Civ 1 scores... Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

For nostalgy's sake, what is your's best civ1 score ever?

Mine is 262 % on emperor.

[edit]: you can also tell how did you do it (if you can remember )

I was russian, on earth map, 7 civs, had a good start. During first century i conquered a lot (maybe 3 or 4) of opponents, and found 2 or 3 advanced tribes from huts... I would call that a pretty good start.

Ended up 1865 40,000 colonists to Alpha Centauri...

I can't really remember. But I don't think I played it that well back then, so I'll guess moderately

I can't remember. funny, I played it quite often but can't remember the score. This seems to be quite common, so I think the score doesn't mean anything.

In fact I didn't finish the most games. Once it's obvious you're going to win it became a little boring, just hunting for the score. The interesting part was the first hour of a game.

130ish on Emperor, conquering the world... Bbablyonians often start in Venezuela or Indonesia once you destroyed the Zulu. The starting positions for restarts are repetitve, despite being "random", which makes conquest games easy

ít's still a shame building gets a higher score than conquering

A good game doesn't depend from the score. I had quite easy games with a good score in the end,and I had tough games I finally managed to win - ending up with a lousy score. So I think that the score really doesn't matter

I have got absolutely no idea what my highest score was, it's been ages since I last played it!
Does anybody remember the names of the leaders that go with the score? I remember being better than Dan Quayle and Neville Chamberlain. I believe Ottoman and Eric the Great were in there too. Any more names??

I'm not sure about my score, but it must have been enormous and on Emperor. I remember that I conquered all the world except for one tiny sh*thole and had several cities with 32 (I think it was 32) people inside.

But I remember my fastest conquest victory on Emperor level: 900BC

So tough to remember, but I remember it was over 300%. IIRC, 352%.

Of course, I could now run Civ 1 on Emperor, and have 10^10^10 score .

It was about 280ish... just a dream run, but had to end the game far to quickly than I'd liked to.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

The score I remember is bound to be higher than my score was in reality. My goal was always to conquer all asap and I remember doing it well and truly BC, but can't put a number to it. I used some pretty heavy ICS knowing that I would finish early so I mostly wanted to make sure I cultivated all squares. I also helped many of my opponents so that taking their cities would give me more.

Whats your highest score by conquest?

I once conquered the world by about 1200bc (7 on emp) which gave me a score of 178. That was my highest ever score cos I never bothered with space ships although if I'd known you could get scores in exess of 300 I would have tried.

Also due to a bug in the game I once had a city size 83.

That sounds just like how I remember my last couple of really good games before I called it quits. Same scores and maybe not so early finish. Usually had a few strong cities and many many size 1 & 2 cities eternally supporting settlers. Used Chariot rushes a lot for early encounters.

over 300% easily, bigger games gave great scores, i remember conquering a small world map in about 8-10 turns or so.....it was funny how many civs you could take out by playing the germans....

i suspect my best score was alot higher....i recall games that had so many citizens it was uncanny lol

Think it was something between 200 and 300.

But I can exactly remember the days that I always was enraged to see that no matter how hard I tried never could jump over the 300 ladder

i had to look thru' some 100 savegames but most of the times i did play 'chieftain' or warlord so the score was never that high.

with prince or king maybe up to 200% - sometimes with luck.
