What should we research after nuclear power?


choose two options

We need plastics to get SS component
We need plastics and The Laser so we can research superconductor which we need to build SS modules.

Or should we research environmentalism or recycling to help keep pollution in check.

I support plastics and then The Laser

Plastics - Laser - Superconductor - Fusion Power.

Stay the course, do not waver to the right (Robotics) or the left, (environmentalism).

The laser sounds good at first, better to have the tech in case one of our rivals starts manhattan.

The Laser --> SDI gives a safe warm feeling ...then up to SS-components

so which one first? laser or plastics? we don't really need to plastics yet since we haven't built any structuals yet, I think. but maybe the city planner will want to start building the components right away.

Well since we wanted SS victory, we should ensure we can do that before we try anything else.

Only makes sense.

Regarding risk of an enemy getting Manhattan:

Techs needed by ai.

Mass Production,
Nuclear Fission

Flight,
Machine Tools,
Radio,
Advanced Flight,
Miniturisation,
Computers,
Rocketry.

That's 9 techs before the AI gets nukes.

We need 4.
Plastics - Laser - Superconductor - Fusion Power.

We ought to be able to get 4 techs before the computer gets 4.

After we launch, then we can build SDI's.
If we launch the big spaceship, that gives the AI
5 turns to get Rocketry.

I think we can hold off on the SDI's for now.

well, laser is required on our path to a SS, but obiwan does have a point, the AI isn't exactly close to being able to build manhattan's

Suffering from ads?

Well, they could just *steal* it from us when we get it. Though they haven't shown much inclination to steal techs this game.
