No apology necessary. I had no idea when I asked recently as well haha... I'm at work atm so I can't really go through and find it, but I will reply to this again tonight with the correct thread to downgrade to Classic.

Dude, you should "upgrade" MGE down to Classic version. I started with MGE and after I learned how to roll back to Classic mode, my enjoyment factor increased ridiculously. The MGE diplomacy is so far f*****d it ain't funny...

I've already finished this one. I got lucky with some chariots from huts and decided to switch tack from ICS to all out attack using what little troops I picked up from huts. My points aren't very good, but I think I did it all in BC... though this was a few days back now, so I may be getting my...

Only other way to get done with WC faster is to deliver vans/freight too. That will give you a trade beaker boost that helps speed tech research. But as Mackerel said, there's no way to change other than finishing WC.

I'd love to join you guys if you'll have me. Does anybody mind if I jump in and take a turn soon?

Hi Guys, I've really enjoyed reading through all this and I'm pretty keen to get another succession game up and running? Is anyone else interested? I don't know many of the old GOTM scenarios so maybe someone can recommend something? Scott

Thanks for the opinions gents. I would almost always go with Leos if I have the chance in my normal game, but this ain't no normal game haha.... If the option to get Magellan's arises before Leo's completes, I'll switch. Edit: Turns out the Romans got to Leo's first, so I'll have to settle for...

Well, I finally started playing this scenario in classic mode and I am now at 500AD. Let me tell you something for nothing which you probably all have already worked out. Classic version is ridiculously easy compared to MGE... Example, when I started this scenario in MGE, I got to about 1AD...

cool, thanks for the swift reply Garfield. I'll give them a try tonigh

I've "updated" my MGE to v2.4.2 now, so I'll be hitting this map hard tonight. I do have a couple of q's though. 1. what is the 1-city trick? what are the benefits and how is it done? 2. what is this EC method that Peaster is referring too? Look forward to getting into it and hopefully...

I did all that you mentioned and I got an error for a wing.dll file. So I did a little more searching and found this, http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=399597 from Jokemaster. It looks to be working great now. The game options screen tells me it is running v2.4.2 now instead of MGE...

I'll be trying this tomorrow. Mge is killing me bad haha

Actually, I had another question about versions. I checked last night and I am running version 5.04 of Multiplayer Gold... I presume this is what people refer to as MGE. Does this have any bearing on how I play or the scoring system at game's end?

-1000 = 1000bc ???

Decided to delay gotm127 and gonna give this one a go... this'll be interesting. I plan on learning ALOT from this scenario haha

Before I start this game, I was thinking about dumping some ideas and we can all have a chat about it. Basically, due to the size and difficulty level, just getting people thinking about how they will be tackling it. Am I able to start the new spoiler thread or will I step on someone's toes by...

Sweet, well I'll get a start on it tonight and see how I go. I doubt it will be very well, but it will be a whole lot better than I used to be. Since I've joined here I've learnt so much more. I've played two OCC games on Deity level since I joined here. I had no idea they even existed. I won...

Hi guys, Apologies if I've replied in the wrong place. How do I get involved in this? Is it just a case of playing/winning the game as early as possible? This is my first GOTM so I have no idea sorry. Thanks Scott
