Variant: None. Your hands are left untied for this game.

Scoring: This event has custom scoring. SCORING IS OPTIONAL. You are not required to track your score if you prefer not to do so. Due to the nature of this game's scoring, you do not have to screenshot all points claimed, but you will have to keep a manual tally of some kind on hand.

Scoring for this game based on gold derived from pillaging. For each gold piece that you receive from pillaging tile improvements, add one point to your score. You may re-pillage the same tile as often as you like, but only gold pillaged from tile improvements counts. (The gold from capturing/razing cities does not.) You will have to determine the optimum balance between wrecking the AI economies and allowing them to build up to derive the maximum amount of pillaging gold.

To remove the possibility for score-milking over the final 150 turns, only points scored up to 1900AD will count. Any pillaging carried out after 1900AD will have no effect on your score.

Results will be listed in order of score.

Closing Date: Monday, April 20. Reports due by the end of April 21, your local time.
