Science 1859
As we move closer to our goal of space flight, the options get easier to follow. Last session we discovered Machine Tools & Espionage, & began work on Miniaturization. Here's the choices for what we can work on afterwards:

Fundamentalism
Genetic Engineering
Guerilla Warfare
Automobile
Radio
Refrigeration
Amphibious Warfare

The paths we need to follow for Space Flight:

Radio -> Adv. Flight -> Rocketry
Automobile -> Mass Production -> Computers
Computers + Rocketry -> Space Flight

if we're going to have to escort our transports now, might as well have battleships available. Also, we would then also be able to build superhighways for key cities. as all of our diplomats have now been upgraded to spies, and it appears the enemy is using the more advanced units as well now, Leo's will have run its course.

Automobile also increases trade bonuses with superhighways.

Also on path to Computers.

For long term, I vote:

Automobile - Mass Production - Computers.

Keep up the good work, Ixnay.

Since we need both auto and radio anyway, auto seems to give immediate benefits.

John, it's wasting our time researching crap like CfC that's keeping us from the stars!

Let's stay on course, people!

Auto to build Superhighways... adding more cash and beakers!

And battleships are handy to have around as well

I'd think it looks fairly clear, at least initally - atm over 80% think the first step is to convert Kazam, then evaluate after that. And i'd venture the closeness of the 2 variations of that can be attributed to lack of initial explicit differences.
