Does anyone have any tips/strategies for completing time victories? I did a quick search of the forum but didn't see a thread.
I've tried a couple games on Immortal/Emperor (large size map) and I keep running into the same issue. I've been playing Hemispheres/continents, so I take over my side, which keeps me under the 50% domination limit (maybe less because i keep a couple small vassals). But then by the 1800s 1900s, everyone starts getting close to Space Victory. I try to keep them at war but even still.
I'm playing another game right now, around turn 300something/500 and have been focussing on maximizing my score. I'm at future tech 40 or so, 100% research getting 1 tech a turn, a good amount of gold, all my cities have sushi and mining, and all I need to do is survive another 200 turns, but the AI, even though many are at war with each other, are building spaceships.
I tried invading the one that is the closest to completion, but this doesn't feel like a long term solution since I can't capture their cities without getting a domination victory.
A couple thoughts I had - in future I can turn off 'no city razing' and perhaps just blast through and raze an AI if they get close to spaceships. Doesn't help me this game unfortunately. Another thought I had would be to mass spies (I do have a big espionage lead with all of them) and perhaps sabotage production over and over in their cities that are building parts. This feels possible but it does seem unlikely I'll be able to keep it up successfully to the end with all the different AI.
Thoughts? For those of you that have successfully done higher level time victories, how did you do them?
