Research discussion for Fanatica in the Ancient age

Since I have seen virtualy no discussions on research. I have decided to bring the topic forward on what we should research.

Here is what we are currently researcing on: The Republic

Here are the following that are yet to be researched: Construction, Polytheism, and Monarchy

We are reaserching a tech that is not needed to advance to the next age. I would recomend that we research Construction and Polytheism and pick up Monarchy via trade.

We need to also start discussing our goals for the middle age's. Are we going to make war? If so knights would be a nice addition to our offensive, are we going to build up? If so, banks would be wonderful.

I just made a thread dealing with Germany, and how to research.

The general assumption is that we get construction and polytheism from trading. Please see also
this poll.

My opinion is that we should be able to get monarchy from trading also.

And the Middle Age research tremendeously depends on which free techs the scientific civs get and how we can trade for them. IMHO any turnchat should be stopped at that time because discussing all possible combinations in advance simply is too complex.
