Turn 194 (780 AD):
- I discover Industrialization and started Medicine (in 4 at 50% science
).
- I have the coal hooked up
- I finished Copernicus and switched ToG to Universal Suffrage (ToE pre-build)
I will have Scientific Method in 13 or 14 turns (910/ 920 AD) and probably choose Replaceable Parts and Atomic Theory as free techs. Before 1000 AD I will probably be 5 or 6 techs ahead of Wildfire! He still didn't reach the IA.
I'm seriously thinking about offering Wildfire two techs (Nationalism/Steam Power and Industrialization) in return for a non-agression pact (we can be at war, but no fighting allowed) until 1500 AD. War is not in my interest until I'm fully railed and I have tanks. I want to win this by Culture or Space Race without a single fight from now on. But I doubt that Wildfire agrees with a non agression pact.
