It just occurred to me that we missed the chance for a rather amusing challenger save... Ooops! Just miscommunicated an instruction to the settler - he's just founded your capital on the spot!

Or the 'yellow' bands are much thicker than in the real Swedish flag :-)

Well to settle, we need to escape the jungle. Foggazing, it looks to me like the best chance of doing that is either North or South, since East and West mostly seem to be more jungle. Also, whichever way the settler moves is the direction we're probably going to have to settle in: That's...

I think it would be difficult to change the deadline right now when we're so close to the existing deadline. Once the game has already started, changing the dates requires someone to carefully change raw database entries, so we prefer not to do that unless there's a really good reason (such as...

Yes, it counts as cultural - which is what it is as far as the game is concerned. There was a short period after it was first discovered that you could get a quicker cultural victory by using a lot of espionage when we attempted to distinguish straight cultural from espionage-cultural, but we...

Where to settle? That's a huge decision in OCC because if you make a sub-optimal choice, you're stuck with that as your only city for the entire game. I think I'd go for settling on the marble. Allowing for moving, you get your worker 4 turns earlier, plus the rice and an additional floodplain...

Imperialistic trait.... +50% production of settlers - on one city challenge!! Gee, thanks @kcd_swede - so generous! :lol:

BOTM 269: Julius Caesar of Rome. This time it's time to go crazy! You have a completely unedited fantasy realm map. And a tough difficulty level to boot. Your one possible asset is that Rome has a very cool unique unit! Game settings: Playing as: Julius Caesar of Rome Rivals: 6 AIs...
