It depends on spy luck and if TBS defended our attempt to destroy his Eiffel city (I just logged in to check and it looks like he did defend it properly).
My assumption was that we needed to stop both Elen getting to 50,000 and BC getting to 22,000. That's easy if we destroy Eiffel, if not then a fairly conservative estimate of how well our spies perform (ie that they knock out the remaining cathedrals one-per-turn) has us tying on t274

It looks like TBS paid a fair price for the artist and I don't really want to quibble over minor rules, given how messy the whole game was. But I have a habit of bending over backwards to be nice when I shouldn't, so I think I'll let Fintourist manage the post-game shitstorm phase

Most importantly, what have we learned from this game? Don't ever be a map maker.
