Thanks for your curses and congratulations!

Winning early must be the biggest contributor, but it's amplified by other things, such as map size/ number of opponents/ difficulty.



PS Could I have one of those merging banners that shows one month first, then the next, instead of two separate ones? Not sure how much trouble that would be...

PS Forced peace with raging barbarians might be fun...

Congrats on that whomping Zig.

I did finish mongoose,but I figured a diplomatic loss with just over 2k points wasn't going to achieve much

Submissions should not be an indicator of interest if that is your concern.  For me it was a tactical decision.  I really did have no chance of beating Rish's score as I had passed him in years and had no hope of concuring Carthage. 

Zig, I hadn't realized how badly beaten Carthage was for you.  Truely you 'deserve' that score then.  I think you are right about timing though.  If you can get the timing right of when to attack, perhaps that makes all the difference.  It would seem that those who had attacked Carthage earlier (Zig and Rish), kept him in check for the later game and made it easier to "finish him".

Thanks mongoose, this way there's space for more of 'em...

One thing that was helpful: Carthage didn't have any iron, so no Pikes, no Knights. They still declared war as soon as Shaka capitulated. I had galloped those horsies back right in time to intercept the invasion.

Hope everyone enjoyed this one... I know quite a few played and got discouraged by Rish's score, but it would be cool to play it out and submit your saves so that I have more than 2 submissions a month.

Yeah I'm with Zone. Don't take a lack of submissions as a lack of interest! I played it up to like 1980 or something, so I was definitely interested. But once I saw Rish had it won in like the 1800s it became obvious that I was not a contender. It would've been a waste of my time to finish it out. I'm GLAD that Rish finished his quick and posted it! Saved me from wasting another chunk of time with a tedious long-drawn out struggle!

I'm itching to get going on April.  Warlords I hope.  Let's get it on!  Actually if you could wait a week when I'm finished with all my work, that would be ideal
