The whole world hails Gengis Kahn the conqueror!

[TTG]

I am playing my sixth attempt at trying to beat LVL 5 difficulty on Civilization. This is one beyond emperor (cheiftan is level 0). The year is 340AD and I have conquered the world. It was tough to stay ahead of the other civs with all of their handicaps, and the barbarians attacking every 5 turns made colonization difficult as well. However, through careful planning and use of every strategy I know, I was able to stay ahead in production, colonization, conquering, and technology throughout the whole game.

The best part about playing at this difficulty is that the scoring ratio is actually higher! My score was 1664. This score would be worth 33.3% on Cheiftan, 66.6% of Warlord, 99.9% on Prince, 133.1% on King, and 166.4% on Emperor. The percent score I received was 199%!! That means the ratio is 0.12% per point.

I can now go back to my last save, make the French into a pet civ, and I should be able to reach the same score levels I did at other difficulties. My previous high score was 2793 or so (or 27.9%). A similar score on this difficulty level should yeild 335%. I'm going to archive the saved game for now, though, and see if it is possible to beat the game on level 6. I am going for an all-time high score here.

For those who are interested in playing at level 5 or higher on civ1, it is unnatural and you actually have to use a "cheat" to play at those levels. You can read how to do it on my <a href="http://www.civfanatics.com/civ1/cheats.shtml">cheats page</a>.

TTG, you should really play some Civ2. It will make the transition to Civ3 easier for you. <IMG SRC="http://forums.civfanatics.com/smilies/cwm30.gif" border=0>

Don't you think Civ1 is better than Civ2? Serious, I do think so. Excatly for movies, the first episode is always the best.

Oh, BTW TTG, FYI, it's "Genghis Khan" and not Genghis Kahn
I know something about the subject

TTG isn't going to play Civ3. He's going to beat the game on level 10 before he start that.

Hehe... true true. I can already beat both 5 and 6. 7 is presenting a bit of a challenge. 10 can't be far off though... Now look what you've done! You've challenged me! I won't even be sleeping now for days, just playing civ!

I almost forget those cute icons, until I see yr signature. CIV1 is better at least on graph design. Not only the settler is better than civ2
