I've never done a WC, but as Russia it should go something like this:

1. Build lots of lots of units
2. Annex China in one go(possible with uncivs)
3. Now you have a huge amount of everything. Use it.

I think Ricky still has a loophole present in most PI games: The ability to annex all of a country except the capital in one go by occupying all land except the capital and let it be taken by rebels. Then, when the government collapses, you get all you occupy. Also, when you are big and unstoppable, nothing forces you to wait till the peace treaty of 5 years ends...
