Hi,
In Ancient Age despotism while researching republic I tend to use 10% sci as long as it costs only 1-2 gpt. Where it gets to 4-5 gpt I switch to one scientist and save my money for rushing buildings as soon as I get republic.
Question is, what is the best time to switch back to the slider bar and speed up the republic. Too early costs more than 1000 gold (40gpt*25turns). But later (after 10-20 turns at 1 sci) the cost goes down.
The economic benefits from republic are large enough to justify some spending to speed it up (altough I may want to finish some wars first).
I have looked for recent threads about how fast the cost of completing research started at 1/40 goes down so I can decide when to switch over but all I found was threads that are more than a year old.
I have civ Gold which apparently includes PTW (which I upgraded to 1.27f)
Any suggestions about where to look?
Thanks,
Seagull.
