk 23:18, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
I have an Australian CD version with a copyright date of 2001 that has the Test of Time scenario, but I believe it will only install if the user selects "Complete Install" or "Custom Install". See the attached image. Ozrygle 13:35, 9 July 2018 (AEST)

The Time Threat Paradox

This scenario takes place starting at the beginning of the 21st century. A race called the Fabians from the future, ruled over by a dictator, return to the past to attempt change their current situation of environmental ruin. You control one of 5 modern day cultural regions and try to get rid of the Fabians by any means possible. There is also the Industrial world civilization from the 19th century.
