Sorry folks, but I thought everyone's goal was to win the game .

The reason why I took your city first had nothing to do with your hosting (btw thanks for doing that and thanks to berXpert and Nukeboy for playing too). I simply made a roundtrip in space to all cities when I had my first space plane. I made that trip in a counter-clockwise direction. My intent was to find, nuke and occupy berX's city first, since he had some interesting wonders (Edison's, the Internet ...), but I looked at the tech-transfer diplomacy screen before I tried. I saw that he already had the knowledge of space flight. So I guessed he had built SDI, rendering impossible this approach (I didn't want to waste a nuke for trying). So I continued my trip and reached Nimrod's city. Aboard the space plane were two marines. As it turned out, it was unnecessary to nuke the city, since the first marine, which I sent out for testing, managed to take out the two ancient units guarding the city. So I had two intact cities, a space plane with a marine and a nuke (actually I had a nuke for each of the other cities at turn 110, but I decided it was much more fun to use them together with the space plane, which I didn't have at that time). The next logical step was to conquer Nukeboy's city. And with three cities vs. one victory is only a matter of time.

Conclusion: Never let one player get Quantum Physics and Advanced Composites long before you have it in a One City Challenge type game .

Have fun with OCC 2!

I'd rather not do scenario and just play with the one city and later sea cities and space cities if we even get that far.

i tried the scenario pack.

im having problems both with starting PBEM games (it wont go beyond the screen where you choose names, civs and addresses) and with reloading a SP game (it gives a bunch of error messages and either doesnt load or some features of the scenario are simply "forgotten", e.g. that trade goods should give 5 instead of 10)

I'm very fleixble regarding the type of game we play. I would be willing to play a regular game and for those with issues with the Apolyton pack perhaps we could play a separate game for those agreeable.

FYI, quiting and restarting CTP before and after playing scenarios helps to prevent file confusion on the programs part.

I would like to see an 8 player OCC. Would make things interesting. Another game could be started at any time with the scenario.

Queue Tricks:

Building a granary until 1 turn till next pop growth. Rush buy granary, in build queue, add settler then delete granary in queue. Build. One settler for a third of normal cost. This can be done with any units. You can also start with somthing cheap like city walls, temple, or capitol. Rush buy them. Switch the queue to somthing that cost a little bit more. Rush buy. Switch to something a little bit more. Rush buy... As you progress ,you will spend less money than if you tried to rush buy that, lets say factory, right out.

i see.

i noticed that when you start building a unit or improvement, then midway switch to the other type, you will normally lose some percentage.

however, im used to setting my production via build queue. so if you change it by adding an item to your build queue and deleting the orignal one, you dont get that penalty.

is that okay ?
which one is the bug / cheat here ?

Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

You can switch items in your build queue, adding and deleting, freely. Its when you rush buy then switch that the bugs come in to play. Settler/granary trick I think is another common name for it.
