The latest version (V8.55e.1) is the AGA version, so this has been linked in the first post. The non AGA version can also be used. If you have issues with the disks, do let us know.
You can skip the intro by pressing ESC during the animations. The completion star will go to anyone who can beat all 7 tribes. If you do; show your final score and also your % score to get the star. Civ Help If you are familiar with CIV, or if you DONT want any help, then you can skip this post. For newbies who want to know how to understand the basics, I made a Starters Guide. It helps if you have the game on the screen while reading it. I've tried not to give away any gameplay spoilers, and this is like a manual for newbies. A Tree Of Advances is available here, which came as a fold-out chart free inside the real game box. I made a Colourized Lemon Tree of Advances, where the dependant advances are all in the same colours.

Saving is now enabled. It takes anywhere between 2 hours and 5 hours to reach 1200AD, and so I've enabled saving, as the game time is too long.
You cant use saves to fix a bad game, but you can use them to practice if you want. |

Haven't tried to play Amiga version of Civilization properly, although I own boxed original. So here's first effort, hopefully I have time to submit better score later in the competition

Note: Saving allowed doesn't mean you're allowed to load a saved game more than once.
When you save it means you have to shut down your Amiga/emulator then and only may reload your saved game to continue playing in your next session! If you then have some bad luck in this session you're not allowed to reload your previously saved game again. |

I just want to take a moment to welcome capehorn as a new scores manager.
I asked if he could help with the scores on EAB, and to keep an eye on the threads for questions. All help very much appreciated. Thanks cape. |

Tried to be peaceful this time... @lifeschool: I really thought how on Earth can we compete with this game, but with current rules that seem to work quite well |

Well it's the end of the round.

Lemon Amiga seemed to have a great time with it, and it's a shame you EAB guys missed out on all the fun. The next round is Pinball, so let's see a few more players. |

This round is over
After some in-trepidation, a very good round, and I really enjoyed it for a nice change of pace. Our score veteran John won in the end, followed closely by a very determined pastquale, and then third on the podium goes to another strong performer Juanma. 1st - john4p 2nd - pasquale 3rd - Juanma On to more familiar territory now as we pull back the plunger and get ready for some more classic arcade action! |
