Tried my hand at an OCC game today for the first time with Civ IV. Only played Prince level to give me a feel for the style of play and used Qin. Admittedly I didn't get an ideal start, but it wasn't too bad. Health was an issue and I could have used some more food resources.
But my question is, what techs do you experienced OCC players beeline for? I lost in the mid 1900s when the Indians launched their spaceship. I was behind in tech most of the game, but was starting to catch up in the late stages. I had just shy of 700 beakers in my city at the end. I think my problem was I got side-tracked early on with techs (well, really throughout as I kept jumping around the tech tree for advances to address problems)that could have waited and it slowed me down.
