You let the game last long enough to have nukes? I will teach you the true way of war:

[b]STEP ONE[/b]

Play Songhai.

[b]STEP TWO[/b]

Attack everyone.

[b]STEP THREE[/b]

You win.

Or get ur face rekt in by the Huns. Or the Mongols. Or the Aztecs. Or Zuluman. Or Rome. Or Morocco (I shit you not, I once saw a game where they wiped out almost half of all the other civs before chilling the fuck out, this was also on a map with very little desert tiles too).
