We all know about the issue there was in Vanilla with Education giving too mnay benefits and being too easy too reach.
IMO in G&K Industrialization is going to be the must have tech. It is easy to reach, you only need three Renaissance techs (Banking, Printing Press and Economics) and then you can pop Industrialization itself with Oxford University. And you get a lot of benefits:
- Opens up Industrial era
- Opens up the last three policy trees
- Gives you an extra spy
- Reveals Coal
- Factory
- Big Ben
- And you get the (relatively for that time) extremely strong Gatling Gun. 36 ranged attack, 36 defense, range 1, which makes you pretty much invulnerable to invasion for a long time. You can just put a few on a road, move it up to 5 tiles next to an enemy and then do them 30-40 damage without a reply.
Industrialization needs another prerequisite, or the Gatling Gun has to move later, because at the moment getting the Gatling takes 3 techs less then getting Rifles.
