    I'm not sure about my score, but it must have been enormous and on Emperor. I remember that I conquered all the world except for one tiny sh*thole and had several cities with 32 (I think it was 32) people inside.

    But I remember my fastest conquest victory on Emperor level: 900BC

      So tough to remember, but I remember it was over 300%. IIRC, 352%.

      Of course, I could now run Civ 1 on Emperor, and have 10^10^10 score .

        It was about 280ish... just a dream run, but had to end the game far to quickly than I'd liked to.

            The score I remember is bound to be higher than my score was in reality. My goal was always to conquer all asap and I remember doing it well and truly BC, but can't put a number to it. I used some pretty heavy ICS knowing that I would finish early so I mostly wanted to make sure I cultivated all squares. I also helped many of my opponents so that taking their cities would give me more.

              Whats your highest score by conquest?

              I once conquered the world by about 1200bc (7 on emp) which gave me a score of 178. That was my highest ever score cos I never bothered with space ships although if I'd known you could get scores in exess of 300 I would have tried.

              Also due to a bug in the game I once had a city size 83.
              Are we having fun yet?

                That sounds just like how I remember my last couple of really good games before I called it quits. Same scores and maybe not so early finish. Usually had a few strong cities and many many size 1 & 2 cities eternally supporting settlers. Used Chariot rushes a lot for early encounters.

                    Best: 8%...
                    2 Nights ago, I exceeded even Emperor Nero with 2% in 1800

                    -
                    Bismark- was that 70% or higher?
                    Does anyone have a complete list of all the levels?

                          over 300% easily, bigger games gave great scores, i remember conquering a small world map in about 8-10 turns or so.....it was funny how many civs you could take out by playing the germans....

                          i suspect my best score was alot higher....i recall games that had so many citizens it was uncanny lol

                            Think it was something between 200 and 300.

                            But I can exactly remember the days that I always was enraged to see that no matter how hard I tried never could jump over the 300 ladder

                              how do you people remember your percentage after all these years? I haven't played civ1 since grade school, maybe, MAYBE in junior high. I'm a sophomre in college now, it's been that long since I played

                                i had to look thru' some 100 savegames but most of the times i did play 'chieftain' or warlord so the score was never that high.

                                with prince or king maybe up to 200% - sometimes with luck.
