Great info on this thread.

I have another question, for those of you who have finished a GC:

Do you destroy all your schools/universities once you've finished the tech tree? Other than producing research and clamor for reform, none of the educational buildings provide any benefit right?

Or does anything spiffy happen at the top of the tech tree (ala Civ IV, where you'd just continually research "Future Techs" which actually could be beneficial.)

Same question with gentlemen, where should they go once the tech tree is finished? I guess, just send them out to enemy schools to destroy other gentlemen, or is there another use for them?
