I postponed getting the tech civil service for a long time, since that tech makes your GScientist follow the bulb path Paper->Education->Printing Press->Scientific method.
None of these techs I really wanted. (Eventually I want printing press since it's on the way to rifling, but I want this later.
First priority was to be able to bulb chemistry to reach steel quicker for cannons.
Thats the reason why I haven't had the opportunity to get to burocracy for a long time.
Why I haven't after this, is because I don't want the turn(s) of anarchy, I was holding out for a golden age.
Upkeep for burocracy isn't of high relevance.
If the capital was better I guess it would make more sense to revolt to burocracy as soon as the tech are in. But here I don't think so.
Yes, I was abit dissapointed (if relieved) that I got Maos support.
But ever since I saw that the main continent turned into Hindu lovefest I did play to at least keep that diplo-win option open.
Who knows, maybee Memed is more fond of tanks?

@krikav I have a few questions on things you mentioned earlier in the thread. I'm late to the party, but interested in playing this one anyway. I chose Noble-no huts-no events.
I have seen several mention about not having to pick first tech until turn 5. I think that I'm required to do so on turn 2. Do I need to run an update?
When you asked about turn 18, did you delay your revolution by a turn to get your worker out one earlier?
After I finish my worker and BW is finished, I want my chops to go into my settler. So I build a warrior on the first two turns of a chop and then switch to settler on my 3rd turn. Is that how you guys do it as well? That gives me the benefit of growing the city 2 out of 3 turns to get to city size 2 and then whip the first settler out. Or is my thinking off on that?
I'm still not great at the early turns micro required to play really well, hence the above questions. I am trying to be thoughtful about each move I make with my worker in the early turns not wasting them on unnecessary movements or actions, but still trying to get it all straight.

Probably not. After you're told to pick a tech to research, you can simply deselect the tech you chose and instead bank the
. Until turn 5 you're not forced to commit to a tech to research.@as2w
No problem being late to the party! These threads are ment to stick around and it's often appreciated when they are raised from the dead many years later (or in some cases even decades, lol!).
Regarding tech and 5 turns...
You can press end turn the first five turns, with no tech selected, the beakers are somehow banked anyway. So that when you do commit to a tech, you get all the beakers you have produced previously too.
However if you press end turn at the fifth turn, all those beakers are lost.
We use this to our advantage, since we don't have to decide what tech to start with untill we have at least scouted a tiny bit of our surroundings. Very convenient!
I had to open up the game again to remember regarding turn 18.
Tech rate is slower at deity than it is on noble, so the timings might be completely different.
I went BW first, but did not revolt to slavery until around turn 30 or so, when my first settler was in transit toward city #2. (This is good practice, since revolting before the settler is out often delays city#2 by one turn. Revolting after the settler is out and before city#2 is settled minimizes losses. Simmilar it's nice to revolt when you have a workboat in transit in some coastal starts.)
Worker was done 2 turns before BW, so he had time to enter a forest and then had to skip turn for one turn.
At the time BW was in, copper was revealed.
I opted not to direcly move to copper, since I was already inside a forest, not wanting to waste more worker turns, so I chopped that forest.

Actually they are not lost, but they are assigned to a tech. I don't think it's random, rather a choice by AI.
