Early Landing Game

[Lieni]

ElephantU tells some interresting Links in the "Teach me about caravans" thread. I checked them out could learn a lot from solos strategies.
Specially the Early Landing Game makes me kind of curious. Solo shows an Early Landing Game where he reaches Alpha Centauri at 1276. I read the chronology of this Game and tried a lot of times to do the same, but i was never able to launch the SS before 1800 on deity level. Out of about 30 Games, not even one had such a nice start like Solos Game.

Unfortunately, i cannot download Solos saved games that should be attached on this page. Maybe the webmaster deleted these files there. Sometimes there were also some Early Landing Games at the GOTMs, but there is no way to download them.

Anyway, i ask if anyone has an Early Landing Game at the moment, that is in the final stage? It would be nice to see how it should looks like in the end... this would probably improve my Game...

Thank you, greetz Lieni

There are some even better games over at Apolyton.Net for Early Landing examples. Look through the Strategy and General forums for threads titled "Early Landing Comparison Game", most of which were last year (2003). The last one had both Solo and Zenon landing on AC before AD500, which is pretty impressive within the rules expressed (no caravan rehoming and no hut popping). The advantage of looking at those games is that they include detailed logs posted on the thread.
