Interesting to see the impact of quantum datahubs, it's not been in the game before I don't think. Going to change the strategy pick dynamic I think once people figure it out.

[Morgoth]

It's source of worry for sure.

[Imperial Historian]

Morgoth you are up. And I think Nom might want zohbat back blend that's a mighty fleet he's building.

[Morgoth]

Does the racial techs count towards the tech colour public objectives?

I don't think so.

I will be very clear which Strategy I want each round, ideally well before the selection procedure starts, so that those picking before me have ample time to decide to pass it on - or not.

They do

I'd say that they do - don't regular racial technologies also count for tech prerequisites?

On top of that, races like Sol (with 2 racial upgrades) would have a really impossible time fulfilling upgrade tech related objectives if their racials don't count.

Yes, but the one up at the moment is a unit upgrade tech PO, not colour-related. But if you were just asking generally, yes they do.

How do you know what a racial tech upgrade colour is though? I assume mine are blue and green?

It’s what colour they give you. Yours are both unit upgrades though, so don’t count towards colour objectives I believe.

Edit: So for example Tapper’s Quantum Datahub counts as one yellow prerequisite.

I will resolve the PDS fire and combat when I get home in about an hour or so.

Tapper says this, so should the Carrier 2 give me blue pre-requisite or not?

edit, and it does not count towards colour related tech objectives?

No it does not, it is a unit upgrade and you cannot use it as a prerequisite for ‘regular’ tech. Just like you can’t use any normal unit upgrade, which are effectively colourless.

I thought so, just checking.

[Galactic Council]

While Sol may seem cheated by this, you do on the other hand have an advantage in the PO which is currently on the board, as you are very incentivised to upgrade your special units.

[Morgoth]

not to mention that their special units are awesome.

[Imperial Historian]

And blue/green is clearly the best tech path

I do say "upgrade tech related objectives" - as in "Develop Weaponry -- 1VP -- Status Phase -- Own 2 unit upgrade technologies." Your racial tech upgrades (Infantry and Carrier) count towards fulfilling that.
They do not count as green and blue tech prerequisites: I never meant to state that they did, I only said that (let's say) Production Biomes counts as a Green tech for prerequisites.

Gnaw, what tech are you assimilating?
