Guess its back to being eaten by the Sharks in the Invulnerable challenge. If you are shivering and shaking from withdrawal symptoms like me then give Stone Mill's Invulnerable Challenge a go - it is way better than any old SP game!

I'm going through withdrawal! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

Someone recommended the "invulnerable" or "invincible" mod but I cannot find the post.

I downloaded but when I hit end turn, it didn't advance the turn. What am I doing dumb? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

Any other similar games set up for single-play challenges out there?

Thanks!
Merry

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">The Invulnerable Challenge was planned to play in PBW but after the challenge was ready it was noticed the challenge can't be played in PBW because only one game at time can have the same savegame name. So you need to run the turn by logging in as game master.

You can also automatize the turn processing if you create a batch file. You can find accurate examples from Invulnerable Challenge thread.

I don't believe there is any other single player challenges around. Or if there is I haven't heard about them.
