Foreign tech trades + tech beelining

[Kuningas]

This thread is to keep track of each tech trade. It's easy to see how many beakers we have gained or lost.

Below is my suggest for order we learn techs and beeline to MT.

Tech, turns left
Calendar, 2
Currency, 10
Meditation, 2
Philosophy, 1 (GS LB)
Music, ?
Nationalism, ?
Military Tradition, ?
Paper, (trade?)
Education, ?
Gunpowder, ?

we could swap med for poly with piffle.

why dont we go for music next? outside chance we get a GA

or nationalism
machinery
constitution
paper-we can bulb paper as by the time we have bulbed philo and researched them 4 techs with calendar and currency first we should have our second scientist.

then we can research democracy and get emancipation on the go.

just an idea really

 

[Robi D]

This is a good idea

I would propose to trade Piffle Monarchy(429) for Meditation (114) and Archery(85). It would still leave us slightly in beaker debt to them but a lot less.

We could then trade Innovia Archery in a future tech deal

As far as the research path goes, why not try for libralism or do you think Epsilon would have already gone that way.

And these are the current research times
Music 16, Nationalism 55, Military Tradition 61, Paper 19, Education 55, Gunpowder 37.

 

[BCLG100]

Liberalism will be well gone, epsilon will be able to bulb half of it.

paper--->education--->liberalism

depends what they want as a free tech though as to how early they get it.

 

[Kuningas]

I assume Innovia/Loco/Piffle would go for Currency. Have you asked about their research direction?

If they do, we may research tech Music next. Great Artist won't lightbulb any good techs though, first Drama -> Theology -> Divine Right. We could self research Drama and then bulb Theology which might become useful for its Theocracy civic.

btw how we are going to get Meditation?

 

[Robi D]

When we send machinary to innovia
