When a lab requirements change, navigate to a specific [[Laboratory]] page and edit the requirements there.

== Overview ==

Research is a decentralized process.  Each house completes basic resource requirements at Universities to Champion a [[Technology]].  Each house may only Champion one [[Technology]] at a time.  This is not a competition;  once a technology is Championed, it will become open to all of Egypt once completed.

Once a [[Technology]] is Championed, work begins at [[Laboratory|Laboratories]] built by players all across Egypt.  Each [[Laboratory]] works independently on all of the currently Championed Technologies.

Each [[Technology]] will have an amount of time necessary for a [[Laboratory]] to finish the Research, and a specific number of [[Laboratory|Laboratories]]required to complete the Research and unlock the [[Technology]].  This number of [[Laboratory|Laboratories]] scales with the number of researches completed. The only currently known way to reduce the cost is to hand [[Scroll of Wisdom|Scrolls of Wisdom]] into a [[University of Progress]].

The In Game Calendar will show the number of [[Laboratory|Laboratories]] which are necessary, as well as the number which have already finished their research.

All [[Laboratory|Laboratories]] across Egypt contribute to all Technologies, regardless of House which Championed the Technology.  Once the required number of [[Laboratory|Laboratories]] completes the research, the tech is unlocked, and all work on excess [[Laboratory|Laboratories]] is wasted. At any time, a [[Laboratory]] may become "Blocked", and the [[Laboratory]] will request additional resources to be added to this [[Laboratory]] for it to continue it's research.  This [[Laboratory]] timer is paused, but does not have any affect on other [[Laboratory|Laboratories]].
