Question Maximizing score on lower levels

Hi All,

I am currently playing at some lower levels (clearing out some of the requirements in the HoF). What is the best way to maximize my final score? Right now I am on a rampage, running over everybody. Assuming my economy and military can handle it (which it can), is it better for my final score to keep cities or raze them?

Any other tips on maximizing score on the lower levels?

Stay as close to domination levels as possible without going over until 2050. That's it.

Another option is to win as early as possible, so you get the bonus for # of turns left.

Score is basically calculated by
  • Finish Date (most important - fast finishes will score high)
  • Dificulty (higher levels score higher)
  • Population - max your population just before finishing
  • Techs known
  • Wonders build
  • Land area controlled (just try to stay as close below Domination level, note that controlled land only counts after 20 turns)

Also a useful source is this post (and some others in that thread...
