  • Science Research Poll

    The mighty Hydey has filled some of our more pressing needs, acquiring Medicine, Democracy, Astronomy, and Navigation in just 10 turns.

    We are currently researching Sanitation.
    What next? IT'S POLLING TIME!

    We want to get to Darwin's Voyage. That that we get -->>
    Physics--Steam Engine (Ironclads, Eiffel)--Railroad plus, somewhere along the way, Bridge Building

    We also want engineers, and for that we need Chemistry (now available), then Explosives.

    Metallurgy should be available soon (coastal fortress, cannon, cancel Great Wall). Theory of Gravity should also be available (Newton's College).

    Magnetism would be post-Physics, and would provide Galleons and Frigates. In the area of religion, Theology would be next (Bach's).

    We have Musketeers and Crooks, so our offensive and defensive needs are in good shape for the moment. (Feel free to disagree.) the next available upgrades would be Dragoons (Leadership) and Riflemen (Conscription).

    I'm limiting the discussion to known needs, since I'm at work and don't have my tech tree with me. so voice your opinions if I've skipped something you feel is important.

      I say go for explosives to get engineers first, then make our way towards railroad.

            IT'S ALIVE!!!!

            I can't help but wonder -- How many times have I seen ixnay's avatar before?

            I just now noticed it blinks!!
            (or is that a recent upgrade, ixnay?)

            btw, I now think it's WAAAYYY cooler than I used to.

              We need boats that do not cause unhappiness under democracy so we need to discover magnetism.

                I changed it to a blinking version a while ago. Congratulations! You're the first person to notice it and post about it. I did this so that people would scroll by and see it blink out of the corner of their eye. They would then think to themselves "Did that avatar blink or have I just been staring at this screen for too long."

                            I guess I could risk impeachment ,

                            lets not even think that.

                              Galleons seem like the next important thing to get, so I voted for Magnetism...
