I'm building my forces including gunships, bombers, mechanized infantry, modern armor, cruise missiles and hopefully nukes then I'm going to stomp them into the dirt so hard they see mole people.
Oh, and I changed the game settings so you only win via domination. When I researched satellites, I saw the Ottoman empire finally. It's a Terra map, which means all empires are dumped on 1-2 continents with other continents out in the ocean to simulate the European Old World and the American New World, but with randomized land. They own basically an entire continent and have over 40 cities. And nukes, they have nukes. fml
