For a domination victory how much land has to be conquered?? 1/3, 2/3 etc??
 
2/3 land & 2/3 population.
 
That seems pretty hard to do. i prefer the military style.

Um Domination, is usually military style, unless you meant Conquest, where the only real difference is, instead of razing all cities you take, you install a govenor and build a temple to add to your territory.

You may set the percentage to whatever you want (or is that feature added in c3c??:confused: :confused: ) , but default is set to 66% for both
 
I don't see the point in razing cities. I'm pretty sure there's a post about it but i still can't see the point. If you build stuff you can still sell it anyway and i've never had the enemy turn down a city either even though it was in the smack middle of my territory (it was a city that i took from them) and they accepted so i took it back the next turn seeing as how i was at war with them anyway.
 
why would you raze a city?

A.) prevent it from culture flipping.
build your own city in it's place, since the new population is 100% your own and not foreign it's less likely to culture flip, since the people will have more loyalty to your own culture then the foreign culture.

B.) If you are specifically aiming for a Conquest victory over a Domination Victory. Going for Either you are garenteed to get at least 2/3 of the population, however if you don't raze any cities you are more likely to get 2/3 of the land mass granting you the Domination Victory over the Conquest victory.

C.) Just as a little bit of vengence against an AI that got ya mad. ie. they launch a surprise attack or raze one of your cities, you raze one of their cities in return.

Those are the only reasons I can think of
 
Get mapstat - counting tiles by hand is crazy :crazyeye:
 
the first time i won this victory i didnt even relize why i won at first but i was fightin a war and won it was strange problem with this victory is it can ruin a good war

How many tiles are on each size of map?

There's a couple of utilities for that, (MapStat). It's not an exact number every time though.
