Course originally offered at MZO.
"Apolyton University is a school of strategy, where students sharpen their Civ3 skills and share their experiences in a series of thematic games. When playing an Apolyton University game, gaining and sharing knowledge is more important than getting a high score, or even winning the game. Participants are encouraged to share their strategy after the game, and even to try several attempts.
For single-player games we have developed the AU mod, whose main purpose is to challenge the player with a need for deeper strategy. To accomplish that goal, the mod tries to improve the AI and present the player with more strategic decisions, while changing as little as possible." -- alexman

"So for all the new players and for all of the AU veterans, here is AU@MZO 401: They came down from the Mountains.
Your assignement for this course is to show 2 things:
* 1- How your civilization choice helped you win this game. Show how your traits and UU were a large part of your success.
* 2- You are perched atop a mountain. You need to get down of it. Show how your first move set a strong opening for the rest of your game.
The game is meant to be played with PtW 1.21f. [edit: But can be played in 1.14f with or without the AU Mod.]
Most of all, have fun while playing this game. Do not yell at your pixels, it might be a challenge! " -- Konquest02
Spoilers and AARs can be found on MZO: AU 401: Strategy and Spoilers
I have attached a zip file with the original file and the AU Mod version. Sorry Civ 1.29f players, this is PTW only.
Edit: Kon had to make corrections to the original scenario, so for the 2 of you who downloaded it earlier, be sure to get the new version.
