Hi Julian,

Books are used for casting spells, and for creating a number of the more advanced military and diplomatic units.

They can also be used as a way of transferring or selling knowledge (Research Points) to other players & cities.

Hope that helps,

GM Stormcrow

You're missing the DM's cut.  Making sure conversion costs something you don't get back means there's a tradeoff, and you'll not convert back and forth "recklessly."  Having a tradeoff/conversion cost ensures decisions will be weighed more carefully.

I do not understand the purpose of Generating Books as they require 25 research points to make and when converted they generate only 20 research points. Would someone please tell me what I am missing. Thanks in advance
Julian
