Math from the Zulus & Trades for Profits.

[GenMarshall]

In the recent save. We can get mathmatics from the babs plus 57g from them. Also, we have some "safe" techs that can be traded (IE Writing, Polytheism, and other non-military techs)

For the Zulus
We Give                    They Give
Polytheism                   57g
                           Mathmatics

For the Babylons
We Give                    They Give
Polytheism                   25g
[i]or[/i]
Writing

For the Romans
We Give                    They Give
Polytheism                    1g

For the French
We Give                    They Give
Polytheism                    25g

Note: In regards to gold, this is what all they have in there treasuries.

Polytheism isn't a safe tech CG. It is worth over 100g, yet you're trading it away for a mere 25! None of those trade offers are any good.

The Roman deal looks pretty sweet.....

CG, as a leader, you have the authority to pare down options that the people will never go for. Therefore the only option worth discussing is the Zulu deal.

That said, I like it. It gives us a military benefit in Catapults, and gets us some gold to boot.

And I guess further discussion can be had to further trade Poly once it is in Zulu hands. Is the 25g worth beating the Zulu out of this gold? Or should we hold on to it in case another trade possibility comes up? I would personally hold on to it.

 

[GenMarshall]

Well we need to gain Mathmatics

 

[Zarn]

I would go with the Zulu deal. We can use both the cash and tech.

 

[blackheart]

Zulu deal is the only decent deal up there. CG, could you not trade polytheism to the French now that we're having this conversation?

I have posted a poll on this subject:

I wish to apologise for the delay of the discussions since I have recently been tied up with the first week of college.

Ill consider, not trading Polytheism untill we are more advance on the tech tree. The trades I posted here are only possible trades in this turn ATM.

the science department currently endorses the zulu trade, polytheism has no use in vanilla escept to get to monarchy, which the ai usually gets last

also that gold would help us upgrade another warrior
and finally math is a pre req for many important techs

 

[Chieftess]

I agree with math. We need the catapults. Maybe we can research currency after monarchy...

i think literature then currency

Actually, I think that after we give Poly to the Zulu for Math and 52, we can then trade Mathaematics for 25 Gold.

Math for 25g isn't a good deal.

 

[Sir Donald III]

Better than Poly for 25.
