Hey Glen, I am 1 for 7 games so far on the random maps and I love it. I am working on readjusting my tactics after years of either Rush the guy or build walls to defend, survive the AI's rush and win through attrition. The biggest difference in the game I won was to build up a force of units (4 infantry and 3 archers) and advance on a resource gathering point of the enemy. I was able to keep the pressure on and seriously slow down the AI's economic advancement. Of course, I had turned on the Explore option so the map was visible and set the pop to 100. I am not too good at maintaining a larger population and the computer is very good at it. You can also have the AI assist you in either economic, warfare or both. Yes, it is a crutch but it is interesting to see how the AI handles it. Also, don't forget the farms/cows and fishing boats. They bring in a ton of resources. Best of luck :) Markus In article <38E18BD9...@bellsouth.net>, geba...@bellsouth.net wrote: > And to follow up, how do you play this game?
