Cultural or economic victory

[juliancoleman2162]

Just wondering if anyone has achieved these yet. Cultural victory seems very hard to get on my current campaign with Pontius I am confident I will get an economic victory. But I doubt I will ever get cultural victory.

I actually found cultural victory the easiest. My first playthrough I won with Rome economically, then Royal Scythia culturally, then Egypt militarily and am on my way to winning a cultural Iceni one now. Not sure about Pontus's in particular, but if they are like the Greek or Roman factions where you can use allies to fulfill military requirements then I do see that as being easiest. For barbarians, however, I think cultural is easiest to aim for. However, I often find myself in position to grab the economic victory first if I focused on the right territories.

Culturally you can get by conquering pretty much everywhere just like a military victory, since your culture would spread when you controlled a province, and building whatever building it requires. That's what I did.

I was going for another Military victory but decide to go for economic. I only need one region to get my last victory province I am surrounded by Allies after that all I need is to get my income to 80k currently around 35k with 100 or so turns left

cultural is very easy i did it as rome bulid a lot of temples and whatever your culture building is and take or ally with the regions you need

yea but you will have to try to avoid getting a military victory because u are much more likely to get that before a cultural victory. you can't get the achievement for all 3 in a single campaign unless u reload a save file.

I had the econnomic victory in my grasp with Pontus but then lost 3 trade agreement from factions getting destroyed. Had every victory condition covered but between turns they ♥♥♥♥♥♥ me over damnit.

Just decide to start again.

People here have said there is no turn limit to achieving ultimate objectives.

I had an economic victory with Sparta on normal under 300 turns. Now I am going for a cultural victory with Parthia on legendary.

Miltary and cultural are pretty easy. The difficulty of economic victory is keeping your trade partners. If there are no longer enough factions to play as, incite rebellions in the territories which reestablish a faction and immediately make a trade agreement. As long as you were not the one to destroy them they should accept.
