Back when research agreements (RA's) instantly gave you a free tech I used them all the time. Then they made it so that you only get a boost to current research and I almost completely stopped using them. I know this is a mistake. But is there a strategy to using RA's? If I'm 4 turns away from discovering a tech and my RA is going to be fulfilled that same turn, what do I do? Does it help at all if I switch to a tech that will take many more turns to complete? Will my RA go to better use that way? If I'm 1 turn away from getting a new tech and fulfilling a RA do I just leave them alone? Does that "waste" my RA?
I guess I would like to know 2 things: How many turns (or beakers) does a RA provide to me once it is completed? And, is there a smart way to time them with what I'm currently researching in order to maximize their bonus? Thanks all.
