if possible, i would like someone to take the time to comment on my strategy, whether it is logical or not. 
I beleive the easiest way to win a game is the Space Race. I start out by making workers and settlers. I increase my civ size and improve it at the same time. I first research Alphabet (if not already obtained) along with Writing and Literature. I then proceed to make the Great Library. Once that is made, i cut all funding for scientific research and gain a large sum of money each turn.
I try my best to avoid wars and battles, buying off people if i must. I do not build any military units in the beginning. Once i have gotten civ advances from the other civs by way of the great library, i proceed to the build as many wonders as i can in my capital city and perhaps a second-largest city. As soon as i can, i move to republic and finally democracy where i stay.
When i enter the middle ages, i return to fund scientific research to quickly find feudalism and build sun tzu's art of war. I then return the funding to 0 to gain more money and get more civ advances for free. Once the inevitable discovery of education has been made, i reinstate funding for science at around 40,50,60%, keeping the luxury slider always at 0. I find democracy, economics, navigation, and physics asap, and then steam power, and refining/mass prod./motorized transport ASAP. then onto ecology, synthetic fibers, and to the rest for the apollo program and alpha centauri.
I keep my cities in check by governors, i never build air or artilery units, i keep the governors moderating all the cities functions except production.
most of my worker actions are automated, i just create them and let them work on their own.
By around 1700s i have tanks and modern armor and about 20k gold. I then make mech inf. to defend what cities i have then i get stacks of modern armors of like 20-50 of them to march and get cities if i must.
I try to get theory of evolution asap and as many wonders as i can. Now that i am farther ahead in scientific research than the over civs and have sometimes 1k time as much gold as they do, i build my military force.
When im fighting other civs, i just send stacks of modern armors against a city, i usually don't bring along defensive units so i rarely take cities over, i just raze them. i then move the rest of the stack to the next city. Its as if i've created an army without needing a victorious unit or a leader. If i do destroy civs, i usually keep their capital cities because they are actually somewhat good at producing things.
I try to ally myself with one moderately powerful civ and try to get the most powerful opposing civ conquered first. Then i move to destroy the next strongest and next strongest to the weakest. This strategy allows the strongest to become weak and the weakest to become strong, allowing me to overcome weakened forces and already weak forces. I usually will make peace terms with a civ with 1 city left, just so i can get all their gold, then i go back and kill them.
When you have a lot of money, you can buy stuff like mutual protection pacts and then just go into war with other civs and the civ you have mutual protection pacts with will go to war with you as well. I rely mostly on oil, rubber, coal and iron, and dont worry too much about luxury resources.
I save a periodical times like every now and then, and before wars and drastic choices. I usually dont plant spies but do establish embassies.
thats basically it, now i've won the past 10 games or so i've played, a few times with alpha centauri, once with population or culture i forget, a couple military ones, and diplomatic ones too
what do you guys think of my strategy? i knows its a lot to read but i would really appreciate your guys's input. any criticisms=:/ any sgguestions=
