Why we should trade Warrior Code ASAP.

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

After thinking about for a bit I have come to realize that sitting on Warrior Code is a definite mistake. Hoping to contact the civ Neu Demo has contacted is extremely risky but once done we should immeditately trade Warior Code to both. Here's why:

In the later game when the world has been explored hoarding a tech is strategically viable. Now it isn't. Neu Demo has Scouts (I would say at least three) and is bound to be gobbling up goodie huts like no tomorrow. Those goodie huts will give techs. Warrior Code is one of the basic lowest level techs and a high probabilty to be recieved from a goodie hut.

If Neu Demo gets Warrior Code from a goodie hut we lose out on the possibility of getting anything in trade.

i agree. for right now, trade anything and everything we can. if we dont trade it, someone else will.

I agree, Ghengis.

I agree but for one thing. Wait just a couple of turns untill we come into contact with who ever ..... hmmm.... wait... maybe we should. We are playing on regent level which makes goodie huts more "friendly". I guess I don't know what action to take. They could get it from the huts, but then if we trade it to them early, them we miss out on trading it to the other team they know. I guess it would be up to the FMC to determine. Panzer! Work your magic!

Bad news, guys... I got contacted by ND, and they already have WC. How about doing the same thing with the wheel, when we discover it?

See, we shouldn't save any techs for the next 30 turns or so. Immediately trade new ones to everyone we can, if they don't have a tech we need offer to give it to them now for the next tech they finish researching when its completed.

Yep .. I have been sold on this
Sell everything ASAP

Contact everyone, set some deals up in concrete, trade minimaps, then send our warriors in a beeline towards them to make the deal.

We should ask that the deal is set in concrete. Even if either of us gain the tech by some other means before we make contact...each civ is still obliged to gift the tech to each other.
