[warrant36]

I was reading the civolopedia and i came accross specialists i read how to create them but when i tried nothnig happens nothing changes. im in ancient times right now and there are a bunch of a guys all in blue. but i cannot hire specialists then i tried playing some of the scerainors that came with the game. and i cannot do it. but howcome i cannot hire my own i can only do it in some of the scenarios

you gotta get those elvis dudes by returning some of the city square production into your city, i guess thats the best i can explain it
then you click on the elvis dude in the city screen and it changes

To hire specialists, just click on a city square being used in the city screen, clicking on it will make you stop using it. It's like taking people out of the fields, on the top of the city screen, you will see a guy that likes like Elvis, he is an entertainer. He creates luxuries to make people happy, click on him, and the Elvis will become a tax collector, he makes additional taxes, click again, and there will be a scientist, he makes extra science beakers. These are the only three choices unless the city is bigger than size 5. This doesn't seem very clear, you should find the section on the manual that talks about this. Thank God for the Table of Contents on the front.

close.you can't hire scientists or taxmen until size 5..just elvi'

The taxcollector gives you 3 extra gold, scientist 3 extra beakers and elvis gives you 2 extra luxuries. These are then affected by MPs, banks, libraries etc.

scientist 3 extra beakers

In all forms of Gov't except Fundamentalism. Fundy gives you 2 beakers with one scientist, and 3b with 2 Einsteins. (Fundy cuts generated science half, including specialist science) .
