Well qantaga-- it sounds as if you made the best of a bad range of options of available techs. I will get app pysics in 4 turns and will gift it too you immediately. As for me, I will want both biogenetics and Ind Auto as soon as I finish this tech and start another. The switch to Wealth and rushed rec tanks just seem too good to pass up once the cost of my next tech is set.

So far I am enjoying this but I can't help but think that Googlie has a powerful AI waiting to hit at us. Thats why some weapons would be good--- just in case.

'Terrible blunder' seems to be quite an overstatement, Qantaga. I can live with a 1-turn delay. As for research speed, are you in FM yet?

Flubber, if you intend to take NlM, you will need InfoNets too. HEC should be available with what you already have.

[Qantaga]

Ah, now I feel better. IndAuto is on its way to Tau.

I am now in FM. I went to Wealth last turn, to get a little bump in my Colony Pod production. Then, I switched over to FM this turn, so my rate is currently down to 11 turns.

Thanks Tau for the reminder on the prereq-- I have to make that line on my "tiny tech tree" more apparent.


I may have to rethink impact since i could get HEC (get GS fro you folks) and then go Synth Foss. F.-- Might take a bit longer to get us an available weapon BUT it would be on an attractive beeline

I have also been thinking that the Planetary datalinks might be a worthwhile wonder if all the AI are techsharing in their alliance--

Any thoughts on these random musings

[Tau Ceti]

2115 to Qantaga.

Best case, it is one extra tech needed for Missile... which sounds very worthwhile. And I agree that the Datalinks could be very valuable.

2116 sent to Flubber.

Since Flubber is about to get AppPhysics and send it to me, I am thinking that I will choose SocPsych if it is offered. Then, Tau can send that one to me when he discovers it. That should open up the Secrets of the Human Brain for me. I am currently 8 turns out, but I will have a new base settled in two turns, so that should speed things up a little.

Let me know if this sounds like a good plan or if there is a better tech I can choose once I get AppPhysics from Flubber.

[Flubber]

whew-- finally got in here

it all sounds good-- we need social psych to get Eth calc and on to gene splicing--

I already sent you applied physics and would like to see both biogenetics and Ind Auto for myself for my next turn. Then the next tech I might want would be ones for restrictions lifting as I can do without rec commons for a good while-- I feel rushed rec tanks and then some crawlers are in my future . . .

[Qantaga]

Wow, I can't believe I actually got into Apolyton today.

2117 to Flubber.

Thanks for AppPhysics. I was able to choose SocPsych.

2119 to Tau

I will have my next tech in 5 turns IIRC. I am about to undertake some rec tanks rushing and I am headed into the unity wreckage and hope to get the goodies that come with that.

[Qantaga]

2119 to Flubber.

Good luck amidst the wreckage. Hope you find lots of goodies!
