I really loved the idea and the setup of this adventure even if I did fail miserably at it. My pregame thoughts were to try to get a religion out of the gate seeing as we started with mysticism and translate that into an eventual cultural victory. I tend to suck at warfare and generally play a peaceful builder styel of game.
Well when I lost the race for hinduism early on I decided right then and there I'd switch modes and go for either a conquest or domination victory. Well if you read the first paragraph you already know I have know idea what I'm doing when it comes to war
so this was already a bad idea. I raced out to get a pretty early tech lead and I built some wonders such as stonehenge, the parthenon, SoZ, Mausoleum, TGL and remained the general tech leader all game. I was the first to Music and would easily have been the first to liberalism if I had continued. However 2 very failed attempts at war with DeGaulle got me discouraged and while there was enough time left in the game for me to patch it up and go for a cultural victory there wasn't enough real life time to do so. So at 770AD I retire dissatisfied with my performance yet again and eagerly await the next epic. I failed to see where you capture the real life time info when I was going through the end game screens but by my rough estimates it was about 5-6 hours (I know pathetic). I just love to pretend I know how to Micromanage 8) .
Thanks for putting this one together and I plan on attempting a shadow game of this one when I have time!
