It an even up 7 for 7 trade.

Alpha=5
Pottery=2

WC=3
Myst=4

But with their JW's they have they will outdistance us in finding the other Civs. We should ask for a "no-trade" clause for 20 turns.

No trade with the other civs you mean?

I would go for longer than 20 turns. It may take us that long to find anyone else. On the other hand, if we get lucky and find another civ first it will prevent us from trading those techs. Hmm, choices, choices...

Go for it before they get our techs from someone else.

That's just it Harry. MAST has a better chance than we do of finding other Civ's before we do, so a No-Trade Clause would favor us at this point strictly looking at the odds of our two teams finding others. Of course we may get lucky, but I'd rather not count on that.

Do the trade. I don't believe we need to do a no-trade at this point. It's very unfriendly of us and limits our trade options when we finally meet someone else.
