[SCG]

I want to wait for the Fundy gov't,


But I'll give this a shot, likely tomorrow depending on my schedule.

If you want to play, go ahead of me.

couple of questions? are diplomats considered land military units? if not, that means we can explore with them and use as appropriate and allowed once we get mapmaking. Also, we get a hut with a diplomat that finds something other than gold, science or barbs.

Also, if we are confined to our home continent city wise I'm curious as to reasoning behind the placement of our first 4 cities. since we are on a continent other than #1, we know the boundaries and could probably have planned out the layout beforehand - or maybe we did and i just don't understand it?

The SGs quaffing coffee

Made some roads, explored the rest of the island, built two cities, got us about 40% to Monarchy.

Log

2150 Heaven's Gate at (100, 218) with hidden special at ( 103, 217)

2100 Temple in the Mean City...still mean

1950 Writing discovered --> Monarchy

1800 Pool of Grace at (107,227) with hidden special and something in the sea.

My vision is to build a few more cities, link up the roads, explore with dips, do some trade and grow to our fulfillment.

I presume you left out the word allow in

(Allow) All Wonders except SoL

Yes??

I have the save and will play now if that is agreeable. Pretty, LITTLE Island could have been the name for this I think.

The Rules as laid down by the Dean of The Academy

This is a Giga map - therefore MGE.
Victory by conquest, but the AI can build spaceships

At all times:

* Spotless Reputation
* No bribing - except Barb units
* No nukes

Before 1850AD and Hard Fundamentalism

* No attacking except on Holy Home Continent - may repulse invasions
* No military land units or Settlers or Engineers may leave the Holy Home Continent
* Any goverment at any time, BUT once Fundamentalism is discovered we MUST take it at the next oedo year and stay in it thereafter
* All Wonders except SoL - only the except SoL part is mandatory

After 1850 and Fundamentalism

* The gloves are off boys - but remember the first 3 rules

The SGs in concert

We give the 4000BC start below and are starting off - will post the next save in an hour or three
