I can't remember who started the challenge, but I thought it was interesting. I didn't comply to all the rules however. I used a small map, 3 civs, and Cheiften level. I think this was good for me because i can't even beat the game on warlord. But I did it, and I think it would be possible on diety level very easily.
I'm sorry to say, but if you cannot beat the computer on Warlord level, you are doing something extremely wrong.
King difficulty, large map, 8 players should be an easy task...

Methos - I am very interested in how you would recommend taking out all civs without having any cities on a large map. I have always had difficulty getting triremes from huts and bribing them seems tough without any diplos. Perhaps I am missing something here. Is there a way to teleport to islands without a boat? Also you reference eight players which must be a ToT thing, the max in v2.42, FW2.78, and MGE is seven?
