This thread is somewhat of a spoiler for Gotm18-Celts so if you have not yet completed that game but still plan on submitting then you should probably avoid this thread.

This thread is for player timelines and progress reports to track and score progress of this Quick Game so that you can compare results to the real Qsc18-Celts game when they are released in about 10 days.

This game is setup for you on Warlord difficulty. DO NOT SUBMIT this game to the GOTM or QSC scoring submissions or a big burly caveman will come to your house and smash your computer into a thousand tiny bits. It is very important that you do not post about this game in the main Gotm discussion threads at this time. But after the GOTM game closes you will be free to post questions and ask for specific help on any issues that you find when you play this REDUX verison of the game.

The way you should play the game for the first 120 turns is to think carefully about what you are doing and take some key timeline notes about what you do in the game. You can find lots of good examples of timelines in the QSC results threads in the main GOTM forum.

Divide your time line up into nice concise 30 turn blocks of time plus you want to take a break exactly at 1000bc. Here is a brief schedule outline:

turn 30 - first timeline break (no save file required)
turn 60 - second timeline break - 1525bc save file required
turn 80 - 1000bc save file required to compare to the real Qsc
turn 90 - 775bc third timeline break - (no save file required)
turn 120 - fourth timeline break - 170bc save file required

You need to complete play an report your timeline events through turn60 by the end of the day on Friday, April 25th if at all possible.
Hold off and do not post any information about turns 61 through 120 until after Monday April, 28th. This will provide a little break for any discussion and will also help to keep the group together abit.

After you complete to turn 120, there will be a short discussion break and then you will be free to play the rest of the game if you wish.

We will use the QSC scoring format to designate a winner and a runner up for this warlord group when we reach the turn 120 mark.

REMEMBER that you must have read and followed the setup instructions for Gotm18-Celts in order for this game to run on your software without crashing. We know the game works perfectly so 99.995% of all crashes will absolutely be traced to failing to read and follow the setup instructions.

Good luck in your game and remember to share and have fun. ;)

Here are your save files:

Redux18 Warlord for PTWv1.14f or PTW v1.21f

Redux18 Warlord for Civ3v1.29
 
Dear Cracker,

I have downloaded this (for PTW v1.14f) and it comes up at Monach difficulty - Have I done something wrong?

Sorry about that. I fixed the PTW warlord file.

Note to self: Double check all Piece-o-crap PTW files because the PTW scenariao loader has a mind of its own and can do cryptogenic stuff. ;)
