This time you have the challenge of raging barbs, a potentially slow start because your starting techs aren't suited to the land around you, and I've made the game Epic, just to give the barbs extra turns to spawn in. You can see from the starting area that you are on the coast which will give you some protection, but I'll tell you for free that there is still a lot of land nearby for the barbs to spawn from. For what it's worth, I test-played to 10AD without building the great wall (there isn't a 1AD turn on epic - it's 5BC then 10AD) and survived, so it is possible!

As always, have fun playing the GOTM and we hope you join us in the postgame discussions!
