Ok you noob's ( just like me ) here's an easy way to train :
Set the galaxy size to tiny-small .
On the opposing empires screen , set the arcean empire , torian confederation or the altarian republic ( one of them , as they are the easiest to conquer ) and set that country to fool .
TO take the other civs out of the game , double click on the portraits of the civs . ( the first click gives an overwiev , the second takes em out ) .
So i hope this works . I manage to get a cultural victory in 30 minutes against the altarian republic without ANY fights . I didint try to do this on a small galaxy , but i know that this does not ever work on gigantic , 'cause they manage to get their culture up themselves .
Hope i helped any newbies in the game , that just wanna train .
