CDG 37 – Ramkhamhaeng
Please see the CDG Series Discussion Thread to express yourself if you have remarks and ideas. Some maps in this series use mods. This map uses the DLC map packs, so you will need “Explorers Map Pack”, “Scrambled Nations”, and “Scrambled Continents”, as well as the earlier (and more common) DLC such as “Wonders of the Ancient World”.
Please share your experience playing this map, but if you post in the first page of this thread, use the SPOILER tag if you attach a picture, make a comment about your neighbors, nearby natural wonders, locations of ancient ruins, terrain features, luxes, resources, etc.
Before you download and start playing the map, please take a moment to speculate on your initial thoughts and plans for the game. Which version will you be playing? Will you settle in place? Will you try to found a religion? What are your plans for getting the most from the UA, UB, and UU? What Victory Condition will you be aiming for?
After you play the map, please take the time to post a screen shot relevant to your victory and write about your experience with the map. Could you notice the edits to the map? Did you have any difficulty getting resources? Was this map easier or harder than the typical deity game? What VC did you pursue, and what was your path to victory (or defeat)? What World Wonders did you build? What did you do with religion and how many GP did you faith purchase? How many techs did you steal with spies, and how where you using them towards the end of the game?
The suggested VC for this map is Diplomacy.
Achievements
There are three save files attached to this post! In the spirit of the old IV GotM maps: “Players who choose to play in the Challenger class game must overcome an extra set of obstacles built into their game to provide an extra level of challenge.” The Challenger version is what is shown in the starting screen shot.
With the Challenger and Contender maps, the CS have fewer resources.
With the Contender and Adventurer maps, the player starts with a Worker (stacked with the Warrior) and a Scout (stacked with the Settler).
With the Adventurer map, the AI civs have only one Settler and one Worker (instead of the usual two of each).

Or maybe I'm just choking on hamberder while zipping covfefe which severely hampers my senses.
