GOTM170 Prime Minster Boris Johnson of England

We all knew this had to come some time, sooner or later: England attempting to be Diplomatic. Of course one of the prime diplomats of the long and illustre tradition of this island nation will come to the rescue and help us finish this challenge: None other than Boris Johnson.

In game number 170 of the classic game of the month series, you will rule as Prime Minister Boris Johnson over England, and the Waves. It is a Commercial and Expansionist civilization which starts the game with the knowledge of Alphabet and Pottery. The sponsored victory condition for this contest is the Diplomatic victory, which is achieved by being elected Secretary General of the United Nations. Games finished in any other way are not eligible to win this contest.

This is an Emperor-level game designed by me, Più Freddo. The English unique unit is the Man-O-War, a very strong Frigate. In order to make it useful, it has in this game a lethal land and sea bombardment ability and its price has been halved. Since it comes in just in time for a sensibly timed Golden Age in the beginning of the Industrial Age, the Man-O-War will be very useful to use as a trigger, if nothing else.

This is your start position:

hahahaha, what a nice idea, Piu! i would love to give it a try, ... but most likely I won´t find the time for it. maybe a few turns only, just to get some touch of the game. ;) thanks for keeping the spirit up!
