Default Dominions victory condition

I feel boring when game is looking as my win but i must play many turns to conquer more provinces. And i trying set now dominion victory condition, but here is little problem to calculate how high victory level should be. I dont know how set it on map with 280 provinces when i want win game with around 60% map coverage of my dominions.
I suggest preparing patch or tool which can help.

The only way you can do anything like that is to change the victory conditions when the game starts. Actually winning a game doesn't really get you anything anyway, all you get is a single message saying 'A True God had ascended!' before getting dropped back on the start screen.

Actually, it just quits the game. Annoying feature that one.

Its a hint that after a long game victory, you should stop playing Dominions and stop waisting your time

Hmmm....
--postexec Did_I_Win.sh (or .bat)
have it check the last scores file, or the last debug file.
If there is a winner then display screen-sized image of glory.jpg and play cheering.wav file

It would work for solo games at least.
That would be rather self-gratifying. I might do that.
