Challenge #6: Return of the King

Bill and I have tried a King difficulty game only once before - during our single-city challenge.  In retrospect, that was a bad place to start since all of the other Civs could run amok while we were artificially constraining ourselves.

I'm not sure why we dropped back to Prince difficulty after that debacle, but it's time to ramp things back up.

Difficulty level: King

Admittedly, this set up is a little like having training wheels, since the AIs are generally crappy naval officers, but we have to start somewhere, and this seems the best way to get our feet wet with the idea of King difficulty.
