Hmm... Shogun Gunner's post reminds me of Greek expansion across the Aegean Sea.

The greatest delight for man is to inflict defeat on his enemies, to drive them before him, to see those dear to them with their faces bathed in tears, to bestride their horses, to crush in his arms their daughters and wives.

Bongo, you Wittlich and I were downright DASTARDLY in our Napoleonic PBEM!!!! I'm still mourning the end of that PBEM.
P.S. I like your little boy in your avatar! Quite amusing.Haven't been here for ages....

Too bad the second coalition PBEM crashed Come to think of it, I have yet to finish a PBEM in a 'normal' way (well, I play less PBEMs than Paddy anyway )
One have to distinguish between 'normal' games and 'special' games though. The second coalition was a game where we could expose and enhance our insanity. Being a Dastard is so much funDon't eat the yellow snow.

Exploit, shmexploit. If the AI can exploit tech trading to build undeserved tech leads, you can take one luxury in this way.
And that web site, sheesh, they even say that building privateers are dastardly. If it's so dastardly them mod it out!None, Sedentary, Roving, Restless, Raging ... damn, is that all? Where's the "massive waves of barbarians that can wipe out your civilisation" setting?

I wouldn't like to play without the Big Picture opportunities though - as it's the only way to be sure to be able to sell a tech you've discovered before an AI who gets it after you on that turn, it having devalued.
For example, all the restrictions on threaties I agreed with, and these sort of rules can keep the game challenging on the lower levels - ideal if you fancy a tougher game without the 'hole' of the higher levels.

You welcome!
The list of outright cheats did not interest me, as learning them would present a moral quandary of 'breaking the habit'. However, all the dastardly stuff is common ground in both play style and mod making. So I am no 'knight', I'd rather dance naked for ladies and keep one step ahead of their husbands!!

This is not an exploit, but I would build city there or eventually it will be lost to the Aztecs. Bring along a few good defenders and a couple of bombardment units when you do.* A true libertarian is an anarchist in denial.
