Finished on t292. My typical approach is a "safe" built up to a snowball approach. The overall outcome was inevitable after I took out Siam, but taking that first Siam city was a meat grinder. Monty kept peacing out with Ram. Had to use 3 citadels to do it - Defender of the faith with elephants...

I am still working on mine, around turn 200. Took me way too many turns to get through Siam (tech leader and had defender of the faith). From the way the politics played out he was the best target for me. I've started going after Japan next. @fiddlesticks Nice - how did you know you could built...

My progress on turn 107.

I am in as well. Always looking for a challenge.

I usually play for domination victories on Deity, standard speed. My general strategy is to generate great scientists and avoid engineers. Typically go 1-2 Liberty - finish Honor, Commerce, Autocracy. I'll faith buy great merchants late in the game for the cash to buy CityState allies or mass...

When going for Deity Domination having a vassal like this can be a huge help. You can gift them non-air-base/non-capitol cities as you conquer them, removing the happiness drain (Deity AI has lots of huge crappy cities which take way too long to raze). You always have open borders with them so...

In general, jungle in capital is really bad (maybe the worst, outside of a lot of tundra). For many reasons, again in general: 1. no production - jungle gives no production, and double bad is really long to chop down (vs forest) and doesn't give a production boost when chopped 2. slows your...

Been looking forward to another Quest for Glory! Here is my sitrep on turn 94.

For what it's worth I looked in my MODS folder, and I do seem to have Ingame Editor (v 39) installed. Don't remember installing it, but I have a ton of mods, which I am not using. I am also running Enhanced User Interface.

Tiberiu, so how did it go?

T276 finally took the last capital.

My progress so far.

Tiberiu, Thanks for positing this challenge by the way. Here is my save at 252, decision point for space rush. Also one from turn 198 (closest I have to 200). Looking at your save vs my 198. I have 43 techs vs 42 but you are on a better pace. E.g electronics is 12 turns for you and 14 for me at...

I'd be really curious what happens if the rationalism AIs are not side by side, say Babylon and America, so they can't nuke each other early and often. Would it be possible to beat that? Note that I also went with Sun God for a pantheon due to the amount of wheat around, and a lack of a faith...

Hi Tiberiu, Full disclosure, I played the last 30 turns twice. I don't usually go for science victory (I almost always play domination), so I needed to figure out the optimal strategy to bulbing my scientists, and getting to satellites for hubble, which I thought would be the key to winning this...

This map is "interesting". Was able to get a science victory on turn 295, coincidentally same turn the world congress was founded! Settled 5 cities. Since I didn't know what I was in for, I went for liberty with 1 in honor and 1 in tradition. If I was doing it again, I'd settle the same 5 cities...

Turn 212 victory. Also settled 3 cities.

Edited. Does that look fine?

EDGE 163: Canals Here is an England Pangea scenario. Standard speed, standard size. Although this is a Pangea, you have a fairly isolated coastal start, and also ways to take advantage of England's sea prowess, through smart use of canal cities. My own game I won on turn 268 with a dom...

Finished EDG5 with a turn 277 domination win. Lots of interesting things about this scenario. Went with tradition, then actually finished piety instead of honor, also 3 in rationalism and 8 in autocracy. Tons of faith and culture generation with wine+festivals+monasteries. Hadn't played with...
