Okay, so some questions about this game as I REALLY want to get it, but from all I've heard am not sure it's for me;

Is combat necessary to win?

That is, my favorite way to play is cultural domination. Even if I can't get the culture victory, I often pump culture to the extreme and try to take cities that way, etc. In fact, the fighting is my least favorite part of the game, and I go out of my way to settle wars as quickly as possible.

With only 47 techs and few buildings, according to your review, I am not holding out much hope that this is still possible, BUT I really really hope that I misinterpreted what you wrote, because I really want to get/like the game :-/

 

Combat isn't neccesary. You can win through Culture, combat, space race, building 20 wonders or obtaining 20,000 gold.
