Overview
After a match, review the recorded results and player statistics to compare economic development, military activity, technology progress, and score. Use the summary to identify decisions that shaped the outcome.
How this system affects decisions
Treat research as a sequence of choices: check its building, Age, prerequisite, cost, and the units or economy affected. An upgrade is most valuable when it arrives before the army needs it and improves enough of the units already in production; researching every available technology is rarely the best use of a limited stockpile.
How to use this reference

Use the summary to identify decisions that shaped the outcome. The mechanic affects the pace at which resources can be gathered, exchanged, or spent. Compare its immediate cost with the production or research it delays, especially before an Age advance.
