7 Wonders Duel Victory Conditions & Scoring Explained

7 Wonders Duel can end in three different ways. Military supremacy or scientific supremacy wins immediately; only if neither happens do the players calculate a civilian score after Age III.

Military supremacy is immediate

Every shield you construct moves the Conflict pawn toward your opponent’s capital. If the pawn reaches that capital space, you win immediately. Do not finish the Age and do not compare civilian points.

If the game instead reaches civilian scoring, the final position of the Conflict pawn can award military victory points. Those points are part of the civilian total; they are different from the immediate military-supremacy condition.

Six different science symbols also win immediately

Collecting a pair of identical science symbols lets you take an available Progress token. Scientific supremacy is different: once you have six different scientific symbols, you win immediately.

Civilian scoring happens only after Age III

If neither supremacy condition has ended the game, add your final victory points from the Conflict pawn position, buildings, Wonders, Progress tokens and treasury.

  • Military victory points from the Conflict pawn’s final zone.
  • Printed victory points from blue, green, yellow and purple buildings.
  • Victory points from built Wonders.
  • Victory points from Progress tokens that award them.
  • 1 victory point for every complete set of 3 coins.

Worked civilian total

Suppose the Conflict pawn gives you 5 points, your buildings total 34, Wonders add 12, Progress tokens add 6 and 11 coins contribute 3 points. Your civilian total is 5 + 34 + 12 + 6 + 3 = 60.

The two remainder coins do not add another point. If military or scientific supremacy had already occurred, this total would never be calculated.

Civilian ties compare blue-building points

If civilian scores tie, compare victory points from blue Civilian buildings. If that is also tied, the players share victory.
