Dear Succesor,
We can probably achieve Optics from Peter, what do you want to research after that? I could think of Civil Service (Macemen + bureaucracy) or Astronomy (Galleons).
What do you think? (And why would we want Monotheïsm on a religionless island anyway?)

 

[Vind2]

I see your point, I was thinking monotheism because it would only take 3 turns. Just to get it out of the way. It also leads to Christianity which aslo leads to paper.

 

[strike700]

Maybe only research it if it would significantly lower the cost of the tech that's next in the queue?

 

[dutchfire]

Well, point is, almost every AI will have Mono anyway, and probably Theology too. So we would be better of if we would acquire it by trading. And paper can be researched from Civil Service too. So in my opinion, researching it is wasting beakers.

Might I suggest Civil service..not only maces but a new civic that will boost research and help you out in the process

Another benefit of going anarchy while we change civics is we will pocket some gold that can be used to upgrade a troop or two and/or be used to jump or sci rate.

Let poll it if you would like. Mono is a lost cause without a religion And I think we will be able to get it from a offshore nation.

Civil service is my unofficial...official presidential request.

 

[Vind2]

ok i guess it is civil service. I think feudalism is required for civilservice.

BTW. Hello from Finland. åöä I love these.

 

[dutchfire]

We don't need Feudalism, it's either Feudalism or Code of Laws, and we have Code of Laws. Civil Service is always good.

 

[Vind2]

Hmmm. I must have missed that. Lets get some discussion on what to research after civil service. Seeing as I won't be able to get the best view on things.

 

[Oldbus]

I've added some Science Info to the Atlas as requested.

 

[Vind2]

Thankyou very much

Vind, with our current war, do you plan on researching civil service for macemen+bureaucracy, or guilds for knights?
