I tend to build a huge stockpile of caravans/freight and head for a Cecil 
B Demille classic featuring swarms of Cancerproof Shakespearean 
Suffragettes wielding Hoovers, preferrably constructed by Smiths...

I am not sure whether I have ever been beaten by any strategy other than 
use of the timelimit option. Pretty much the first resort of the players 
on the freeciv.org servers seems to be to refuse to permit time enough for 
all the cities and units to be given the appropriate orders. So basically 
they win only by refusing to permit my strategies to be implemented.
