  • Wise Men to Research -- WHAT?

    What shall our wise men study? Although we have a tech lead, there's a lot of important stuff on the wish list.

    The last science poll got us started on the path of Medicine (now studying) - Chemistry - Explsives (engineers!)

    We should also have Democracy available soon -- HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

    Our WoW poll shows we should also be working toward Darwin's Voyage. For that, we need a lot... Astronomy - Navigation (caravel, Magellan's) - Physics - Steam Engine (ironclad) - plus Bridge Building, all before we hit Railroad.

    VOTE FOR OUR NEXT TECH!!

    2 DAYS ONLY -- HYDEY NEEDS TO PLAY!!

      Democracy. It speeds up tech research, increases income and makes cities happier places.

                    Looks like it is going to be a very definate choice to go for Democracy, and I agree. We couldn't get into Republic early enough for it to help us a whole lot, though it did speed up our tech rate and improve our trade dramatically for a couple of sessions.

                    I'll leave it to our new President to decide when it is safe to move to Democracy after we "discover" it. He is experienced and he knows when the Oedo years occur.

                      Send email to Hydey stating the obvious -- posting here too.

                      The ppl want Democracy. Our other goals are engineers and Darwin's Voyage/RR. If democracy is not available, pick a tech that will help toward those goals -- Astronomy/Navigation/Checmistry.

                      Wishing Hydey great success in his 2nd presidential term...

                          i imagine we all would have heard an earful if he hadn't received the game yet

                            Get Democracy!
                            In the first 'Democracy' game, we never were a Democracy, going from Monarchy to Communism.

                            Let us get Democracy in order to exploit an unused government form-

                            FUNDAMENTALISM!



                            Let's help build all of our city improvements through tithes, by building the SoL and switching to Fundy.
                            I believe that this will increase our science dramactically, more than making up for the loss of science under Democracy.



                            Maybe our new Prez can check it out for us, see if it will really save us time.

                            Congrats Hydey!

                              Obiwan -- our society has decided to win this game by going to Alpha Centauri via representative govts. -- The republic and Democracy.

                              All other government forms are rejected.

                              Maybe we'll play for Fundy/Commie in Game 3...
