Telepathic Office for Technoemphatic Affairs

In line with prophecizing the Cvilizations we never meet, we will also prophecize our next five technologies. The Science Minister will be very thankful to the one(-s) that comes closest of all the Citizens. This question is also part of something bigger. Here we can only choose one out of the 12 given alternatives, where one can specify freely in number 12 the alternatives

Sequence is not important

Maybe the science advisor will use this as a kind of poll on what the citizens want to research?

 

[Cyc]

Monarchy and Iron. We definately need to improve our form of Government quickly and Iron is more important than HBR, in terms of city placement and strategic resource. This is the first Term of the Ancient Age.

Monarchy and Iron and the possible goody huts...

I wish you would have made this a public poll, Provolution.

Cyc , I do not have the direct authority as I am not science minister, but I wanted to instill some perspective on science development. Still, I can set it up as open polling, so everyone can read everybody. What I wanted was people to state their minds.

But I agree with you 100 % on Monarchy and Iron, I made some number crunching (B.Sc. int business) and came up with that the economic gains of Monarchy combined with an early finding of ore, would enable us to focus 100 % on settling and science, as well as culture. Basics first. Originally I had pottery, but with some reflection, I replace that with Monarchy. Granary is not needed with this strategy at all.
This city will provide all we need and more.

Monarchy and Iron I reckon will be the way to go, though personally, as long as this is Archi I would go for Philosophyand trade Alph/Lit/Phil for the techs we miss out on.
