I earlier posted for advice on domination a couple of weeks ago. I was told to choose tiny or small pangea with 80% water. This also meant a lot fewer civs to play against. Some folks also set which specific civs they want.
I have won a game or two with those settings. But I'm wondering how people get domination victory on large to huge continents with 60% water and seven to eleven opposing civs. I just can't do it! Even after killing all my neighbors and dominating my own continent, there are still one or two powerful civs on the other continents who are several techs ahead and just can't be killed. They beat me with space race or cultural victory. If I turn those options off, they just end up with higher scores at turn 540.
Do a lot of people actually play domination games on large continents, or is it better to go for cultural/diplo victory in that setting?
