Not really. Okay, how about this. I haven't played China since vanilla. I can give them a try again, I guess.

Ok, great choice you've made. I have a few candidate civs to balance the great Chinese traits and UU:

Aztec, Germany, Carthage, France, and India. If you wish to exclude some civs from this list, please say so. Otherwise, I will pick one of these. Aztec and Germany have somewhat unbalanced traits but their UU is of no use in this game. Carthaginian UU is also of very limited use apparently. France and India seems to be OK for UU but they don't have cheap harbors and barracks.

You can play any one of those that you want.

OK, it will be Aztec then. No SGL, SoZ balanced, some barbarians without fix, don't know what else. I'll post a map request shortly.

I am officially conceding my game vs Akots here. After he got SoZ and TGL I could see that the rest of the game would be virtiually impossible for me to win. I will make a longer post on the game at a later date. I will confess that I had forgotten that SoZ was allowed. I think this Wonder may be a game unballancer and I should have argued to keep it out of the game.

Well played Alkots. Good game.
