If so, then doesn't Thor for example, have the best econ of all the civs if you go heoric with SKADI?
I used to think Ra had the best economy but I'm starting to realize that, well Ra can't have the best econ.
Thor - Dwarves are cheaper and gather gold faster
Thor&ODIN - Skadi's Winter Harvest
When I compare Bast's econ techs, Sacred cats and Aze of Wepwawet 3% farming faster and 3% lumber increase, to Skadi's 20% farming increase, I have to stop and scratch my head. To start off, egypt's villagers gather 10% slower. Empowerment can make up for this, but I can't see it making up for a 20% farming increase.
Looks to me, like my whole thinking about this game might need to be re-adjusted. I thought as ISIS or Ra in particular I would have the best end-game, (if I could survive to see it)
But clearly I must be mistaken? Thor has better armoury techs, and I can't see how Thor's econ could be worse then Ra's given this huge farming bonus. Of course, this all hinges on the whole 20% farming increase.... is this really a 20% boost?
The 20% comes from a previous post I think called Loki Gayness. I think Death&Pain mentioned the winter harvest upgrade.
I think most farm upgrades are like 10% no? So, why is it, that the most aggressive race, Norse, also has the best end game? (Am I wrong here?)
