Rulesets by Cazfi

Alien World

Variant2

As of 2.6, stub ruleset is being maintained in main freeciv git repository. You can always get the current development versions from there.

This ruleset contains only one nation, so there can be only one player. Freeciv 2.1.4 and earlier crash if you try to start game with more than one player. Freeciv 2.1.5 and later do not allow you to select more than 1 players.

Genmove

It's unlikely that I update this ruleset any more. Feature demonstrations will be made with above demoset.

Differences to default rules

• Amphibious armor -unit. For most part considered land unit (City Walls, Barracks), but can also move at Sea
• Two types of Ocean: Ocean and Deep Ocean (Now part of default ruleset)
• Trireme can enter any Ocean tiles, but cannot enter Deep Ocean tile (Now part of default ruleset)
• Many units are considered Wheeled. They can enter some terrains only if there is road
• Trireme cannot transport Wheeled units

Rulesets by other authors

Since version 2.3 freeciv comes with utility called freeciv-modpack for easily installing modpacks. Easiest way to obtain Ancients for freeciv 2.3 or 2.4 is to launch that utility and select Ancients from the list it provides. Downloads below are provided just for redundancy, and in case someone wants full Ancients package (including outdated stuff not contained in freeciv-modpack installable material).
