Civ3 COTM XXI: Iroquois
Karasu has provided us with an Emperor level challenge to savour this month.
You are Hiawatha, and you will lead your noble Iroquois nation, pitting your wits against seven old world rivals.

The people of the Six Nations, also known by the French term, Iroquois Confederacy, call themselves the Hau de no sau nee (ho dee noe sho nee) meaning People Building a Long House. Located in the northeastern region of North America, originally the Six Nations was five and included the Mohawks, Oneidas, Onondagas, Cayugas, and Senecas. The sixth nation, the Tuscaroras, migrated into Iroquois country in the early eighteenth century.
Together these peoples comprise the oldest living participatory democracy on earth. Their story, and governance truly based on the consent of the governed, contains a great deal of life-promoting intelligence for those of us not familiar with this area of American history. The original United States representative democracy, fashioned by such central authors as Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson, drew much inspiration from this confederacy of nations. In our present day, we can benefit immensely, in our quest to establish anew a government truly dedicated to all life's liberty and happiness much as has been practiced by the Six Nations for over 800 hundred years.
Can you build a civilized legacy to match the vision of the Iroquois Confederacy?

Conquest-Class Game Details for Conquest 21
Players who choose
to play in the Conquest class game will receive a set of bonuses designed to
help them focus on key early strategic decisions that may help them to
get more enjoyment out of the specific conditions of this game. The bonuses
ARE NOT designed to guarantee you a win without requiring some good early decisions
to be made and without asking you to manage your Civilization properly.
Players who might be interested in playing the conquest class game could be those players
who might only feel comfortable playing at Warlord or Regent difficulty.
For the purposes of global ranking and comparison to all other GOTM scores, the Conquest class
games scores in the QSC and GOTM results will be weighted downward with an 85% multilpier
to factor out the
value of the additional starting bonuses.
Conquest Class Starting Bonuses:
Conquest class players will begin the game with following unit and game feature bonuses:
- Bonus Tech: Writing
- Extra Units: An extra scout.

who have participated in the Elite or Leader divisions of the Medal Play Series or players who just
