SGOTM 5 was an OBC with an isolated start - but annares variant is a good idea for a few games time.
The problem with with automated worker/governor games is that they cannot be policed.
SGOTM 8 was indeed a luxury free map, and rather difficult. Unfortunately I have used it for GOTM43 - and put the luxes back in. I may do this soon, probably as an AWM.
I have read a couple of no worker games, and no building games IIRC - these too could be possible - though I may allow the starting worker and just disable captured and traded workers.
Forced archer rush games with no iron or horses is fine - but not really a variant. It's just a cheesy map.
Next game will probably be a 5CC space race. Not sure what level yet. Deity is OK but it tends to put off a lot of people from playing. I will probably allow each team to choose which civ they want to play as too. Give you something else to think about before you load the game.
