Large map with only 3 opponents? That will make for an interesting game.

Looks like a nice play. Wondering which leaders are in the game (I know, I know - Huayna and Hattie!).

I'll be playing, in all this 'spare time' during revision that I've got. Mm-hmm, yeah.

I'll be waitin' on them flowers!

Any questions?

Yeah, I've got a question. :hat:

Just how are we going to win by Conquest in Epic 5 if we can't build any ships? It's now much harder to take cities in a peace treaty and win T-Hawk style, there are no longer any air transports or paratroopers, there's no longer any way to bribe/propaganda cities to your side, and you also can no longer flip cities across a body of water wider than one tile.

Nifty. Well this sure is different.

It may be a form of micro-managment torture but it's a good oppurtunity to hone economic skills. Good map too, all about decisions.

I can't get in via ftp, but this Epic is officially open. (Sorry for putting it in the wrong thread earlier). Until I can ftp in, I have attached the start file to this post so that you can start playing.

I plan on playing this one as well. And I won't be running a poorly-executed One City Challenge this time either.

Hmm, reading what Dark Savant posted above... I wonder if there's any chance we could lure T-Hawk out of retirement for this game to defend his title. This seems like the kind of game he would really enjoy. Civ3 burnout can't last forever, I hope!

Maybe I'll give this one a try after getting beaten to the Space Race by Mao in Aventure 5. Monarch is a shoe to big for me yet I guess, but who cares anyway... I tried a couple of games with HC on SP, but I didn't win any. Another point of motivation...
