Welcome to the twenty-eighth 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: dont 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 Domination. You may win by any VC you wish, as all VC's are enabled, but the results will be posted with fastest finish by Domination victory and then all other VC listed below by fastest time. After our Deity game, thought it might be fun to use Keshiks to exact some revenge. Hope you have some fun with this one.
Good Luck!In this game you will play as Genghis Khan and lead the Mongolian civilization to victory. It's a standard-sized mystery map played at King difficulty and at standard pace. Domination victory is the designated VC for this game, all victory conditions are enabled. You will have until February 15th to complete the game and submit.
Sorry to say that Mac players cannot play this game as their update has not yet been completed.
Please note that you are only allowed to build Oxford University one time.

In this game, you will be playing as Genghis Khan, you possess Mongol Terror. You receive +30% Combat Strength when fighting City-State units or attacking a City-State itself. All mounted units have +1 Movement.
You can train the Keshik, which replaces the Knight. The Keshik possesses a strong ranged attack plus an increased movement rate (5 total), allowing it to perform hit and run attacks very effectively. It also acquires promotions at double the rate of of other units and contributed twice the number of points towards earning Great Generals. You must discover the technology of Chivalry and you need the Horse resource to build it.
You can also earn the Khan, which replaces the Great General. The Khan provides the same combat bonuses as a Great General but it moves at the same rate as the Keshiks and can help heal adjacent units for an additional 2 HP's per turn. This beefed up Great General ensures that his cavalry units will always be battle ready.

Its also used to discuss the game before you start, and post problems with opening the save. Please dont 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.

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).
