aarrggggggg - I hate this game

The culture can cause you to go legendary if you're not careful. Civilised Jewellers is mroe of a no-no though.

Legendary is one problem, a more likely problem is culture for dom...

Don't spread sushi around if you are going for time...

Why? A massive part of the score is city / population size.

Sushi also increases so if you are close to dom limits it can push you over the edge. The bottom line is to be aware of the dom limits if you are playing for a time VC.

You could accidently trigger a cultural VC too.

edit: didn't notice the 2nd page of the thread. I guess I'm late to reply.

The maps I was playing involved multiple continents and I had taken all of the land on my continent (with 1 tile to spare in the land dom limit). So, dom wasn't a problem. Until I created a vassal and the dom limit changed (this is in the first post).

I hadn't considered cultural victory - luck I missed it.

On some maps, cereal mills are better (meaning less risky) than sushi for time

You also get more food per resource from cereal but the resources aren't usually as common as seafood is on watery maps.

If you like playing on the edge, you can get both CerealM and Sushi. Use Sushi to gorw and then swith to CerealM to stop the unwanted Sushi culture when it starts getting close to legendary. A competing corporation will push out the indigent corporation when it is founded. And its a time game... its not like you have lots of other things to do while waiting for the end than spam corp execs all over the place....
