Gaians call Spartans war-mongers, but Spartans call mindworm use a crime against humanity. What will waging war do to the soul of the peaceful Gaian people?
We return to the world of 2010 GotM, War Crimes, with the Gaian side of the conflict, featuring the finest story to come out of the GotM team in a very long time, included in the scenario .zip at the link.
This is a SMAC scenario, you don't need the expansion - Alien Crossfire - to play it.
Estimated time of play: 2-3 hours, but you can double that if you're a fan of micromanagement.
Players about the scenario:
"Great story!
Also, i think is great to play the game as a governor instead of a fully fledged leader. It reminds me other type of games, like those were you impersonated Roman governors and such.
First time here! Looking to enjoy all of your GOTM's
Thxs for your work"
DIRECTIONS
1) Download the zip file (see link bellow) and place it into your main game directory. usually this is: C:/Program Files/Firaxis Games/Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri/
2) Unzip it there. Confirm overwrite if asked (ONLY FOR WINDOWS USERS)!
3) Start up SMAC, then select "Scenario", "Play Scenario", and then go to the subdirectory "1202 Warcrimes Reverse" and choose the scenario.

OBJECTIVES
For GotM 1202, any base on the map counts as an objective.
As Governor of the Eastern region of Gaian Territory, you will have to conquer all Spartan bases
at the East of the Freshwater Sea.
You will be eligible for the GotM even if you don't achieve all your objectives. The minimum requirement is 1 (one) conquered/subverted base. You can stop at anytime save the game and send you submission to
WARNING!
You cannot build additional bases in this scenario. The Gaian people are afraid to relocate closer to the Spartan border because of the recent warcrimes. You will have to 'clean' the shores of the Freshwater Sea before the colonists will arrive.
You won't be able to direct the research capabilities of the Gaian Territory or trade techs with the other factions. Remember you are 'only' a Governor! (Of course, you can always steal the precious techs available to the Spartan forces).
There's no Planetary Council in this scenario. This stuff is only available for the 'guys in the big league' (faction leaders). However you will be able to contact the Spartans using the commlink.
CHANGELOG
Habitat Complex available from the begining of the scenario.
GOOD LUCK!
STANDINGS FOR THE FEBRUARY 2012 GotM COMPETITION:
The standings will be calculated using the following criteria (in this exact order):
1. Difficulting level (transcendent submission beat any lower level submission)
2. number of objectives reached;
3. number of turns needed to reach the objectives;
4. Alpha Centauri score.
meaning:
- the games played on lesser difficulty level won't be able to beat a superior level;
- if we have more players on the same difficulty level, the player with most objectives will be placed higher;
- on the same number of objectives, the scenario completed in less turns will outweigh the others;
- if there will be more than one submission still tied, the Alpha Centauri score will decide the winner.
IMPORTANT: for everything concerning submissions, AARs, prizes please use this thread: http://alphacentauri2.info/index.php?topic=1217 or use this email address: submissions { @ } alphacentauri2 { . } info. You can submit your saves till March,31.
