Which of the tech bonuses (from researching it first) do you think is most powerful, if you consider the stage of the game that you get it. I didn't post all of them, because I screened out the less powerful ones (free legion, free pikeman, etc.). If you wanted to vote for one that wasn't on the poll, tell us what it is and why.
It depends on your playing style of course, but for me the most powerful is Irrigation (+1 population in every city). I have usually ICS-ed enough cities by that point that it gives me an enormous boost.
Weakest? I'd say Globalization (500 gold). 500 gold, are you serious? I just spent 3400 science points (highest of any tech) racing to get this first, and all I get is this lousy 500 gp? No thanks. By that stage in the game, I can switch one or two cities to gold and get twice that in 1 turn!
