	Science/money bonus from caravans Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

What's the highest bonus you've ever got from delivering a caravan?
I think I did well last night with 618, but I'm sure someone must have received more than that?

	Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

That's the most I've heard of. My record is 340.

	Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

I used to have a method where for distant cities I'd send a spy and a caravan, the caravan sets up the route and nets me a small fortune, the spy uses the money to buy the city, often with a small sub from back home. It was cheaper and tied up fewer resources than a long intercontinental war with a distant enemy.

I had fun with it anyway...

	Enter the AD-FREE zone

Well, I beat my own record last night - sent a freight loaded with gold across the ocean to the Spanish capital and netted 1020

If you try out Julius' 'No Limits' mod and play on a Giga-map trade bonusses in excess of 1K are the norm!!

	Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

I can remember getting in excess of 3k before, but those results are rather tainted. To help myself play the game I had changed the rules and added a lot of food tothe squares, so I had cities of over size 100 natrurally... I probably tweaked the trade amnts, too, so that could be the astronomical numbers right there.
