    2010 November GOTM - The Mediterranean

    Now you can colonize the whole Mediterranean and Black Seas - the Roman Lake, you might say. I tried to get the mountains, rivers, etc in pretty much the right places. And the Suez Canal and Bosphorus Strait both work - you can take a ship diagonally through one way, and still walk your units...

    2010 Halloween GOTM

    This is a variation on the OCC (One City Challenge) called the GCC (Ghost City Challenge) Can you win the game WITHOUT ever founding a city? In other words, you have to use Jack, your initial Settler to conquer the entire world and make it safe for the O'Lantern people, LOL. It's a nice...

    2010 October GOTM - Matrix World

    First I guess I should say that my GOTM's aren't following the old rules. Which is fine with me, since I just recently discovered all the old threads, LOL. Anyway, it might be getter to think of these as "Maps of the Month" instead. For October, I was playing around trying to make a maze...

    Biggest Caravan payoff?

    What's your biggest payoff from a Caravan arrival? I have no idea what my previous one was (maybe in the 60's?) but I just got one that paid off at 101 coins. I think I can state for a fact I've never seen a 3-digit payoff before. Have you?

    Calculation of Spaceship Arrival Time

    Does anyone know the exact formula? I have a bunch of data, and it looks like it's a multivariable equation (duh!) but that it's also a "step function" based on the number of engines. For example, it's pretty clear that If PROPULSION=0, then YEARS:=TONS/20 But if there is 1 engine...

    2010 Aug. GOTM: In Fourteen Hundred & 92, Columbus Sailed the ... SKIES SO BLUE!!??!!

    OK, here's the story. Your planet, the COLUMBIANS, has discovered a new planet with intelligent, but uncivilized lifeforms. Unfortunately, your astronomers have also discovered that in 1492 AD, a ginormous comet is going to crash into the planet, eliminating all life larger than a cockroach...

    2010 July GOTM - Pirates of Antarctica!

    Antarctica has just been discovered, and you have landed in force to take over the continent for the greater glory of.. YOU!! How to win? Simple. Despotic Conquest. Erh, maybe not so simple after all. You have to destroy 12 other civs with nothing more than what you brought with you. There...
