One of my first BTS games, and I lost to Gilgamesh because he was Hindu and I was blocked off from attacking him because of Sitting Bull.
I didn't really know anything about the AP, and I didn't know you could win with it (I barely glance at the Victory Conditions screen until someone gets into the Space Race). For all I knew it was a bloddy annoying Wonder that stopped me trading with everyone.
A little backstory- I'm not Hindu because two other Civs really didn't want me to be. I think it was... Cyrus and some person with green cultural borders. I defeated them and just never really changed back to Hinduism, and was warring with Sitting Bull, one or two cities to go when BAM- Gilgamesh wins. He votes for himself and wins. A diplomatic victory.
I probably sound bitter, and I am a little, but, honestly, doesn't anyone see this as a silly thing and a problem?
I can't think of any solution, and I'll probably edit out the AP because, honestly, next time I'm playing on continents I don't want to get any further down the drain when the other guys already are buddies with the same religion, but are voting on eveything.
e: It's not that I'm a sore loser; I'd be fine if Gilly here had been building up units all game and just destroyed me, it's just I wouldn't want to lose because Isabella gets Meditation, the AP and never spreads her religion (which I admit isn't likely, but replace with any appropriate leader)
Though I might not be included in the AP at that point, I think they'll still be able to pose resolutions, correct?
