Nope. But I think one could port one of the Civ2 viking scenarios. The
advances module can easily be used as a base for Civ-like game variants.

That's my game. The rather ambitious idea was to cover all of human
history, so please go ahead if you want to hack out a stone age module. You
would of course have to figure out a credible tree that ends with the 1st
generation advances in the current game:

;	1st generation advances (16).

	(elders-council a* false)
