Does turning off victory conditions affect the final score?

from Stardock Forums
If so, how?

I usually find myself wanting to turn off alien tech victory, so I can achieve a military victory with the late game techs. They'res nothing quite like going around the map with a dozen terror stars. LOL

I don't think there isn't any influence. More it helps you to score a military victory when cultural victory is disabled, since the cultural countdown doesn't start :)

Even at war w/ AI you can get a culture victory. Best to turn of the ones you don't want.

Actually this isn't true. The cultural countdown stops if your are at war with any major AI.

Planets will still culture flip, you just can't end the game that way.If the last enemy planet flips, then it is counted as a military victory.

FC is in VA out by Norfolk, I think. He is in the Navy so is often aboard ship and communicates via satellite and only posts his games when in port.

I work in Norfolk. I live in Richmond, about halfway between Norfolk and Washington DC. I have some very strange hours on the ship so I can be on just about anytime. I thought when I registered I had to put my time zone in. So every thing I read shpws up GMT -5 on my screen. Maybe that was the Embassy though.

Or the military could have sent me to Australia for a few days....

Only kidding.

What ship are you on?
Have you been to Fremantle?
I may have sailed around you.

USS Iwo-Jima.

Yes I have been to Fremantle, Sydney, Perth, and one other. Last time I was there was in the late 90's. That's about all I can say about it because of the nature of service.

Getting to Perth on the Iwo-Jima would have been a good trick. ;)

We know months in advance...normally, which ships are coming, where they are from and where they are going.

The pro girls fly in to meet them, then fly out to the next port of call. :)
