SG[1], I only sold 3 (three, count 'em) improvements. Then again, considering how few improvements have been built…

We have GW, therefore no need for Walls (don't even remember which city it was in). We have STWA, therefore Barracks only serve to speed healing. I think it was in Bombay, too far from any action to be beneficial. The Aquaduct in Valence was a waste of 2g/turn since it had dropped to size 2.99 due to combat.

You are forgiven - we have played 6 turns and the Spanish are no more - the Japs are left for SG(2) to marmalise.

I enjoyed playing the game but it didn't offer the challenge that we first envisaged. The Academy is becoming more adept at dealing with unusual situations!

So far the hardest challenge seems to have been the one without wonders which took us into the modern era and to the threshold of nuclear holocaust. The Seriously Tricky one could go the same way.

SG(2)

I have a proposal for one that could be quite tricky.

-MGE, large map, deity/raging/7 civs
-Science setting must be kept at 0%.
-Only one government change allowed (the arguments as to what government to change to should be, ahem, interesting )
-Victory condition: AC

I wasn't going to start this one until the present tricky game was completed, but if there's enough clamour I can start it now

Or someone else could, of course.

The SGs always argue amongst themselves about government changes so it could be very interesting.

Let's see what ideas come from esteemed members of The Academy.

Quick reaction: I think the most challenging govt restriction would be...

The Republic / require victory by conquest.

...especially if required to avoid certain happiness WoWs.

Too late... game's started without you.

(That's what you get for going away for the weekend... you get left out of the decision process )

See 'Space Luddites' thread

Or of course... you could start another one
