Propaganda |
(Espionage & Telecommunications)* |
H. Lindholm |
| Can make enemy cities and units cheaper to bribe and your own harder. |
 |
Global trade |
Capitalization & Mass production |
D. Credé |
|
Allows cargo ships and passenger ships; increases trade by one arrow each
city square under democracy.

Several Civ player |
| Allows Boing 747 and WoW Jesus Christ Statue in Rio |
|
Special Operations |
Espionage & Combined Arms |
S. M. Punch |
| Allows the new unit type: Commandoes. Ideally, commandoes could be paradropped,
engage in amphibious assaults, ignore ZOC and undertake certain acts normally
performed by the Spy unit (specifically, sabotage, poisoning the water supply
and planting a nuke).

Computer communications |
Microcomputers and Telecommunications |

Mid air refueling |
(Advanced Flight)* |
J. Atkinson |
| Allows tankers. Tankers would be air units that can move over another air
unit and you will get a message asking if you want to refuel the other plane.
If you pick "yes", the other unit is restored to full movement points.
One tanker can refuel up to two units per turn. Air units can be refueled up
to five times. This allows for more realistic air power projection.

Philosophy & Trade |
C. Jason |
| Over the timespan of several lifetimes in Ancient Greece the predecesor's
of Socrates, Hipocrates, and Plato created a system of organized study
and advancement. After centuries of being forgot it was rediscovered in
the Reinissance and is the basis for all modern research.

Advanced communications |
(Radio & Electronics)* |
B. Atwell |
| Allows 'TV' as a city improvement along the lines of colosseum. |
|
Reconnaissance |
Amphibious warfare |
B. Atwell |
| Allows a new 'recon. marine' unit that the enemy only
has a small random chance to see.
|
|
Radar |
(Radio)* |
N. Mc Coy |
| It would allow you to build radar bases which would allow you to see air
units from far away. Also, it could allow radar on planes, which would
increase defense (easier to dodge missles and other planes) and offense
against air targets. Also, stealth would be able to fly without detection.

Biochemistry |
Refining & Genetic engineering |
D. Credé |
| Mankind has dicovered in the last years the benefits of manipulating the DNA
of (still) plants and animals; but also military made used of this and
developped biologycal and chemical weapons.
Allows contruction of biochemistry bombs,
and increases food production in city by one each sqaure.
