We can buy the following techs right now:

Aztecs:
Masonry for 4gpt and 71 gold

Japanese:
Masonry for iron working and 24g
The wheel for iron working and 42g

England:
Alphabet for iron working
Masonry for iron working
Mysticism for iron working
The wheel for iron working

Alphabet and masonry for iron working and 4gpt and 17g
Alphabet and masonry for iron working and 3gpt and 35g
Alphabet and the wheel fo
r iron working and 5gpt and 16g
Alphabet and the wheel for iron working and 4gpt and 34g
Masonry and mysticism for iron working and 22g
Masonry and the wheel for iron working
Mysticism and the wheel for iron working and 39 gold

We can basically acquire three of the four techs:

Mysticism and the wheel from the English and masonry from Japan for a total of 63 gold and iron working to both countries.

Alphabet and masonry from the English and the wheel from Japan for iron working to both and either a) 4gpt & 57 g or b) 3gpt & 77g.

Alphabet and the wheel from the English and masonry from Japan for iron working to both and either a) 5gpt & 40 g or b) 4gpt & 58g.

Official science poll.

FA poll: Trade iron with the English?

FA, term 1.

Trade Dept., term 1.

FNSD, term 1.
 
why didnt someone do this sooner? seriously.
id be happy with either alphabet deal as long as we can go and research writing after this.
it is in this penguins opinon to persue option C, mabey forgoing masonry, and dealing with Monty for it.
I will voice this opionon in the turn chat instructions.
Thank you, donsig, for revealing these unknown options.

Probley because neither the foreign, trade, and science knows who is in charge of doing this.

Just to clear something up, science has authority over tech trades, trade over luxuries and resources. FA doesn't have authority over any sort of trades.

That cleared things up slightly, but then why is the FA posting a poll on if we should trade iron working when it's my job to post the poll? Oh well saved me some time.

Why is the Ministry doing it? huh...dunno really. I just thought it needed to get done. But now that you think of it, it does fall into the department of trade or science.

You tell me why someone didn't do this sooner - you're the science deputy, aren't you!!!

In the first demo game much of the tech trading was done by FA. I give thumbs up to FA for showing iniative but thumbs down for excluding mysticism!

Anyone in our government is also a citizen who can. As a citizen anyone could have done what I did. I just regret that I didn't do it sooner. :(

the !!! behind your post simbolizes that you were yelling (or speaking in a very loud voice).

And you think you've been calm? Try being me you come back from a very bad accident to find out a friend and your deputy is trying to take over your place. Then once you get back into your poistion you get yelled at and yelled at for rules which make no sense in the constitution & you get told your doing a bad job when your doing the exact same thing as you've always done.
 
correction- your deputy (thanks for calling me friend) was trying to follow a c of some sort while pursuing his own egocentric ways. Also, you got back in time to stop me.
and donsig really does need to calm down. i respect his opinions, but hes really trying to kill us all in the science department.
donsig- do you own a cat????

I did say deputy ;)
 
Please get this discussion back to the original topic rather than just how angry donsig is. :crazyeye:
 
Well, the thread is a bit outdated now. I'd suggest a new tech trades possibilities for 2110BC.

I think Strider said there are no tech trading ppossibilities for 2110 BC.
 
I will answer the question up above about why no one did this sooner. This is because the Trade Ministry felt it was Sciences job and vice versa. If I am elected as the new Trade Minister, i promise that if i see something that needs to be done, like this, and the science hasnt done it yet, then i will immediately do it not caring whose job it falls under.
