Feb, 2313 – Hydroponics tech is done! Next is Computing Substrates since Cultural Influence isn’t an option for 5 months to improve Research

Kryseth building is done, next is 25 month project galactic project Office of Control for gaining me a bunch of control and then

Jun – I build a Comm Starbase near my mine next to Torians

I swap my Civ to trade Food into Free Trade that drops production to -.05 but +10% cash and +33% trade

July – Computing Substrates are done, next is Energy Shield Deflection for 4 months

Our Flag ship finds an advanced Kinetic Weapon we store

Oct – Tech done, next is Precursor Archology for 6 months to help that research

I offer three techs to the Terrans for a Cultural Alliance and then a tech called Starship Refits to repair our stuff

Feb, 2314 – We get a talk from the Terrans who want us to take their tech that gives us +1 move. I do so

Mar - New tech done! Next is Terraforming for 4 turns.

I can choose a new Culture:

Self-Reliance and Property Rights like normal and

Competitiveness – All cits with this trait (18%) make 1 wealth

Self-Governance – On core worlds we get +8 approval and a free leader.

I am making 47/month. If I grab Competitiveness I would just make 50. I grab Self-Governance to unlock the top choice next

May - I trade two techs with the Terrans for their Spying and Energy Weapon Use

Aug - I accept a trade offer from the Altarians for their tech Planetary Mobilization

Sept – I order a Comm Starbase on the Altarian border

Oct – We develop Terraforming! Next is AI Intelligence for research
