PREV UP NEXT Olympia: The Age of Gods PBEM (Oct 4 2000)

1.1: Overview

Each Olympia:The Age of Gods game is based on a scenario, which defines the rules of the game.

Each player joins as a member of a nation. The player begins with control of one noble and a sum of gold, the Olympian currency. Nobles may hire subordinates, study skills, trade items, build things, and explore. Each turn a player submits orders for all of the nobles they control.

The Olympia program will execute orders for noble in parallel. Each order may take no time or some number of game days to complete. As many orders will be processed for each noble as game time allows. Orders not completed by the end of the turn may continue into the next. Each turn covers one month of game time. An Olympian month lasts 30 game days.
