Here’s the scoring board of how well I did with these civs: Since then I wanted to win this scenario with all playable civilizations – on deity difficulty. The Scramble for Africa scenario really got me hooked when I was going for the Boers deity Steam achievement. Scramble for Africa Strategy Guides (Deity) Sometimes even meeting Ethiopia very early and accepting embassies can grant you the discovery of a Natural wonder: Kilimanjaro also often is in Ethiopia or a little south of it. The source of Nile is usually in Egypt or south of it in Ethiopia. If you’re lucky you will find King Solomon’s Mines with your riflemen already a little south of the Ottomans.
It’s really not that hard: Play on the lowest difficulty, so you start with more units already and more importantly: Probably the AI starts with less! Then build some explorers, open borders with the Ottomans and Egypt and send your troops into the heart of the dark continent. Whereas I first thought this was a tough nut to crack, I got this Steam achievement in the 3rd attempt. Playing as Italy in Scramble for Africa, earn the VP for finding two Natural Wonders.
