What's your preferred Civ5 victory? Which would you create?

[Alben Barkley]

Guess I’m auth-right then, cause domination is easily the best. Half the fun in the game is nuking what’s left of the unconquered world into submission. It’s the only truly satisfying ending. As you say, the rest don’t even make sense. Science victory? Build a rocket and go to space? By that logic, the USSR “won” civilization! And the US has already “won” by most of the other metrics. Obviously our culture is very much dominant around the world, we have the most diplomatic influence, etc. We also are militarily dominant, but we haven’t actually outright conquered the world. Civ lets you do that, and it’s easily the most fun. Very satisfying to annex cities or just destroy them.
