Actually, tech still is useful after 300, and even more so now, because of the infrastructure discount. Before, if you had all your NS in tech, the max discount would be: 2 * (tech) / (NS = 20*tech) = 10%. Now the max discount is 2* tech / (NS = 5*tech) = 40% ! Tech can give a huge discount on infrastructure upkeep if you have a lot!

The second. Nukes only destroy; money creates. Money also begets more money.

I laugh at your warmongering. Rate of income best measures strength; war only lessens it for all involved.

I disagree with your statement. Nuclear scientists, computer engineers, and research microbiologists wouldn't be able to do anything in regards to their capacity if thrown into the wilderness without tools, fuel, and collected data destroyed by a nuke.

How would that work? In the explosion, labs are blown all the way back to your nation?

Who cares about what the NS value/drop is? It's just a unit. What is more important is at what percentile range you land in. That, and only that.
