I've played HiTM three or four times now. The changes in techs, units, wonders, buildings, etc., were a bit of an adaptation. But before long, I was doing well on Noble. So I set about trying to get a good Prince game going. Had to go through half dozen or so randomly generated maps before I got one that really appeared to be a good one. Everything totally random, wound up with the Vikings. I'm now up to about 850AD on "Odyssey" speed (very slow), and this is one of the funnest games of Civ I've ever played. I'm posting the .sav in the event that anyone wants to try it.

If you do, you will of course have to DL the HiTM mod and patch up to latest version, etc.

But I'd also recommend that you play a bit on Noble or easier to get the hang of the changes before you try this map. This is a _really_ good random map, so it'd be a shame to waste it as an initial learning experience.

It does sound interesting but I'm assuming here that once one has applied the mod then all previous saves are just so much trash and that the whole thing is incompatible with ongoing pbem's, GOTM's, that sort of thing? That usually seems to be the case unfortunately.

Actually not. Under advanced options in the main menu, there's this button "Load a mod". Meaning, it's possible to switch at will between mods and the vanilla game.
