    One City Challenge.

    Win the game by spaceship only ever having 1 city.

          It might be very helpful to study the tips revealed by Paul on his Civ2 OCC Webpage.

          Furthermore I would advise to start with one of the first comparison games as the difficulty gradually improved...

          Good luck, I hope you give it a try, OCC games are really faster and don't give it up if your first game end's with a defeat - it's named a challenge...

            OCC stands for Very Difficult Game.

            I think I have made the mistake of playing on normal, random maps rather than the created ones. I can never find the right territory, either not enough shields or not enough food.

            I have got as far as:

            - being the leading civ in science
            - making 6 spaceship components by 2020
            - actually surviving the whole game!

            And it is relatively quick, but no less addictive.

              Another thread asked if you ever cheat. This might be as close as I come to cheating these days. When I decide to play an OCC game, I will continue to restart until I get an almost perfect starting position. (If I can't find one within 5 to 10 moves) If I'm going to play OCC, I might as well start out in a good position.
              Then again, even that doesn't ensure victory.
