Researching

In the Academy you research can new things such as technologies or new units for your city. These reserches and subsequent discoveries only apply to the city that made them. Everything must be researched individually in every city and mwnaing it is very possible to have different research strategies in almost every city you have.

Research Points

Research points are a form of expendable resources. The more you expand the academy the higher the number of research points you have available. There is an upper limit of 160 per city. However you can receive 12 further research points through the building of the Library on a city. You should spend these wisely as it is impossible to research everything within a single city.

In the academy you can check under research points how many research points are available and what discoveries you have made so far.

A technology investigate

The requirements that need to be met in order to investigate a technology, are:

• 'The level of the academy' - in the Academy you can check which academy level is required for this research.

• 'Sufficient research points' - if you hold the mouse over a particular research, it is indicated how many research points are required for this. In the investigation, these are drawn-off then!

• 'Sufficiently raw materials' - the necessary raw materials can be read also in the tool hint.

• 'free places in the research building bow'

If all Prerequisites are fulfilled, you can give a research in order in that you click on it. Then the research points and raw materials are drawn-off and is set it into the research building bow.

All orders in this bow worked off one after another.

Above the table, such a pointer is to be found:

This indicates the current step of the academy. So can be read, which technologies can be investigated. In this case, all researches that stand in the first two columns could be given, in order. States of the pointer in the third column, would be the first 3 columns available, and so further.

A technology put back

It is to be put back also possible a Technolgie for a culture point. One can acquire culture points in the Agora!
