Hi all,
Long time lurker, first time poster.
Like a lot of people's first comments on the forums, I'd like to thank everyone, particularly the regulars, for all the time they put into this forum and how much it has helped my play. I have moved from Prince to Immortal in the last 6 months, mainly due to the wealth of Knowledge available here. I have only won one game on Immortal and that was as HC of the Incans, so it doesn't really count. But I'll keep on trying.
Anyway, I adopted the binary research idea since I started on Emperor and can appreciate that it helps because of the CIV's rounding down mechanism. However, setting the science slider to either 0% or 100% means that either your commerce multipliers or science multipliers have no effect part of the time (putting aside specialists and shrines/corps headquaters). I have recently been wondering whether this factor makes binary research less effective?
This is a maths question and I am probably being lazy asking, but I know there are some in the forums who love the calculation side of CIV, maybe they can help.
Thanks in advance.
