5. Bribe civ A with all your luxes and GPT to DoW civ B, then DoW civ A (which you were going to do anyway) on the same turn, putting them in a two front war at no cost.
there actually is still a way to directly exploit #3 by starting to build a fort which will disconnect the resource/lux after a turn of work.
Is that a MP thing? Because in SP, the second DOW on a CS come with a harsh penalty!I never take CS by declaring and peacing every turn, with shots in between turns. And when other people do it I hate it a...

Going for culture victory since BNW. Worst feature ever.
Lack of understanding of the mechanics doesn't equate to lack of quality.
Tourism for me, is like winning through score. It's a stat whos only purpose is to win the game (and enemy unhappines, meh).
So, I have 0 fun going for tourism victory. When it was culture victory, more culture meant more social policies, so it was making my empire better.
But now, like I said, for me it's like going for a score that makes me win.
The whole concept is lacking. If tourism would steal enemy tiles for example (not saying it should, it's just an example), or anything useful, then I would like it. But now, I play like it didn't exist.

But if what you like about a victory condition is that it makes your empire stronger, how does building a spaceship part fit into that? Certainly the Utopia Project of the previous iterations was a useless thing that you built only so that you could win.
Chum said:I assume you only win via domination then, because Science is a complete joke
If you want to call Culture "the worst" then obviously something has to be best. Well, science is pretty much a "next turn" until you finish the tech tree and either spend a bunch of hammers or a bunch of gold in order to win
