I'll condense both halves of this analysis into one thread, as I suspect the worst technology won't be hard to figure out. What this topic is about is finding the most cost-efficient technology in the game, and conversely the least useful technology for its cost. This covers all researchable items except technology cards (e.g. Advanced Arsenal) and age-ups (because it's rather hard to argue against them). Following the pattern from my other threads, if you want to advocate a particular technology post with reasons and if they're good enough I'll list that technology. Also, I'll subdivide the "best" sticker into four categories: best unique church technology, best minor native technology, best military technology and best economic technology. Here are the best and the worst technologies in the entire game:
Best unique church technology - Petrine Reforms
Best minor native technology - Incan Road-building
Best military technology - Elite Coyote Runner
Best economic technology - Hunting dogs
Worst technology - Wild West
If anyone has a better technology to advocate or a technology even more useless than Wild West please post here.
Giskard: BrianManahan = Tsar_Ivan_VII? Discuss.
Giskard: BrianManahan = Tsar_Ivan_VII. It's no longer a question.
Giskard: Isn't BrianManahan liable to be banned anyway for being the smurf of a banned forumer (Tsar_Ivan_VII)?
BrianManahan: I'm not sure who that is, Giskard, but I see what you is trying to do. I don't smurf >:O
