	Science Research Poll Increase the size of your Attachments

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.

rail road first so that we can make sure we get Darwin's

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."

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

Chemistry first to help us to Explosives, greatly increasing the speed of our terrain improvements. Each year lost to moving a settler is a year a road could be built!

Magnetism after that for the sake of our boats.

That's exactly how it happened, too. Well done, sir!!


How long did it take before "someone: noticed? And am I a genius of perception, or what!?!

Well, I noticed the "blink" before I read about it, but I couldn't be certain that it hadn't *always* been blinking, so I just admired it silently.

Has anyone noticed that my "cavebear head" very ocassionally moves up and down?

I agree w/ Hydey- we need Magnetism for upgrading
Caravels to Galleons that do not cause discontent under Democracy.

Newton's is better than Darwin's, especially under a
Democracy if we have a fairly large and prosperous city
to place it in. Darwin's might save us 2000 beakers, while Newton's can get us 2000 beakers in 10-20 turns.

IMHO
First: Physics- Magnetism
Next: Chemistry- Theory of Gravity- Explosives
End: Bridge Building - Steam Engine - RailRoad

Mr. President, the pple have spoken.

1. Physics is next.
2. After that, we choose between Steam Engine (ironclads), Magnetism (frigate/galleon), and Bridge Building.
3. Once those are obtained, it's Railroad Time and Darwin's Voyage.

CITIZENS ALERT: Our next session will involve discussion of post-RR techs. We will need a clear path, since we will need at least one immediately after RR, then must be prepared to pick 2 more immediately after Darwin's is collected.

whats that, having trouble reading it, oh well I will just have to do my best

I think it says Magnetism first
