MyattEarth V2 18 Civs (BTS)

This map is 152x96, which is the same as a huge map in-game. its full of resources, rivers and goody huts to make a great game! There are 18 civs, all old world civs to allow colonisation of the Americas.This map was made in the in-game worldbuilder tool. It is 14592 squares. all map proportions have been kept accurate, except from England, Japan and some pacific islands, which have been enlarged.

In this download there are 6 brilliant files:

1. The Standard MyattEarth Map

Spoiler :

This is the 18 civs standard version in V1.2 with the following civs:

• Churchill- England
• Saladin- Arabs
• Justinian I- Byzantines
• Qin Shi Huang- China
• Hatshepsut- Egypt
• Zara Yaqob- Ethiopia
• Napoleon- France
• Bismarck- Germany
• Ghandi- India
• Tokugawa- Japan
• Mansa Musa- Mali
• Genghis Khan- Mongolia
• Cyrus- Persia
• Joao II- Portugal
• Julius Caesar- Rome
• Stalin- Russia
• Ragnar-Viking
• Shaka- Zulu

2. MyattEarth with Any Civs

This is great for those who wish to create a scenario using the map or if you just want to play a game with your own civs. You could start a game with all random civs or you can choose on custom game. (The start locations are randomised).

3. Alternative Civilizations

Spoiler :

This map is exactly the same as the Standard map however the Civilizations have been changed to provide a variety of choice.

4. MyattEarth With Randomised Resources

This can be fun as it adds to the excitement and unpredictability of the game, so you can never tell whats going to happen in the game...

5.MyattEarth with all New World Civs

Spoiler :

On this map, it is a reverse to the standard map, as all civs are New World civs. They are the following:

• America
• Aztecs
• Incas
• Maya
• Native Americans

All have accurate starting locations (e.g. The Native Americans start on the Great Plains). so the most interesting stage of gameplay will be the colonisation of the old world, so this is reverse to usual, adding that bit of unpredictability and excitement.

6. MyattEarth Inverted Terrain

Spoiler :

Please note this map is just a concept map however it is still playable. it is basically the MyattEarth map but with the following terrains swapped:
Snow to Dessert
Dessert to Snow

Plains to Tundra
Tundra to Plains

So the previously coldest places ae now the hottest and vice versa. All resources are the same, as are the civs.

Nice looking map, interesting stab at the Mercator Projection. Different from other Earth maps. Keep up the good work.

Any tips how to play this on Marathon and not havig limited turns? It looks like the game on Marathon speed has 500 turns limit.
Sry for new post on old thread.

milanma, just open the file with a text editor by right-cliking on it.

At the beginning of the file, you will see lines like:
- Speed=GAMESPEED_NORMAL
- MaxTurns=500

Change the settings accordingly and save.

When you know how to work with these files (see tutorials), you can change a lot things in them.
