All the World's a Stage

There's been a bit of a hiatus at Realms Beyond recently - real life issues slapping the main game sponsor around a bit - so to fill the gap Sooooo started up an unofficial adventure. It's a scored event with a heavy emphasis on Art and some restrictions on what can be built. I thought that as this was the theme I should aim for a Cultural victory - despite that being rather harder to pull off without being able to build cathedrals. It's not all about winning though :nod:

Scenario

Sponsor: Sooooo

Civilization: England, Elizabeth

Difficulty: Monarch

There are 2 save games available, identical in all respects except for the game speed. Chose either save for whatever reason you wish: the speed you enjoy or the speed you believe will score you more points. Players of both saves will be scored together.

Scenario Concept: All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players. Your civilization is fanatical about bringing art to the world. By force if necessary. Your civ *cough* "shuns" scientists, merchants and priests. Engineers are (just about) tolerated because they construct grand buildings to display your art.

Variant Rules: Please pay attention to the rules and scoring! Printing them out is wise.

You may not build any wonders (world or national) that generate GP points other than artist or engineer points. Parthenon=good, Oracle=bad. Heroic Epic=good, Scotland Yard=bad. This means no shrines too. There is 1 exception: You may build the United Nations.
You may not build any city improvements that allow the employment of scientist, merchant or priest specialists. Theatres and forges=good, markets and temples=bad. If you accidentally break this rule, carry on with the game but you will lose points (see below). There is 1 exception: You may build 1 library in the city you intend to build the national epic. But do not intentionally hire any scientists.
Any accidental non-artist, non-engineer GPs must be deleted.
In war, all AI cities must be razed, not captured. Barbarian cities are OK to capture.
If using caste system, do not intentionally hire scientists or merchants
