  • Poll technology 1610AD

    With the imminent completion of research of Liberalism, we need to pick 2 techs next, one as the free tech with Liberalism, one to research after that.

    So this is a multiple choice poll. I ask that you only vote for 2 items. Techs identified as 2nd tier cannot be the free tech. They need a prerequisite that could be the free tech from Liberalism, i.e. Gunpowder (free) Chemistry (next to research.)

    This poll will last 3 days or until I post recommendations for next turn chat.
    43
    Banking (3 turns/ 1690 beakers)
    16.28%
    7
    Chemistry (8 turns/ 5796 beakers/ 2nd tier)
    4.65%
    2
    Constitution (9 turns/ 4830 beakers/ 2nd tier)
    0.00%
    0
    Economics (5 turns/ 3381 beakers/ 2nd tier)
    2.33%
    1
    Gunpowder (4 turns/ 2898 beakers)
    9.30%
    4
    Music (2 turns/ 1449 beakers)
    9.30%
    4
    Nationalism (6 turns/ 4347 beakers)
    23.26%
    10
    Printing Press (6 turns/ 3864 beakers)
    27.91%
    12
    Replaceable Parts (8 turns/4347 beakers/ 2nd tier)
    4.65%
    2
    Scientific Method (9turns/ 5796 beakers/ 2nd tier)
    2.33%
    1

    The most expensive tech we can get from Liberalism is Nationalism so I advocate and voted that as the free tech. Then Printing Press for the Commerce as the next to be researched..

      Sorry, but I did not understand the poll mechanism, so I shall vote

      just for one tech, the Free one.

      I want Printing Press as free tech, and then to research Banking

      (and never Banking for free and research PP).

      The reason I want PP for free tech: give +1C for villages and towns,

      is on the way to Replaceable Parts and is the 2nd most expensive

      (I do not choose the most expensive - Nationalism - because less

      urgent and decisively our GArtist can lightbulb it after Music is

      researched).

      Then, to research Banking because is cheap, enables banks and

      open Replaceable Parts (and Economics,too).

      Best regards,

        What would the artist lightbulb after Nationalism + how much would the lightbulb be worth? Would the GArtist get more or less on a later tech?

        As it is we have to research Music to allow the GArtist access to Nationalism but the tech is comfortably the most expensive there and we will not lose this much if we simply delay Printing Press by 9 turns - ie if we take Nationalism from Liberalism and research Banking before PPress.

        There is of course the possibility of using the GA as 50% of another type of GA. We are now of the size at which a Golden Age could be the best option for us although our economic development may not yet be advanced enough to leverage sufficiently off the extra tile values to give us such

          The lightbulb after Nationalism is precisely Printing Press.

          But, there is a diference: as Music must always be researched first,

          Printing Press, Banking and Replaceable Parts would be delayed;

          any of these delays cost us something, while some delay on Music,

          Nationalism and even Military Tradition costs nothing.

          Best regards,

            But does the GArtist research the whole tech or just a fixed beaker amount. By taking Nationalism we gain a straight 500 beakers and I can't see there being a great delay in PPress because we can fully research Music and then use the GArtist - unless the GA gives more beakers for Music that it does for PPress

                Voting for Nationalism as the free tech (most expensive 1st tier tech) and Banking as the one to reserach.

                  The poll should have, at most, 34 votes: (17 voters x 2 votes each=

                  34) ; as a matter of fact, just 33, since I only vote once.

                  But, it has 43 votes (10 surplus votes at least).

                      Can a mod wipe out the votes of those who overvoted?

                        It is somewhat moot at this point. President Nugog went with Printing Press then Banking.

                          I doubt it but suspect they may be able to move the names of the techs about a bit so that the scores suit their preferences.
