Civilization 5 - Game of the Month Training Series Game 22
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\//////////////////////////////////////////
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\//////////////////////////////////////////
Welcome to the twenty-second game in the GOTM V Training Series! There are plenty of new features in Civilization 5 to explore and the Training Series games will allow new and old GOTM fans to try out these new features in a friendly environment. You are all encouraged to post your questions, stories, advice, tricks and failures in the dedicated game threads described below. You can read more about the GOTM and Training Series concept in this thread. Before going into the details of this game, we would like to ask you to abide to our most sacred rule: don’t replay any turns. If you make a mistake, accept it and try to recover. It's better to do the bad moves in the Training Series instead of in the actual GOTM competition, once it starts.
In this game, the designated VC is Culture. You may win by any VC you wish, as all VC's are enabled, but the results will be posted with fastest finish by Culture victory and then all other VC listed below by fastest time. Good Luck!
In this game you will play as Montezuma and lead the Aztec civilization to victory. It's a standard sized lakes map played at King difficulty and at standard pace. Culture victory is the designated VC for this game, all victory conditions are enabled. You will have until November 15th to complete the game and submit.
Welcome back to our Mac friends, hope you stay with us for some time to come.
Please note that you are only allowed to build Oxford University one time.

In this game, you will be playing as Montezuma, you possess Sacrificial Captives. You gain culture for your empire with each enemy unit killed.
You can train the Jaguar, which replaces the Warrior. The Jaguar is a fairly weak early-game military unit only the Aztecs can build. The unit fights more effectively in Jungle and heals damage when it kills an enemy unit, unlike the Warrior it replaces. You start the game with Jaguars and do not need to discover a tech nor have a resource to build it.
You can also build the Floating Gardens, which replaces the Water Mill. The Floating Gardens provide +15% food and each lake tile worked provides +2 food. It can only be built in a city on a river or lake. You must discover the technology of The Wheel to build it.
This is where you will start:
Information about threads associated with TSG
TSG Announcement thread (this one). This thread is used to announce the game and clarify the settings and rules (don’t be afraid to ask questions). It’s also used to discuss the game before you start, and post problems with opening the save. Please don’t post any information from a game you have started. Instead use the next thread.
Game In Progress thread. This thread is used to discuss the game once it's on the way. There are no reading or posting restrictions as such (apart from normal decency), although we encourage players to use the spoiler tags for screenshots. Here you can post questions related to the game and share your achievements/anger/frustration/victories while you play.
After Action Report thread. In this thread you can post the results of your game. Please state (preferably in the post title) your victory date and score, as recorded in the Hall of Fame, and the most important: your path to glory! , We will create a separate thread with the results at the end of the two week period (sorted by date and score). Players are encouraged to provide feedback on the game. Some players like to replay the game, and although we will not record the results from a replay, you can still post your new experiences. The game will not be closed as such, but after two weeks, the results will be compiled, and will not necessarily be updated with reports coming in after the finish date.

This is correct. Random size lakes, all sizes.
Thinking it is a bit more like pangea with an east-west world wrap?
