Both you the player and the AI will be exploring the power of Agriculture.
You, alone, though will be reexamining the Celts as a civ and the Gallic Swordsman as a UU.
Those that have been students of AU for some time might have a sense of deja vu. There was a PtW course titled AU 206: Gallic Glory. This is NOT the same map. The Celts, in light of their new Agricultural Trait and the, now, 40-shield Gallic Swordsman, are arguably more powerful than ever.
Map tweaking was kept to a minimum, though some was needed to help specific AIs and to make certain things interesting - at least I hope it works out interesting. No coal or oil was moved in the creation of this map.
This particular AU course is available in 3 versions - Stock C3C rules (main link), AU Mod rules (second link), and a semi-stock version (see discussion link for that version) that implements the Industrial Age tech tree as described in the 1.20 Patch readme that has been distributed. Included in each zipfile are 6 SAV files, one for each difficulty from Regent to Sid, so pick whichever "flavor" and level of the game you want to play.
