Looking forward to playing this Game of the Whatever.

I would be hard put to move the settler here, since it looks pretty good for RCP3. But worker to cow could reveal what RCP3 looks like in the SE. If the coast there is too close, a walk upstreams is likely.

I can find little time for civving at the moment, though.

Hmm. Not a lot of experience with small maps or Japan. Seems predisposed towards a pointy stick VC and I was so hoping to try another diplo win. Might be a long game to the UN sharing an island with 2 other Civs.

 

[GamezRule]

I'm gonna give this a try, even though I have played PTW twice and Vanilla once!

 

[Memento]

Hmm, after the Victory Sreen my Monitor is white and PTW crash. Several times the same.
Can i send the Save before victory?

Editlay the last Round on an other PC and send the real Save
