Grand Strategy
Ok, it's becoming very clear that we have no clear strategy. Are we going to maximize tax or maximize science?

Maximize science through engineers and tactics (perhaps continuing to armor), the set science to zero and kick tail.

(On this all-land map, we might want to consider the benefits of flight as well IMHO.)

I think we need to maximize science. We have *got* to get a better form of government!

Science.

We have to get Engineers to properly develop our vast terrain, and to deliver crusaders to the heathen lands.

Science... for a time. Until we have Fundy, Explosives and mayhaps RR. Then Tactics if the AI we are facing is putting up a fight.

Well, that settled that. I will make my recommendations (with some tweaking) to the President sometime today.
