I thought a PTW comparison game generate some interest, since not everyone has Conquests yet and it has some nasty bugs at the moment anyway.
So, attached is a 4000BC save. You are the Egyptians, on Emperor level. There are 3 gems and a river right by you. Unfortunately there are 8 mountain tiles as the price. Overall it is a tricky start, that needs to be played precisely.
The challenge is to launch as early as possible........nothing else matters.
I have played the game through, with an acceptable but not amazing time of 1585AD. Be warned, however, this is my first (and probably only ) PTW game, though rumour has it I played a game or two of vanilla a while back.
Taking my rustiness into account 1500 should be a reasonable target I'd say. I'll post thoughts on the game and some saves if there is interest and some players have a shot. At the very least I hope I will get a chance to see what players I should keep an eye on for Conquests, especially those that have joined or vastly improved since I stopped playing Civ3.
Good luck.
