    i usually aim for transcendance, but if i get bored with the current game, i go for a quick ending diplomatically or by conquest. diplomatic is such an unsatisfying victory though. i never really feel like i worked for it.

      I rotate how I win. If I feel like I need to aquire victory by conquest then I'll do it. I also get bored but I don't end it with victory I end it by quiting and never comming back to the game. I also think that diplomatic victory is too easy and not worked for. I prefer Trancendence or Conquest. Conquest is much more of a challenge.

        Trancendance is it. I love the idea of being a deity

          More posts, that is. And don't get caught spamming.
          Why doing it the easy way if it is possible to do it complicated?

            Conquest is the way for me.

            Though if I'm getting too bored with a game, I'll try one of the diplomatic avenues for victory.

            But if I'm not the Spartans or Hive, I'll try and head for Transcendence.

                Depends on my mood. If I feel murderous , it's conquest. Otherwise, I try for transcendence. Typically, in the late game, I have enough population and energy to do whatever I damn well please.

                Sometimes, I might try for several modes of victory simultaneously (i.e. timing economic and transcendence victory so they happen on the same turn). Never tried for all four simultaneously, though (IMHO, conquest/econ/transcendence can be done, but I can't figure out how to fit diplo in there. Maybe the turn after?).

                    Usually I try for transcendence, but if I get bored I will just go for diplomatic victory after getting all the secret projects I can for the score. The key for transendence is usually getting as many alien artifacts as possible to get all those expensive late techs.

                              Transcendance. Just because it gives the most points and I'm not too good at playing all the factions.

                                I try to win most often by Transcendence. If I get bored in the middle of the game, I will more often quit than vote myself in for Supreme Leader. But I agree that Supreme Leader is infinitely preferable to conquest, which I have only done twice -- it gives more points, and all you need is 2/3 the population (or 5/6 if Lal's the other 1/3).

                                Then again, conquest is available from the get-go, and for an ultra-quick win it's the only ballgame.
