Where to find strategies

Where can I find strategies that detail things like winning the OCC, using the ICS strategy, and the "super sience city"?

Thanks!

You came to the right place. First, stick around, read the other threads and ask questions. Also, check out

RyanR - there is also an archive of old threads here on the main forum page at the bottom; and you can get stuff back a year by changing the settings on the "show topics from the last 10 days" box. Cheers!

Here is Paul's excellent OCC page http://home.planet.nl/~belt0018/occ.htm

Unfortunately all of us who hang out here spend too much time playing and posting to compile an up-to-date strategy guide, so the docs on the reference from my ol' buddy Steve are all getting old and out of date. "Fire!" is pretty good, but I think you would find less than 50% of the stuff in there is now considered accurate.

There are currently 12,086 threads! Hasn't anyone condensed it down to a few pages??!

I guess not.. oh well.. I wanted to know what the Super Science City is.

I just bumped a recent attempt to distill the threads!

Super science city is building an city with trade routes, Library, University, Copernicus, Isaac Newtons, and eventually a research lab to focus all of the bonuses. Great on a 4 trade special location with rivers.

Thanks for bumping up that thread Sten!
