Thanks for the scenario. One question -- Is your intent to have players stay in Fundy all game? Or is there some option we have to switch governments. I think I know the answer.

Fundy all game. Wow. Should be interesting -- that's a nice twist.

You can't spell "fundy" without "fun."

I'm about to play, and I read the intro.

Are we REQUIRED to allocate no more than 50% to science output?

I'd appreciate a quick answer. thanks.

I would have missed out on luxuries or extra taxes. Good thing I asked.

I have no idea if I'm doing good or bad.I'm doing stuff and building things I don't normally.

The Romans started a SS but stopped building half way thru.Good thing too.I think it was because of war with England.In the end there were only myself,Rome and England.

2 civs were destroyed early but 1(France) never restarted.Perhaps due to Paris falling into Barb control kept dark blue from restarting.In light of Tom's recent discovery,this couldn't have helped.

I also could not celebrate after size 20.So that is where I stayed.Could have built CfC but I didn't think 2 more citizens was worth it given the length of time it would have taken to grow 2 more citizens.

I got ALOT of barb activity.Lost a few caravans to them.

1 very annoying point.

I had a gold caravan heading to Veii.It was demanded and Veii was size 9.The Romans declared war while it was enroute.
I thought"bye bye caravan" as it was in their territory.But they did not kill it.That happens sometimes and I thought "bonus".
They let me march it right next to it's destination and then killed it.I was slightly annoyed.A good 15 turns I marched that camel.But to tease me like that...argh.

_________________
Edit:

Well, here are my highlights and additional comments on the game. You may have noticed that I built a library, a marketplace, a granary, and 7 caravans before I built the colossus. I'm not sure if this was wise or not, but I didn't feel too far behind, and at least I got some early trade routes.

I'll be interested in seeing the table for easy comparison. I think I was doing great until the middle ages. Then I just seemed to go really slow. I mean, even though I discovered Space Flight in 1899ad, I couldn’t launch my ship until 1930ad because I was waiting around for Superconductor, and later, Fusion Power. Slowed me up a bit. Oh well.

Highlights: 4000bc-1945ad (version 2.4.2)

Colossus: 750bc
Copernicus: 275bc
Shakespeares: (never)
Isaac Newtons: 50bc
Darwins: 1855ad
Apollo: 1900ad
------------
Along the way, I also built the following wonders:

Great Library 180ad
King Richard’s: 600ad
Leonardo’s: 1040ad
Hoover’s Dam: 1878ad
United Nations: 1891ad
SETI Program: 1892ad
Sun Tzu’s War Academy: 1893ad
Cure for Cancer: 1897ad
J.S. Bach’s: 1944ad
Manhatten Project: (1945ad)

1st Trade Route: 675bc
2nd Trade Route: 575bc
3rd Trade Route: 400bc

Trade: 2000bc
Construction: 900bc (via trade)
Sanitation: 260ad
Refrigeration: 1550ad
Automobile: 1836ad
Computers: 1876ad
Space Flight: 1899ad

Size 12: 200ad
Size 21: 1790ad

Monarchy established: (never)
Republic established: (never)
Democracy established: (never – never even discovered this one)

I guess staying at size 20 to maintain the WLTKD science bonus was shortsighted - I seem to have lost ground from the mid-game onwards. Despite the relative length and the disappointing finish, there were some interesting twists and insights into Fundy's quirks - having all that money and the ability to bribe units with ease, resulting in the build-up of a modest navy (well, mainly ferry-boats) for a land-locked city!

Hats off to Smash and vik who successfully steered the course.

1916 The English nuked me - they weren't joking!

With all the extra gold and production, I built several diplomats and bribed AI units. In particular, I bribed 4 settlers and 4 engineers over the course of the game, giving me lots of improvement potential. I also bribed a lot of barbarian units.

I transformed most hills/plains/forest to grassland. The extra food sped my city's growth. Unfortunately, I was unaware that you could get happy citizens in Fundy, and thus celebrate WLTD to get that extra trade arrow per tile. Oops.

The Aztecs and Romans developed quite impressively, having around 20 cities each by the time space flight came around. I was prepared for a big war with the Romans (with around 20 NONE musketeers/ riflemen/ various others that I had bribed during the course of the game), but was not looking forward to the result.

I was a little too generous with my gifting late in the game, resulting in the Romans and Aztecs both building their spaceships very quickly (outpacing my research to Superconductor). I gave up with about 5 years to go before my launch - The Romans were about to launch a <10 year spaceship.

I only recorded highlights for my game:

One important question for me was "What determines the re-appearance of commodity- rather than food-caravans and how does this relate to the stock of food caravans on hand (waiting for Wonder building)?"

quote: In a regular game, an option is not to grow by WLTKD, thus having more non-food caravans.

1670 allies: 375g

Note: this is a most peculiar game - all five of the opposing civs are still in Monarchy and my four allies have been at war with Rome since the dawn of creation. However not with any great success. Currently the English have 10 cities, the French 8, the Zulus 10, the Aztecs 5 and Rome just 3 (having just taken Oxford in a well timed counter attack). Just to complicate matters the Zulus and Aztecs keep having border spats and then kissing and making up. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Liverpolis essentially has a sub-continent all to itself no cities having been founded closer than London. Ah well - on with the motley...

This was the first time ever that I played Fundy. Wow, did we get rich! Thanks to Marco Polo we had all the AI tribes doing research for us, until they could no longer keep up (!). And none of them dared to wage war against us.
We probably should have researched Genetic Engineering sooner, it appeared to be necessary to maintain the "We Love The Ayatollah Day" at odd sizes. The different Gov techs were hard to come by as we couldn't trade for it. But we got some of them as tribute
