The 2050 AD - Limit is ohnly for the Score.
If you havent´t won any Victory til this Date your Score is calculated and the Empire with the highest Score is declared winner.

After calculating the Score you can play on forever, as Flight already mentioned.

your global warming effects must be brutal

could you please post a save?

Well, theoretically there isalimit on the number of turns you can play before the game overfows. But that won't be reachable for you in your lifetime, but if you made the game pass on to other people when you can't play it more there would be a day when you couldn't play a single turn more.

But that won't be reachable for you in your lifetime,

I'll bet the game runs out of turns before I run out of books!

Easy to calculate.

If they´ve taken a unsigned Short-Integer for the Turn-Number you can play til turn 65535
If they´ve taken an unsigned Long for Turn-Number you can play til Turn-Number 4294967295

That is as long as they didn´t introduce any artificial Limit

Cool, I've got enough books. But not enough lifespan for either.

It's a long they are using. And add to that the turntime for each turn, so may you calculatye haw löong time a game would take. Remember as the game grows the turns will become longer...

[Gramphos]

Oh, and the year will owerflow before that as it's unsigned, and not adding one everyturn in the beginning.

Currently playing the Egyptians in year 2682 AD. (1.29F, no mods)

I have finally defeated the evil Persians after about 1500 years of warfare. (My French allies got the final blow, which annoyed me.)

Now I am building up and will defeat the evil French. Once I've destroyed them, I'll give up this game.
