Well, here is the poll for the various Monotheism trades that have been proposed over the last two days. It is for Bab Trades 1, 2 and 4 and French Trade 1. This poll will be public and will last for 24 hours in order to ensure its closure by the begining of the TC.

The following are the trades, as they are refered to in the poll. Please vote for one and only one.

Bab Trade #1

Bab Trade #2

Bab Trade #4

French Trade #1

Please vote.

what if we dont want to trade?
abstain doesnt mean none....

 

[Stuck_as_a_Mac]

hmmm... a point.

Could I get a mod to add a "Do Not Wish To Trade" Option?

edit: Thanks RM for adding the Dont Trade option.

Babylon #4! Why is #2 even up... we make more money with #4.

I'm still for my France 1 - Bab 2 hybrid theory. This really isn't on the poll so I'm gonna have to abstain.

We dont have exact numbers on that one. I'll post a request to see if we can get 30gpt or higher from france on it, but we just lack concrete info.

dont trade our lovely monopoly!!!!

I oppose giving up the secrets of feudalism to the Babs. They have Iron ya know...

I agree with Black_Hole and Civanator. Moving through those mountains with pikemen stationed in them will be rough.

I'm afraid that we can't keep Babs without Feudalism much longer. If we make a trade with France Bab will get Feud from them. And probably most of the nations are already researching Feudalism :/.
Better to trade now while we still can get good deals.

 

[Ashburnham]

I agree with invy. Whether we give it to them or not, most nations will have Feud by the time we end up going to war with them. Might as well make a profit while we can. Bab trade #4!

SaaM, I didn't read the discussion thread but don't see the point in including Bab trade 1 in this poll. Is it traditional in DG5 to take less than the max from trading? Is there some reason we'd want to take a pittance less for feudalism?

I applaud your screenshots in this poll.

very much. The increase is only a few gold, but with the first one we are at least guarenteed 19 gold over 8. It is your choice.
Edit, My preference is a Hybrid that deals with the Babs first, we would get a lot of money from them and Deal with the French. The deal will most probably be reduced, but if we can get Monothesism from the French, then that deal would seem to be appropriate.

I Do Not Wish To Trade Feudalism
We can get it in the Roman peace negotiations. Why give the AI pikes ??

To get the gold and Mono. By the time we sign peace with Rome we would research Mono ourselves..
