Science-poll: research after Monarchy.

[Rik Meleet]

We are hopefully going to get Monarchy in the next turnchat. After that we can research:

Mathematics,
Philosophy,
Code of Laws,
Literature,
Mapmaking,
Other,
Abstain.

I am pleased ( ) to tell you we were beaten to mathematics by the Zulu.

Here is an updated tech-tree:

The Science Department advises to go this way:

What do you want researched ?

This poll will remain opened for 48 hours or when the next TC starts - Time enough to think and vote

Abstain, public poll.

Gotta say map making. We need to know the layout of our continent.

Once again, Science and Culture are what we need now.

Vote Literature.

 

[blackheart]

Literature would help us with more science for bigger research projects in the future. Could you please post a bigger tech tree Rik?

 

[invy]

Voted for Literature.

A proposal:

I would like to propose to Science Department to make a poll of next 3 most wanted techs. Because researching Monarchy always takes long we should decide what techs we want most so we can trade for them. I think Science Department would like to trade our valuable Polytheism to get few more techs and it is now good time to make a poll and decide what do we want most.

When you click on it, it gets bigger.

Yes it does but that tech tree looks very oddly out of place being right next to the large pic of the professor.

literature!!!

 

[GenMarshall]

Literature and it's great library wonder.

 

[Provolution]

What about the vulnerable Zulus, they need the mathematics for the bodycount...

Literature, of cousre. We're just about to start building up culture, and libraries are a great way to help.

I would love to put libraries in queue. Of course, that wouldn't make temples worth any less in my eyes.

Sorry, I forgot a link to the discussion

I leave that up to the new Science department.
The current Science-Department advises to obtain all possible techs with the exception of The Republic as it gains us nothing. Of course the trade-department checks whether trades are beneficial to our nation and in the end the citizens decide.

My vote is Map Making then Literature. Are we prepared to pre-build libraries while we are researching Literature?

Pre-build them?

 

[snipelfritz]

I think what Gregski is saying is that we start building something that will not be finished before we learn literature. Once we learn literature though, we can just change the production to library transferring the shields to that project and ultimately speeding up the prodution.

 

[Dominik]

Wow, did not see Lit somehow and voted for Philosophy. That one vote for Phil is as good as a vote for Literature.

That's great.

okay, monarchy will be taking 36(mayb 32...) turns, if we someone how get monarchy earlier(who knows how), should we research literature next still or do you guys want another poll?

i will be starting a poll on that tomorrow invy
