The Emperor of Venice

Venice Culture Challenge

Can you win a culture victory as Venice, playing against the Byzantines, the Ottomans and Morocco on a Mediterranean themed Small Continents map?

There are two versions of this scenario; one with randomised resources, the other with fixed legendary resources, guaranteeing a good start.

Requires Gods & Kings (Byzantines) and Brave New World (Venice & Morocco). The scenario is designed to use the new trade routes and tourism features of BNW.

Information about the challenge, with screenshots and action reports can be found in this thread:

Or search for "The Emperor of Venice" in the Civ 5 forum (since that link doesn't seem to work).

Features:

* Good random map, chosen for it's potential for interesting tactical naval battles.

* Mediterranean theme - map edited to remove all ice, snow, tundra and jungle, replacing the latter three with desert, plains and forest.

* 10 city states, 2 of each type, all Mediterranean cities.

* Only Culture and Time victory conditions are active.

* Resources and Goody Huts are randomised in the standard version.
* Legendary resources ensure a good start in the legendary version.

* The challenge is intended to be played on Emperor level at Quick speed, but can be played on whichever level or speed that suits you best.

* Although this scenario was designed to be played as Venice, you can choose to play as the Byzantines, Ottomans or Morocco if you prefer.

* If you want to join in the challenge and post screenshots and action reports, please do so in the forum thread mentioned above.
