Hm okay. Then it's probably screwed up because I'm playing a savegame from before the patch.

I was able to do a puppet focused cultural victory before the patch. Gold was never a problem, and research, by the end, was really high. Finished no where near 1560AD, but it was much faster than spamming cities and building everything yourself, especially since I only founded the capitol so policies came very fast.

That's neither a question nor an answer

Is there a way to influence the AI how to vote in the UN? I am one vote short.

Rik Meleet · 13-11-2010, 15:25

Influence - that I don't know.
Since all citystates get 1 vote as well, ally just 1 more and that's it.

Shabbaman · 13-11-2010, 15:51

That's unfortunately not possible, I already have allied all six remaining city states. So I have 8 votes, and both remaining AI's have 1. I think the only way to win is to liberate an occupied CS or eliminate one of the AI's. Both seem unlikely.

If you have 8 votes and both other AI have one vote then you should win the UN victory easily.

Well, apparently not. I needed 9 (out of 10) votes, so I went for the always easy cultural victory. In the end I was 1 turn away from completing the spaceship (which I could've built if I wasn't building Utopia in my capital), despite not having access to aluminium.

So, that was Immortal. I'm not sure I'm going for Deity next. Perhaps on a duel map, but it's getting a bit tedious.

Talking about tedious, playing a large map atm. Takes ages.

I played 1 large and even 1 huge map. Extremely tedious. Standard size is really the maximum for my attention span...
