  • Looking at this a second time i think he just made a good deal, Vikings paid a whole voucher plus a tech just for an Russian tech.

        The deal I made was exactly the same as the one made with the Celts. I had no Vouchers and both had Techs I wanted. In both cases I offerred a higher value - beaker terms - Tech on the understanding that both Vouchers would be provided by the other Civ. Hence 'Tech + Voucher from Vikings, Tech to Vikings. Russia = 0 Vouchers.'!

        These were both perfectly legitimate Tech Trades which allowed Russia to gain a Tech when lacking any Vouchers. The cost to Russia was that it gave a high value Tech for a lesser value one. The cost to Celts/Vikings was that they had to provide both Vouchers! You have always stated that Vouchers can be traded just like Gold, Land, Tribute or anything else you may wish for. No rule was broken by Russia or even 'bent'. All fair and above board. How else are smaller powers ever going to gain high value Techs at this late stage in the Game? How else are larger powers going to be able to gain Techs, without backward research, at all?

        I made similar deals upon taking over Russia - just the other way round - to compensate for the parlous state of Russian research in the past. Records will confirm this.

          I still don't know who lost this voucher.

          Most probably Metalheads, HRE or Celts

          • Khmer is done.

            My detailed post explains it. I gave two techs to Maya (-15) and got two vouchers from Korea (-13).

              • 1 Tech to Natives - 1 Voucher received for trade
                Russia all done

                • Recieved 1 tech from Russia in return for 1 Voucher.

                  This would leave Russia with 1 voucher left to use.

                  Natives have 1 voucher left to use as well.

                        You could always give me a second Voucher and I'd bless your Teepee forever!

                            • From Oldonia - 3 Vouchers
                              To Oldonia - 1 Tech

                              Russia = 2 Vouchers remaining
