        Well, maybe that forum was not a great idea, but we can still use this thread.

        If we want to leap-frog or buy technologies, we should first have a list with techs we currently have and which techs the data angels / gaians / sparta has. Only then we can start a serious discussion about the techs.

          OK, I found the techs for every faction except Sparta's.

          => Everybody has all level 1 & level 2 techs, except Deidre. She lacks prog. psych, poly softw, nonlin math, field modulation

          => level 3:

          Intell. Integr : Gaia is researching it, we don't have it, everybody else has it.
          Opt. Comp : only Gaia doesn't have it
          Ind. Autom : everybody has it
          gene splicing : everybody has it
          adapt econom : only Gaia and Hive don't have it
          adapt doctrine : Univ, Peace, Angels have it

          => level 4:

          neural grafting : we are researching, Hive and Univ don't have it.
          synth fossil fuels : everybody has it
          ecol eng : everybody has it
          cyber ethics : Univ, Peace, Angels have it
          planet econom : only Univ has it
          Superconductor : only Deidre doesn't have it
          doctr. initiative : Hive is researching, nobody has it
          Adv. Mil. Alg : Univ is researching, nobody has it

          => level 5 :
          air power : everybody has it
          env. econom : everybody has it
          superstring theory : Peace is researching, nobody has it.



          So, Deidre is lacking a lot of techs, the Angels already have everything.

          Let this be a starting point for the tech-leapfrog discussions :-)

            Thank you very much, PJay!

            Is Gaia interested in getting techs at all? I mean, they must already have too much of a tech cost if they lack so many of them...

              summary for the 3 factions :

              Deidre lacks as only faction : prog psych, poly softw, nonlin math, field mod, opt comp, adapt econ, superconductor

              We lack as only faction : neural grafting (but researching now)

              Angels have as only faction : intel integr, adapt doctr, cyberethics

              Sparta offers for sale : Doc Init + Plan. econ. + the Angel's techs.


              If gaia gives us neural grafting, we might leapfrog to MMI.
              If angels give Gaia intel. integr, they might leapfrog to Planet. Economics

              both those are techs no one of us three have and were high on Andid's list.

                  Dear Morgans

                  At the moment a leap-frogging would not be in out best interest

                  The area of Orbital Spaceflight and above is on our to-do list.

                  Like you we want it in peacefull hands instead of the Spartans.

                  With the DA status in tech advances a ecs for tech to increase out instabuild is how future relations are looking.

                    This is probably a stupid question, but I noticed the Spartans have the Planetary Datalinks SP.

                    So the spartans would get any tech we shared with the DA and the gaians, right? That means the leapfrog would be only profitable if we researched things the spartans already have... else they could simply leech on us...

                    or can someone explain this to me?

                      Phenix, I think everybody forgot about that. But as neither the DA nor the Gaians want to co-operate we shouldn't really care now.

                      On the other hand, we can't win the tech race against Sparta who has the univ and the PK as pactmates for easy techs.

                        Well, we will try... if anyone hasn't got a better proposition, that is.
