PLEASE NOTE THE DATE.
The ancient wisdom talks about strange races living across the sea. Your people destiny is not to stay here, limited to this island territory, but to dominate the world. Lot of slaves will be needed for that task, so it is a good thing there are so many tribes to conquer!
Hatshepsut is Spiritual and Creative; starting with The Wheel and Agriculture. As you are Spiritual you get no anarchy and you also get double speed temple. Being Creative, you get 2 free culture per turn and you also get double speed Theatre and Colosseum.
Your Unique unit is the War Chariot, replacing Chariot. Compared to the Chariot this unit has a strength of 5 instead of 4 and it is immune to First Strikes.
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:
- Engineering: You start the game with two Galleys (SW and SE of the Warrior) and one Great Engineer (N of the Warrior).
