Aaargh! I just detailed the story of yesterday's OCC win in some 5000 characters only to find it deleted because "the system could not log you on". I know, I should have typed it in Notepad and pasted it in; I'll do just that the next time.

Anyway, the purpose of this thread is to collect ideas, new twists and recollections of all sorts on the subject of an OCC in Colonisation. Feel free to chip in, and if I can ever be bothered again to remember yesterday's game, I will post it here.

An obvious help/hint, build your city on an island..

See My post in "How Many Cities to Build"

I haven't tried this, sounds like fun. If you are restricted to one colony are you still allowed to capture enemy colonies if you can disband them the same turn?

Yeah, usually Just to get the supplies and colonist.
