One City Challenge

[Jon Miller]

has anyone ever done this in Civ3?

I am just wondering because I feel like civing again, and I am not sure if C3C stanard is worth playing yet (it is close deffinitely, but it sounds as if the FP still has problems)

Yeah, sure. Shoot for a 20K culture win. It makes a nice game.

Likewise a five city game where you try to get each to 20K on the same turn so that you win by both 20K and 100K at the same time.

i think the civ total for a culture win is 80000 now.

dunno about the challenge though - sounds kinda boring

There was a thread a few months ago posted by someone who had accomplished the one city win in Civ 3. No idea who it was.

If I am not mistaken Sir Pleb from Civfanatics had a game in which he set up every win condition for the 2050 turn in a milked game of the month. Now, that is game mastery.

Now with conquests you may not even need the MapStat program as they have the % of world right on the victory screen.

This is a full well-written tale of one man's single-city game. Its a pretty good read even tho its slightly dated.

OCC is, I should say, quite easy if you have good starting. It's unlikely to lose a game if you start by a river on shore.

The keys are Colossus, republic and golden age asap, and tourist attraction.

Toe Truck has a few game posted in the strat thread at PTW. I think they are at emperor, but I am not sure.

Dare I ask why you care about FP if you're considering OCC?

Not that I'm suggesting you won't get to use it...

[Jon Miller]

easiest game of Civ3 I have ever played

I've never tried OCC. Probably never will, though its always seemed to be a real challenge.
