    WOTM 69 (Saladin) Final Spoiler - Game Completed

    Oh wow thanks for the heads up DSpirit. I've visited the results page many times, but somehow missed those files. What a great map. Someday I hope to finish one of these GOTMs as they were meant to be played, submit a save, and be a participant rather than just an onlooker. Sure is a lot of...

    WOTM 69 (Saladin) Final Spoiler - Game Completed

    Hi - I must have played this map about a dozen times till 800ADish. Like the others, Kublai was just too overpowering. Obviously replaying a game isn't the point of GOTM, but I'm a very casual player, still learning, explore many of the GOTMs and was very intrigued by the map. Very nice...

    News: WOTM 42 - Starts 10 March

    ah those numbers make sense. Guess the tech requirements are about equivalent as well. Cavs sound like the go-to unit if there was one in the game. I've played about a dozen civ4 games now but haven't had a game last long enough to get the opportunity to try out Cavs. I keep telling myself...

    News: WOTM 42 - Starts 10 March

    Alan H helped me get my game configured right and now I am good to go for this month! Agree, that is a nice start. Funny reading comments about evil mapmakers :). I'm too new to have experienced this yet. Musketeer 2 movement points = cheaper than cavs + the defense bonus. Sounds...

    GOTM75 Final Spoiler

    Unfortunately I have some game settings/installation files botched on my computer so have to resolve these before turning in games. :sad: Until then, just wanted to say that I had a fun time with the map and thnx for putting this together. I am learning a lot from playing these community...

    News: WOTM41 Results and Congratulations

    Those are nice scores. Always fun to check out these saved games and see the different games. Thought I submitted my game in the proper place, but guess not? I think Jovan was faster tho by a few turns (840AD for me I think). Oh well it was fun. Will try to figure out where I went wrong.

    WOTM 41 Final Spoiler

    bbp: Thnx for link. I'm still learning how to work specialists, but this is very helpful. Am trying out the GOTM75 and would be a big help to be able to bulb some tech that's for sure. Ronnie: I think around 900ADish? Look forward to playing next game.

    GOTM 75 First Spoiler -- 1AD

    fun game. Thought I could make it in one sitting all the way to 1AD, but had to take a break around 900BC. This definitely seems to take longer. :crazyeye: 1st time playing GOTM, Vanilla, and Marathon! :) Pretty new to game and having fun learning. I am just cheesing as I did in my WOTM...

    News: GOTM 75 - Starts 1 February

    That's a lot of desert (appropriate for race)! I haven't played on the Marathon speed yet alone large maps. I'll give it a shot and see if my laptop can handle it. :) Haven't done a cultural game yet so might give that a shot as others have suggested as well (Civipedia here I come)...

    WOTM 41 Final Spoiler

    Thnx for such a fun game. :) I prob got away with my cheesy play because the map was so linear. I basically just blindly pushed my cats-sword-axe-chariots down the alley until they hit the end. Would have been slaughtered with this strat if had spawned in middle of continent. My...

    WOTM 41 First Spoiler - 1 AD

    I feel kinda dumb after reading all of this as am probably playing the English all wrong and not taking advantage of the income/tech. Instead, I'm out bashing Ai's with stone age units lol. AG-AH-BW-wheel-pot-sail-mas-myst-writ-pol-priest-mon Built only 4 cities on Island: #1 SIP #2...

    News: WOTM 41 - Starts 9 January

    Thnx ZPV. Wasn't sure if I was doing this correctly as was confused by those "Session start" logs in the replays at those continuations. So I guess those are normal logs when you resume your game? I was under the impression that Session restart logs only represented games that had been...

    News: WOTM 41 - Starts 9 January

    Hi civfanatics.com :) Just got a "new" to me laptop that can finally handle some of these more "modern" games that been dying to try out lol. New to Civ4, but have been playing a few of the older WOTMs for the past month. The maps have been really well put together and been having...
