Do you have what it takes to ensure your civilization's survival for 100 turns in a frozen, post-nuclear future? From now until February 13, you've got the chance to prove it. Oh, and did we mention the robots?

Resources are sparse, disasters are intense, and Giant Death Robots are a constant threat. Your memory of life before the robot takeover is fading, but parts of the world are still known to you. As the Prime Minister of Canada, Wilfrid Laurier, will you scour the frozen wasteland for resources and remnants of the old world, or hunker down and hope to outlast your opponents?

CHALLENGE 2: SEVEN SEAS
The continents have been consumed by oceans. Civilizations persist, scattered across the mountainous islands that remain, but for some it will prove nigh impossible to thrive in this unfamiliar environment.

Playing as the Norwegian leader Harald Hardrada, you find yourself at an advantage. You've already explored most of the ocean, your Viking Longships are unrivaled in naval combat, and you have the unique ability to pillage your enemies' coastal tiles. During the Seven Seas challenge, played in Heroes & Legends mode, the victory condition you pursue is entirely up to you. That sea air sure smells like Domination, though!
