    Science
    • Books of science removed.
    • Can no longer buy science or invest in it.
    • Each province will begin with Scientists, who can be assigned to a science category.
    • Assigning a Scientist to a category grants the relevant science effect, such as + population, or + food.
    • The level of effects will be capped.
    • Additional scientists will be granted throughout the age.
    • Scientists will skill up over time in their respective category.
    • Reassigning a Scientist drops them back to Novice level and incurs a cool-down.
    • Learns renamed to Abduct and now capture Scientists.
    • Amnesia now winds back scientists' experience.
    • Laboratories help generate more Scientists.
    • Universities will provide refuge for Scientists.
