This is a wartime scenario, however it gives many possibilities for
empire builders fans. Anyway when it comes to ressume your achivments
only political\territorial goals counts.
Every civilization has its own principia according to their historical
aims. You can find it "MOREINFO.TXT" in section called "OBJECTIVES".
The game proceeds in five years turns, roughly covers period from
the Crusaders time to the fall of Constantinople.
The Byzantines are the protagonists, trying to protect as much of
ancient roman legacy as they can, while staving off the Ottoman\Seljuc Turks and defending its borders against Venetians.
You might initially want to play as the Byzantines, since they and
their fall in 1453 are the most common known history facts of that period.
However playing one of the naval powers is strongly recommended as their struggle for worlds domination is the main theme of that scenario.
Most civs should make an interesting game, although styles of gaming will
be completly different.
For a tougher challenge, try the Pisans, as their only advantage in
early stage is "Il Principe" wonder (Great Wall).
If you prefer warlike civs with an aim of conquering the whole world
try French\Holy Romans or Turks.
