here it is:
my 2nd self-created CiV.1.DOS MAP / SaveGame -
find the 1st here ---> http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=118661

WORLD OF ICE (CHiEFTAiN LEVEL)
1 huge landmass continent
(~80% land, ~20% ocean at map)

(small section from map -
<< CLiCK >> For Picture
at IMAGESHACK picserv)




i hope
you will like this map -
have a good time playing it. :)
i did need ~ 16 hours
of work to make it look best.
...
simply imagine a situation -some 1000 years-
after an "ice-age"...
(comets from space, atomic war, in-the-beginning... etc.)
where the tribes start again at "zero" -
don't worry -
you will always find good spots for cities... ;)

!!!-SPOiLER-!!!
(mark the 'whiten' text to see (better) -
DON'T MARK if you don't like to know about it.)

i don't want to tell you too much about it
every hint else would maybe spoil your fun.
maybe this:
i did play 3 games and changed a lot while playing this scenario -
for example i did see
that the MONGOLS ALWAYS did overtake all other opponents
so i did decide to isolate the MONGOLS on a seperate island -
'the Mongols' destroy/conquer any other tribe the first centuries
but 'they' are too stupid to develop seafare
and
land at 'our' big continent before 1000 A.D. -
so they start building wonders of the world (instead?) -
take a look that you build your colossus first...
;)


the attached 2 SAVEgame files
Civ.1.DOS needs this 2 SaveGame files!
down below
are
CHiEFTAiN LEVEL

that means:
it's enough time & space to explore,
you have enough time to build 2 or 3 big cities
before your enemy is pressing -
you can explore that continent without haste.
.
.
.
attached SAVE GAME fileS --->
Ramesses of the Egyptians in CHiEFTAiN LEVEL
in 3980 BC


attention:
i have to rename CiV.DOS files here at forum
because i can't attach Civ.DOS MAP or SVE file extensions directly
in a "civfanatics forum" (very strange, but sadly true). :sad:

so the attached
Civil0.txt is NO TEXT file - it's the Civil0.MAP file
Civil0.sav is NO CivNet file (or else) - it's the Civil0.SVE file

BOTH files are in need to load a map / scenario into CiV.DOS:
Civ.DOS needs 2 savegame files -
you start as
Ramesses of the Egyptians in CHiEFTAiN LEVEL
in 3980 BC.



RENAME
Civil0.sav --> Civil0.sve
Civil0.txt --> Civil0.map


and copy this 2 renamed files into your CiV folder to play... ;)

NOTE:
the attached files are "OPEN" for edit (them again)
so they are bigger as usual -
if you access these files in CivDos and save them again
they 'melt' to normal size
-
but these files attached here are 'editable'
in the CivDOS MAP edit for Excel (after renaming, of course)!!! :D

(please save the game first within your CivDOS.1
to change the size of the file to 'normal') ...
 
same ice-age map:

Play the BARBARiANS at Chieftain Level... :D

Bohemian fun lovin' criminals have overtaken
the beautiful wealthy ancient City of Sumer in 1800 B.C. ...

You are Attila,
the Boss, the Leader of this Pack.
You're rich. You're evil.
You search & destroy.
Smash down all that boring & stupid tribes in ice-age world.

Buy their cities, mess-up all you can find.

Make ice-age world an evil barbarian place. :D

But:
Hurry up -
you just can build Legions,
sometimes / later
you may get
evil leaders, evil cannons, evil musketeers and evil transport ships

out of nowhere (as usual). :D

as usual #2:
RENAME
Civil0.sav into Civil0.sve
Civil0.txt into Civil0.map

and copy/paste it into your CiV directory.
