I'm trying to get a cultural victory with Brazil and it's turn 389 /king, CP and various small mods:
I completely dwarf all others (culturally), yet the Aztecs just went crazy in this game and have more outputs&troops than all others combined. In 10 turns I'll dominate everyone except Aztecs - they have +566 tourism against my +521. Even in a golden age (brazil's ua doubles the tourism output then) the tooltip says I need ~150 turns to become influential over them. We're at war -no peace possible, so no trade or open borders bonuses for me.
I noticed this pretty late (yep I'm a noob), and decided to nuke them back to medieval ages; yet my dear ally Sweden proposes nuclear non-proliferation and I've got only one a-bomb. No matter what I've tried, that proposal always passes; I really don't want to go 50 turns back and focus on nukes. Do you think it's still possible to win the game, and how so? I can't think anything other than outright conquest of their capital, and they are more powerful than all the world combined +plus honor&order civ +have the lead in science. Also another civ goes for science victory and needs only 2 parts, so I'll need to take their capital in the meantime.
