Yo folks, i am new here. Have started playing Civ3 since 2 weeks ago. Really addictive game!
Anyway, noticed that when i have about 30 plus great cities (size 12 & above) with library, university et al, i can often research very fast (4 turns). However, after i expanded & conquered more cities (i now have over 110 cities) my research rate has became slower. FYI, in the new cities, some have library some don't. Why?? Is the research rate an average of all your cities?? Or is it just because the later science discovery requires much more research. In this case, then surely no one can afford to keep just 30 great cities throughout the game & maintain a fast research rate?? Would appreciate if some experts can enlighten me.
Btw, this site is excellent & the tips extremely useful! Well done!
