Hi all,

Playing with Carthage on an archipelago map, deity.
I went Progress, founded with Holy Law and Synagogues.
The leaders are 7/8 techs and 1/2 policies ahead.

How would you enhance? Only Sacred Calendar was taken (Byzantium).
I'm tempted by Prophecy. In two turns I could try for Borobudur. And for the followers, Orders maybe?

Thanks!

I generally find Borobudur pretty unexciting because there isn't much use for faith after a certain point. So you have access to lots of missionaries/GP because you don't have that much else to do with faith.

Symbolism is the general best enchancer, it is better with tradition but it still gives you a bunch of free great people. Syncertism is good if you expect lots of religious pressure.

In a similar fashion I'd take pagodas if you expect lots of pressure and the faith or culture per pop if you don't.
 
Probably not. It does depends how big your cities plan on getting too though. You have them all locked currently.

When I'm actively spreading and my cities seem incompetent at running specialists as Progress/Authority usually I pick Veneration if I can, but it's usually picked first by AI. Then Scholarship, or if for some reason I have the specialists already available (Forges/Libraries/Walls of Babylon) then Creativity.

If I know fighting will be 100% brutal I might first pick Orders instead of any of these.

If I'm founding late and don't have much religious ambitions and don't think I need Orders then I agree Pagodas.
