      lol thanks, I only really contact people through icq, so add me.
      Its always good to play someone new.

      I remember the no city challenge we played... fun but surprisingly easy... don't remember only building units though, could add a new angle of difficulty.

      I started the gigagame. Going well, I only fear the key is trade, which I am only begining to master. My exploration goes quite well and my civ size, but I'm worried I'm not up to speed on trade. Will be very curious to see how other people played this one. I've recently gone early rep, having huge happiness problems... HG on the way...

                  Of course, it didn't work because I tried to play 2.42. It works like a charm with my UCC CD. I have played past 1AD and shall post a few details within a few minutes.

                    Some details at 1AD

                    OK it's a tiny island, but quite hospitable.
                    I have built Col, HG and Marco, but the Roman civ remains a small one: 5 cities, 27 squares worked and 25 shields/turn.
                    Come on smash! I bet you can beat that .

                    BTW SG2 do you wish early conquest or early launching?

                      I have started the deep south game, and am doing well. My small island has built many wonders. A couple of interesting observations: Barbarians did not show up until very late in the game. No matter, I was prepared for them. I kept my initial four cities for a long time. Marco polo's showed that my rivals did not expand like they could have on a large map. Late in the game, I sent a trireme and a settler and found the english lands. I started building cities there, and only then did my rivals match me.

                        The problem with this is the ai is also stuck on small islands.

                        My first goal was Mapmaking and The Lighthouse(duh).Then Marco's.Here I traded much,gifted,demanded tribute and shared maps.
                        I traveled the poles until Lighthouse and found unihabited land pretty quick.Soon settlers were sailing their way to form new colonies.

                        Its going along almost like a normal game.At 1 ad:

                        12 cities(5 on mainlannd)
                        23 techs
                        Lighthouse,Marco's and Cope's.128 sheilds of Mich's finished.
                        500,000 square miles
                        870,000 citizens

                        47 squares(including city centers)
                        51 sheilds produced

                          Either...go where you think the game leads you. I will probably try conquest as I've just taken Athens (Sun Tzu) and bribed Sparta (Great Wall). However, I'm well past 1AD!

                            I will also do conquest most likely.I captured The Wall in Athens,and,along with my War Academy,it seems logical to conquer.
                            Closing in on 1000AD though and only 1 civ down.Navigation and Magellan's on board so I can get to them a wee bit quicker.

                              I knew this would happen, since ALL my early scouts got killed by barbs. You are sure going to play a winning game (at least compared to mine ). Do you intend to rehome caravans?

                                La Fayette ... the game is telling you to find your Michelin guide to space travel I am building plenty of caravans but not rehoming.
