I am a Civ addict. I accept this. I can go 6-8 without playing, but inevitably, I fall back in. I was up til 4:00 yesterday playing. I lost to a bull shit culture victory. Sure I could re-load the game and declare war to prevent their victory but I have a very small standing army. Declaring war would force me to use nuclear weapons.
I have only used nukes once and I still regret it. I situation was very similer. I was going space race victory. The Egyptions won with a culture victory. I re-loaded the game, and began producing nukes. I began with a few warheads, but soon I had my entire economy mobilized to produce ICBMs.
I still hear the screams.
If this game can not be won with tanks, bombers, and espinage then it may not be worth winning.
