    Since I have a strong "sandbox gamer" streak in me, I often check F8 and F11 - the better to admire the greatness of my creation! BEHOLD!



    This has, on occasion, actually been useful, though I don't play on high enough levels so that the AI is actually a culture-victory threat.

    The trick isn't to break some eggs to make an omelette, it's convincing the eggs to break themselves in order to aspire to omelettehood.

      In my current game (Monarch level) the Sumerians somehow managed to pack five Ancient and Medieval GWs into Ur. I'm gonna have to take that city out before they hit 20k culture, which never been a threat in any of my games before that I can recall. The addition of extra GWs in C3C no doubt helped.

      They're also heading for hitting 100k total culture 'fore the game is over, but my culture is now about half theirs and growing quicker, so that's less of a worry.

        I remember having disabled the cultural victory a long time ago, when I was still at regent, because I thought it was too easy for the human player and not funny.
        I am now beginning with emperor and I have keep it disabled.
        Do you think that at higher levels, I should enable it back? Is it really funny?
        My take is that above emperor it starts to be a problem and I have given up trying to win at Sid with culture on. The thing is that you need two strong or equal AI's to offset each others culture or you will have big problems.

        This is because they have such cheap build cost that they will build those culture structures very soon. They will get most of the wonders from the first two ages.
        The other thing is that you will find it hard to beat them down early as you move up the levels because they get so many extra units and suppport.
