There are three ways to win the game:


"UN Victory", essentially like "Diplomatic Victory" in SMAC is added.

Conquest

Spaceship


Civ3 will not have Corporate (Economic) Victory.

It looks like you will be required to build a spaceship in civ 3, which means that will be the science victory, looks like future techs are back.

Don't leap to Conclusions; it's a pretty boring place
Your reasoning from the facts to the conclusion escapes me at the moment.

I, as well, fail to see your logic behind your statements, Alex.

What I fail to see is where they got there information from. Some of it looks dodgy. I have never actually seen evidence of the Mongols in the game at all, but have seen the Spanish in the game (city of Salamanca).

So what you see there, I would take with a pinch of salt.

I think those victory conditions are correct. I am not sure but I think I read the same info from another preview...

The spaceship parts were developed from named techs in Civ. Are you suggesting this proves that there will be a few forward-looking techs in Civ 3 (which I think we agree on) or that it proves the repeatable "Future Tech X" will remain for when the tech tree is completed?

Of course the spaceship victory is back. Just look at the screenshots that we have been shown.
