Game examples (save games)

I'm about done with my V29 game, it's getting to a point where I can't be bothered to play anymore with no reasonable pollution control available and empty techs starting to show up. I've got most ancient era wonders and pretty much everything later built in my capital, which is also the holy city of all the religions except for Druidism and Scientology which isn't founded yet).

The focus of the game was mostly on building the strongest possible city out of my capital, and an empire to support it.

Save here

The game was played in v29 with a few modified XML files. You can grab those here, if you want it exactly the way it I played it, although most of the change are minor. The only significant ones are the removal of courthouse maintenance cost to make them actually useful when you get them, and changing the advanced Pattakys to use <BuildingClassNeeded> instead of <PrereqBuildingClass> so they're not unduly nerfed on huge+ maps.

Edit: Forum ate the attached screenshots so putting them here:

Some observations:
Persia took hundreds of turns to get out of its minor nation status, and Ethiopia still hasn't. Considering my tech level, it's pretty clear that the tech diffusion system is not nearly strong enough.
The two major AI's vassalised all the smaller ones once they had the tech, whereas none of them would let me do so even when I was obviously the strongest nation around. This doesn't seem seem like smart behavior for the small civs.
Mayans still haven't spread to all the available space on the tundra or islands. They also neglected conquering Persia before it became their vassal, and are similarly ignoring Ethiopia.
 
I'm really too bored with this mod, too much to build compared to turn times, there are too many buildings in this game..

Sorry, but still lurking for the future editions, maybe I'll start playing again..

Here's a save from my last game, babylonia rules with 27cities, soon to be a tech leader etcetc...

... too much to build compared to turn times....

That's why I play this mod only in "Eternity" speed mode. You should give it a try.
After turn 500 it will be a lot of fun :)

...soon to be a tech leader etcetc...

Yeah, I usually stop a game myself once I see I am winning soon... but the next game I change parameters so it`ll be harder. And tell Koshling what stupidities the AI did so in your next game you can`t exploit it again
 
This might be normal, but in my v29 game, two of us have (rather a lot of) Sloops of War, but no-one has Sloops or Barbary Corsairs. We may be building Privateers before either of those are seen.

The barbarian Corsairs have just appeared...their ships are Carracks!!!:confused:
