Active missions will not be reintroduced to screw up with victory conditions. Reducing who wins a close game down to who gets a lucky RNG roll on a spy mission is bullshit, even or perhaps especially if hte number of spies are limited.

Military should be removed to prevent it from screwing up victory conditions
If the problem is the RNG, remove it and modify the costs to the current average (or whatever increase you think is necessary). If the problem is the lack of counterplay, add some (make a weaker defense building to go along with courthouses, add defense to an underused civic).

Did anyone mention that 'paya and spaceship parts both have 100% production boosters still?

I fixed paya back in 2.0.7.4 iirc and the space ship stuff was never changed on purpose as they aren't wonders.

I've played a couple of really fun games on BRick's 34 civ pangaea with 3.0.0.3. I didn't dislike the changes I thought I would (Quays, HE needing a Colosseum and the extra specialist slots) but I hated unpillageable villages and towns. Not for offensive reasons, but when I wanted to re-purpose a city with my workers I didn't see why they couldn't build something else on top.

JC on emperor and Nappy on Deity. Stopped both games around Sci Meth when I'd eaten at least four opponents and got double the score of second place
My strategy was to pick a civ in Europe, weather the initial onslaught and then claim you can beat Deity! (Probably helps that I started with all the food techs and Archery and didn't feel like removing them...) I'm having a go with Genghis now to see if it's as easy in the more barren areas.

I imagine that finding towns all over the place due to AI stupidity is going to cause more aggravation than when you conquer humans due to more sane tile improvement locations.

Through Python, it's straightforward enough to make it effectively so that you can build over Towns with your own tile improvements, but not pillage them during war. In CvEventManager.py, you could add on to onUnitPillage to replace pillaged Towns and perhaps reduce the amount of pillage gold received.
Alternatively, using just the XML, you could make Villages pillage into Villages and Towns pillage into Towns. This would still require some tweaking of pillage gold to prevent potential abuse, though.
