NOTE: this is playing on a mod of my own, a modified version of the All Units mod from civfanatics on the Marla gig world Map.
I am playing as the Maya, and I had been in a race with the American for control of North America. I was able to secure all of Central America, the Carribean, and the Western US, with the Rockies, the Missouri and the lower Mississippi as the border. Well, playing on the Americas, we American civs fell behind the Eurasian civs in tech- I have been tyring to catch up, but unfortunately the Americans went ahead of me as well, after a short superiority of my own.
So, I decided to end my American problem with the most radical action, my first ever genocidal campaign. I got my GA and used it to build a massive army- the Americans, who lead the world scoreboard ignored their military might and then, had the gaul to use a right of passage to sneak attack me! Their pitiful sneak attack was turned back, and on the very first turn of war 5 American cities were burned to the ground.
My problem is this- the war is for all intents over- no way the Americans can recover from having now 11 cities burned down, including many of their largest. Now a massive army moves on their capital and other masisve armies on other cities- but I remember that the Americans have the temple of Artemis (now obselete) and perhaps other obselete wonders. Now, part of my genocidal rational was that they have more culture than me, and I don;t want to risk cultural flips while trying to secure cities.
So, should I simply sack all American cities and exterminate them, or should I secure the cities with wonders? Are obselete wonders worth it, or can they safetly be destroyed?

). Seriously, sometimes it just feels great to go against the obvious game benefits and raze a still-functional wonder. Makes me feel like Chingis Khan.
