Response to Griselda's report
 
Hi,

congrats on your domination victory! I see you too decided to revolt to communism, and I bet it helped you a lot more than it did in my game. Your captured cities sure would have been quite productive if not for the no-mining rule... And I see you have adapted to the new rules better than I did; it somehow never occured to me to use engineers while starving down cities.

One nitpick about your opening moves, though, if you don't mind: Why did you irrigate the plains first? An irrigated plains has the same stats as the unirrigated bonus grasslands and the wines tile, so connecting the wines and roading the bg tiles and then irrigating plains would have given you more commerce and more beakers in the beginning.

I agree about the weird barb AI in C3C - they seem to fortify a lot, one warrior just sat there on a mountain in my territory literally for centuries. And they nearly always seem to fortify for one round after moving...

Reading your report about your first war with Gallic swordmen reminded me about the one good thing my unexpected, pyramids-induced GA had: I never had to build those overpriced Gallics.

  Tourney Mission Statement:
Existing Civ III tournaments, contests and group events are universally plagued by elements or shortcomings that lead often to compartmentalized results. Spoilers and privileged info is readily made available while games are still in progress. The game itself remains in flux through a patching process. The scoring system measures only a few elements of the gameplay. We at Realms Beyond are not satisfied to settle for these conditions and compromises.

The Realms Beyond is home to gamers who go beyond the norm, who creatively add depth to good games to make them better, who choose to set our own added limits to gameplay for the purpose of increasing challenge, varying gameplay flavor, and getting more out of the games we love. We discard the usual standards and venture into realms beyond, where we share our passion for gaming with one another, and with those who are like-minded.

We develop and refine our tournament as we go, with the help of the players. Each game is subject to rules, but we keep the framework light, the emphasis on excellence, the focus on the spirit of the game. Come and play. Share, compare, teach, and learn.
