It is good, but so is 3 culture per wonder (if you get wonders ), that amount to a good number after +tourism buildings.

I started this game hoping to try for a culture win on Immortal for the very first time.
I did pretty well for most of the game, though at the start had a few issues with deciding whether to prioritize culture or science: as a result I had a couple of unworked university slots. Still, the internal trade routes I was running allowed me to become first in tech sometime during the renaissance.
This whole time, I was paying off civs near me to war with each other, mainly paying russia (who was really far from me with a large military) to attack them. This plan backfired when they took out atilla and the shoshone, the two neighbors I was most worried about, but became a massive runaway.
Still, I was ahead in tech at the time, and my tourism was great, so I wasnt too worried. So I stopped really checking the demographics, and when I looked back some turns later somehow russia skyrocketed in science, ending up 20 techs ahead of me!
I tried to get my culture to influential over them without war, because I reasoned that 20 techs was too much of an advantage, so tried to race them via culture while they pumped SS parts. I ended up influential over everyone but russia and was working on getting to internet before buying up musicians on turn 325 when russia launched. =(
I guess I should've bit the bullet and DoWed them when they took their second capital, but I felt weak at the time, having grabbed all the culture/science techs rather than the military ones.
Spoiler :
If I pass that one (too soon?), I am giving the world's number 1 culture guy more culture. I will already have lots of culture and wont need that as much as I need Tourism.
I stupidly lost my religion in Paris because I forgot to buy an inquisitor and park him next to the city. Fortunately I still had another city where I could faith buy people, or I might have had to go for a diplo or science victory.
Did you peacefully expand to 8 cities and the AI's just sat there and watched?Well because the purpose was to play with 8 and test it otherwise I would just not have made 8...
Here it is:
Turn 238 as predicted with a 8city NC
Spoiler :
Time to do it the old fashioned way
Yeah, I can imagine 8-city NC would cost a lot of hammers. Do you think it is possible to do 3-4-city NC and then expand more? How are AI's expanding in this game? Also, was any of them pissed that you build cities too aggressively?It's too old, something like turn 90 with a GE for NC.
