Welcome everyone to my next Role Play Challenge, the Next Generation. These games are different from the Classic Role Play CHallenges in that I focus on a non-leader from the standard CIV set. I hope this game becomes less controversial than the Prophet M was, 
Here we have a game where I will play as the fictional, well perhaps not fictional but a distant future leader, Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the USS Federation of Planets. Those unfamiliar with this leader, please goggle "Start Trek, The Next Generation" to fill yourself in on it!
There has been a major malfunction on the USS Enterprise resulting in ship distruction and time travel, landing the crew back to earth, and of all places in Botany Bay on the eastern shore of Australia in the year 4000 BC. They are greated as gods by the aborigenies however they are quickly informed correctly and are simply taken as their leaders. Records of primitive earth (anything pre-2050) are very shakey thus our Captain may have slightly altered views of the true nature of our leaders
, this is mostly because of world war III, IV, and V. In addition, without the Enterprise computer our intelligent crew has no idea how to start rebuilding their spaceship, and must start from scratch although they have knowledge of the wheel at least! Yet, their creed of the Prime Directive still applies and they are not allowed to interfer in what goes on in the mainlands of the world, although they may defend themselves as they see fit.
Game settings and Rules
Emperor Difficulty, Epic Speed
Standard Earth-18 map
We are playing with Louis XIV traits as Picard was of French origin, and the UB Observatory sort of fits. Thus Europe is less crowded.
Rules
1) Picard can only win via Space Race.
2) Primer Directive: We cannot settle on any mainlan continents and must stay in Australia or Indonesia. We cannot attack anyone on the Mainland, nor raise any cities.
3) Prime Directive: we cannot trade a technology that we have a monopoly on since we cannot alter earth';s history (at least too much!).
Our Leader
And the Abyssmal start
Ugh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One weak sugar resource up north, otherwise no food in Botany Bay! I could use alot of suggestions here!
By the way, can I have a list of Australian cities! Perhaps Indonesian ones also.

and I can tell you, it's desert + desert + desert + a few human buildings here and there, very rare, but nothing even near to what one would call "village". 
There is no food in mainland Australia.
