What is the highest growth rate and score you could ever reach in Civ2???
 
I don't know about the highest growth rate, but the highest score should be possible to calculate!!

254(255) cities with a population of 126(127) x 2 because they are all happy + 100 points of peace + 400 points for the space ship + 560 for all the wonders + 1250 for all the future techs + 25 for barbarians!

For a grand total of 66343 points (not using the numbers in the parentheses) which would be around 8624%!!

But that high a score is all but unreachable!!!

Please tell me if I missed something or made any mistakes calculating the score.....

An interesting mathematical question.

Shadowdale's calculations are correct except for one variable: for some reason, "all happy" only applies to those "working the land"; i.e., only the first 20 citizens in any city can qualify as happy (for the x2 bonus).

As for unreachable ... it would take at least 42,000 food caravans/freight to max out every city to 127 ({127-c.42} x254 x2) ... when I sober up, I think I can actually mathematically prove that there just aren't enough turns in the game to produce 42,000+ food caravans.

(And sometimes, I really hate mathematics!!!)
 
Good job on the Math guys... If I were a math teacher I wpuld be impressed. But sinse I am a crack head (well not really, but I ain't no math teacher) I don't care. <IMG SRC="http://forums.civfanatics.com/ubb/tongue.gif" border=0>
BTW, how exactly is this OFF TOPIC from CIV????? Heee Heee Heeee, just wondering.

Well, Shadowdale, you're going to be the one closest reaching this score! Just a few years to go (50 I believe?). Score a 3400% and make us civfanatics proud!

Closing this topic because a topic with nearly the same title posted by the same person (TURK) is just 3 topics down.
