A lot of people are asking what ICS is. And for the most part the general consensus is that it's a stratedgy that involves building a lot of cities.
But we have some interesting dissention in exactly what the ICS is. So what exactly is the ICS? I thought it was creating *SO* many cities that used the resources upon the squares which they were founded so that outproducing the AI becomes exceptionally easy. However, some people think that the "land grab race" is ICS.
So, what exactly is this thing called ICS?
Is having more than 6 cities ICS?
Is having more than 20 cities ICS?
Should ICS be a viable strategy?
Does distance between the cities matter in ICS?
There so much conflict on what this term exactly means, and I simply cannot agree with those whom say ICS is part of the CIV3. There's an early expansion phase, but it never gets so out of hand that cities are appearing 2 squares away from each other.
