We are on a path to Monotheism. In the event an advance leading to Monotheism is unavailable, what should our alternate path be?

Invention to get us to Leonardo's Workshop,

or,

Navigation to better explore our world?

[MBloomIII]

Gramphos did an earlier poll that was pretty close so this is to verify those results after seeing the screen shots.

We should be offerred a chance to research Monotheism when Poly is complete because we will have both the prerequisite techs (Poly and Philo). In fact, I sure hope the appropriate Minister is recommending a trade with the Indians for Poly before we get it on our own. We might be able to pursue Mono at once with only a couple of turns to go for it.

Cavebear I'll give it a try and be very gentle...
and if they don't want to exchange==> LEO:a great way to make a great army

Invention, I say!

[steelehc]

I say invention too. Because if we get the workshop, eventually our settlers will become engineers, and that will increase the ability of my ministry to build new cities.

Generaly, navigation is nearer and easy to reach for facilitate exploration and transport.
For Leo's, we have time, as AI does'nt rushbuy wonders if he discover invention before us.
Conclusion : navigation first, then invention.

[Hywel Dda]

I entirely disagree. Suppose someone gets invention and then we aren't offered it on our next research choice? Get invention safely in the bag now if Monotheism isn't a choice.

I agree with JCP. Normally, I'm a big fan of Invention, but on this world, it really looks like Navigation will offer us a greater payoff.

I think the chances that we'd lose Leo are pretty small, and as long as we prepare our camels in advance, we should easily win that race, too.

Vote Navigation, ppl !!
