!!!THIS IS THE TEST RELEASE OF THE GAME FOR EARLY ADOPTERS!!! Inthe Golden Age of Civilizations, achieving success requires abalance between economic expansion, military strength, andtechnological development. Once technological progress has broughtyou into the space age, you may launch a spacecraft and the firstcivilization whose launch it wins. Because of the game istime-based, the game will end after four weeks (if no spacecrafthave yet been launched), the surviving civilizations are thenrated, and the one with the highest overall score is the winner.The game is derived from the FreeCiv but it was devised to supporttime-based instead of turn-based strategy; and it is supports theMMO gameplay where you compete against hundreds and sometimesthousands opponents to found cities and use them to support amilitary, and finally to complete an empire that survives allencounters with its neighbors to emerge victorious. Each opponentis human player, not controlled by the computer! Though the game isplayed in time and through weeks, at the beginning of each unitsare assigned movement time, which are spent as they move and act.Using up the movement time early may leave a unit without theability to respond if an opponent approaches later. The unitscannot carry extra movement time into the next hours or days, everyunits has a limit of accumulation of time. All players begin withsix units on a small continent: two Explorer, one Warriors, oneWorkers and two Settlers unit -- and race to expand outward fromthose humble beginnings. Most of your map will be blank when thegame begins, your units travel and discover the oceans andcontinents of the world. Note that your map is only the record ofthe terrain and cities your last encountered in an area -- you willnot learn about changes in an area until your units visit again,nor can you observe the movement of enemy units that are out ofsight of your units and cities. Let's start playing today, are youready?! :)
