Why a free tech advance?
I dont know why but I recieved a tech advance for no apparent reason. I was portugal(seafaring/expansionist). I researched map making(presumably the first to get it), and it prompted me for my next research project, I selected bronze working(4 turns), then instantly it said it was completed, and prompted me for another one.....
seafaring civilization... mapmaking.. first to discover. It sounds like there is a connection, but I have never read about anything like this. anyone? |

Are you sure it was map making? Philosophy gives the first person to research it one free tech of their choosing. I was confused the first time that happened to me with conquests.

IMO, moving it further back in the tech tree simply hands the advantage to humans specifically, as opposed to expansionist civs in general.
