I'd like to have some of the good civvers give me some tips...

...if I post a saved game and screenshots in here, Monarch or higher leveled, would ya'll fire opinions at me?

I plan on having:

No: Native Huts
Yes: Raging Barbs
Yes: Advanced Start (default gold)
Yes: Random events
Marathon speed

I plan on using Terra, but I'm very open to other pre-set maps or scripts.

I'm leaning towards Ramses of Egypt, since I don't really know how to use him and my noble and prince tactics just stopped working.

I use BUG and BAT with the improved AI mod. Will this prevent you from opening my saves?

Instead of asking if you can... why not just do it and see who replies? As long as the mods you're running are common a lot of people will be able to help you out anyways.

Okay doke.

As far as I know, BUG and BAT shouldn't affect the saves, except possibly for requiring the correct mod name, which is easy to get around. It would be nice to know which version of the Better AI (I assume that's what you meant by improved AI) you're going to use though, because new versions of Better AI are coming out pretty regularly.

I love marathon speed. It makes the game so much better and realistic (seriously, how would it be blitzkrieg if turns were by year?)

I'll make sure to download the latest version before I start. I'm trying to finish my current game before I start this one up, though, just because I'm actually winning... << >>
