That could be an even harder game. One of the things that made this one so difficult was the lack of room to expand. But it'll probably always be that way since overexpanding means you can't defend yourself.

I tinkered a bit with the WB and it seems easy enough, just choose civs then you can move them around by deleting/adding units, so I simply need to generate a good map then swap positions if necessary to get everyone where they are supposed to be.
A dual hemispheres map might actually be better than continents, easier to set up at least. So if anyone's interested just let me know, along with what leader you want to play.

Don't know if it'll be winnable but i would be interested in playing it.

I can look into generating and WB a dual continents map with warmongers on the players continent and peacemongers on the other if anyone is interested.
That sounds like an interesting challenge. Although we had done something similar before but AIs are mixed up. (see my sig)
So put MM, Williem, HC, Hannibal on one land mass.
Human, Shaka, Monty, GK on the other land mass.
Maybe take Churchill as human?

Agree with SB, at least we'll have good defense against the warheads. The real problem'll probably be the other continent.

I agree. The problem is the pure peacemongers are usually not the best civs. Then again I've never seen a controlled game like this where there are no warmongers to hurt them. I also thought of HC, Willem etc but none of those can be trusted, I think the peacemonger continent should have leaders that;'
All have high peaceweights.
Don't attack at pleased.
Trade lots of tech at cautious or better or perhaps even at annoyed (will have a look at xml).
If possible is not a religious nut (will befriend other religions).
SB sounds good, I'll open a new thread with the new game once I'm finished tinkering.

Maybe you can add Zara and Joao, peaceful enough and significantly stronger than the pure peacemongers who don't expand much. These guys tend to go for the space race instead of cultural too.

I went through the XML carefully and have made my choices. The number one priority was getting good techers that are generally peaceful and accepting of neighbours and who I hope will go for space rather than culture. We'll see how it turns out, it will be interesting.

Very compelling thread. I can't help dig it out from the bottom and take a try.
We can find in this thread how the best players in CFC got rid of messy situation: survived the early dow, launched their first kill and won the game. It also illustrates us the variety of warfares in CIV IV: Chariot + HA, Cuirassiers, Rifles, Canons, Bombers+Tanks, ect.
It seems that Samurais have been ignored in this previous games. What a shame for them. So:

Fortunately I'd given some techs to him and stayed No state-religion, he's pleased with me and I asked him for some petty money.
Good to see another finishing play.
You forgot the nukes. This was the only game I used them. A dozens of cities were fallen in the 1st turn of war and half of the world was conquered in 4 turns -- the major reason I dislike the nuclear war. It's as ??? as AP diplomatic victory.
