Term 5 - Science Department: "From Alchemy to Chemistry"

[jorge_roberto]

I agree with Cyc and Shaitan. We can't compete against other civs being Monarchy at this level. We won't discover any technology before evebody (or most of then). So, it's less expensive to trade technologies than research than.

I don't believe that we should even think about raising the science rate before we have conquered America, moved the Palace to a more effective location and built a good number of libraries throughout our new acquisition at the very least. However even once these conditions are met it is quite possible, indeed likely, that we will still find that raising the rate is a retrograde step.

I hear by declare that the plan for to increace the science rate to 30% has been trashed .

Tech trading is always expensive. It's also less expensive than researching for ourselves. No matter which way you slice it, right now we waste money if we do our own research. Later in the game when doing our own research won't lose money we should raise the slider. Right now it should stay at zero.

You are right Shai, we should preserve our income for the military.

CivGeneral,

Please look over and respond to my plan for our military response to India's agression. It needs some ironing out so please join the discussion.

Four Rally Points Against India

We are inching closer to Military Tradition, and it's possible that we could have it within the next few tun chats. What are science's plans for the next techs?

 

[GenMarshall]

The plan, once we have military tridition, we should research Magnetism and other Tech prereqs that are needed in order to advance to the next era .

 

[Strider]

I urge the Science Department to think about opening a discussion on making more scientist's in are cities. This could boost are science research with little gpt damage.

K, and done

As there may be a turn chat early in the term (ie. Saturday or Sunday), I would like to suggest that the current officials carry out their responsibilities in preparation for that potential turn chat.

We are now in the position to acquire Steam Power (depending on price...) and we should establish a queue for several turns in advance in the event that we are able to acquire a series of technologies in a trading flurry. Also, if we do eventually get ToE, we want to have at least three more techs enqueued so that we determine which free techs we get, not the AI.

Thank you for your attention to this matter and your service this term.
