GOTM64 spoiler

Finished at 430 AD and didn't suffer any probs with the scenario - except for those of my own making.

I built a temple (or was it a barracks - I forget) and then sold it straight away and bribed Rome. Never had a barb attack me. Built a palace and started conquering.

I should have finished sooner (maybe 300 or so) but my management of my ships and crusaders was lacking - I tended to put too many troops on an invasion, then had to ship a few which were never needed off to the next battle. They should have already been there if I worked a bit harder at it. Oh well...

A fun game though, with most of my trading done with India.

The most annoying things I had happen was when I tried to do an 'instant switch' of governments by discovering Feudalism during an Oedo year... I discovered the tech, but, alas, it didn't give me the usual option to revolt as it does when you normally discover a government tech.

I can't belive the many stupid things I did in this game though. The worst was deciding to use a group of un-demanded (extra) caravans to build the Hanging Gardens, only to realize later that I was close to the discovery of railroad and to have it expire a turn later.

Sorry, chief - your "worst" should have been forgetting that Feudalism is not a government tech... thinking of Fundy?

I've got a small problem with this game. I eliminated the last AI, I saved the game before end of the turn, I hit ENTER and the guillotine showed up, etc. Then it asked me if I wanted to continue or quit. As I didn't want to exit the game I said I wanted to play on. Later, when I prepared my saves for submition, I reloaded the last save to verify it and note my score. I hit ENTER and the game didn't end !!!! I am the only one in the game according to the MPE foreign advisor report, and I don't understand.
My question is for the Duke , I guess : it is ok to sent this save file? Hope it is because I didn't have so much time last month I played a lot last few days and I really want to submit.
Yes, send in the save you have.

Just a usual mental snafu on my part. Yes, Fundamentalism. ;)

Something similar happened to me (except I had UN instead of MPE), but when I ended my turn the guilotine screen came up
