I'm playing my first game of BNW and the time has come for me to choose an ideology.
I'm having a difficult time choosing between Freedom and Order. Please help me decide.
I'm playing as Arabia and my gold income-per-turn is excellent. I also chose Mercantilism (-25% buying) and I've built Big Ben (-15% buying). So if I choose Skyscrapers, I'll have -70-something% when buying buildings! This makes Order extremely tempting.
I've been neglecting great writers, artists, musicians and archaeologists. My culture is good only because of my cultural city-states. My tourism is only +2, which is why I'm bee-lining radio in hope of building the Eiffel Tower. Also, my last cultural pick was the opener for Aesthetics; did this in hope of making up for my lack of great writers, artists, musicians and tourism.
I've built only 6 cities. I only have room for maybe one, possibly two more.
The only other civ which has an Ideology is The Zulu and they have chosen Autocracy. My army is one of the smallest and the Zulu's is the largest; but luckily I don't share a border with them.
Based on this situation, which Ideology do you recommend I choose? Thanks in advance.
