How to research Galactic Achievements, Trade Goods and Super projects

list of techs needed?

from GalCiv2 Forums
It's frustrating finding what technologies are needed to research a specific trade good or Achievement. I've seen lots of other people complaining about this on the forums as well. Is there already a list out there that someone has compiled that tells you what to research to reach a certain objective? If not, how about we start posting them here? I've only been playing for a little while, but I'd appreciate it if others would post what they've found. I'll post whatever I find as well.

I imagine posting them would be the fastest way.. for the most part.. (and i'm at work, dont have the list here).. when I come accross a technology that has in it which item will achieve a certain goal that I *really* find useful.. I just write it down.

of course.. then that ends up being a template for how I play every game.. which i sless fun

Lately i've noticed the two problems others have complained about.

If I get a class 19 planet, with two bonus manufacturing tiles (last time, a 700% and a 300%).. on the SAME planet.. that one planet can easily win me the game.. Doesn't even matter what the AI is trying to do.

And as well.. if I get a ranger and some corvettes.. that is the end of the game as well.. their military is dead, ASAP

The downside of the huge manufacturing-bonus planets is the gobs of money it costs to fund them. They're still powerful, but I like having them around.

Thanks for the info CN! Any source of info on trade goods as well?

I got a good laugh at the manual in that respect. It lists the trade goods and what they do, and the achievements and what they do, in the section titled "the details", which starts out "still not satisified? Fine, this section is for you"... And all the tech requirements are missing.

You read the manual?
