Good writeup! I'm curious how moving your Palace to Egypt worked out. Did you notice an increase in income? Obviosly it should help production in the newer towns, but did it make up for the loss in the original core? With the newly-weakened FP, I didn't think a palace move would pay off, but I haven't tried it in v1.15 yet either, so I'm interested to know how well it worked.

Also, you mentioned saving a research turn during your Scientific Golden Age, but everything I've seen says it doesn't work right. Did it work out for you? It would be a nice feature if it did.

As for the space decision, I have faced that dilemna before, I hate it when RL time constraints force me to change my choice of victory condition, but it happens. Almost happened on this one, I had a "contingency plan" in the back of my mind of going for domination if I didn't think I would have time to ride out the culture (of course, I didn't have the military to make it happen, but that's another story).

  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.
