PLEASE NOTE THE DATE.
You play as Montezuma. Angels in heaven quake in anguish as they witness the most infamous backstabber wretch among men ascend as leader for the most feared and hated warrior tribe ever to be known. Show no mercy. Take no prisoners. Kill'em! Kill'em All!!
Note that the AI receives bonuses due to their difficulty being Settler in a similar way that humans receives bonuses at Settler level. They all start with The Wheel, Agriculture, Hunting, Mysticism and Mining. The start with one settler and one scout (contender). Also notice there are 7 opponents.
As always, have fun playing the GOTM and we hope you join us in the postgame discussions!

Choose your Game
Besides the normal contender, we sometimes provide an easier save (the adventurer save) and an extra-hard save (the challenger).
Below are the details for the saves we are providing for this game. You can choose to play and submit any one of these:
Adventurer (the easy save)
The adventurer starting save has been changed to make your game a bit easier. However, if you submit an adventurer game, you won't eligible to win any of the medals or fastest finish awards when the results are published.
These are your adventurer bonuses:
- Crippled AI: Perhaps a coincident, but all AI scouts fell in love with the world wide spread female tribe of the Amazon, and abandoned their duties for pleasure (scout removed).

Contender (the standard save)
This is the save that most people play. If you want to enter the competition with a normal game, then download and play this one.
Contender bonuses:
- None.

Challenger (the extra-hard save)
Play this save if you want an extra challenge. Your entry will be marked out as a contender
entry when the results are published, so you'll get extra kudos.
These are your challenger equalizers:
- Blessed AI: Perhaps a coincident, but all AI scouts attracted warriors from the world wide spread female tribe of the Amazon who get pleasure from ritual warfare (AI gets one extra warrior)
