Each Laboratory works on one square for each active [[research]] project at the same time.

The time it takes for a laboratory to complete its research is fixed, and the laboratories can each get interrupted by problems for specific technologies, interrupting their progress and stalling the research progress.

Once a problem occurs, it is up to the population of Egypt, ''independently of their House'', to fix the problem by donating resources to that specific laboratory, as the Research Square for that technology will be stuck until it is fixed.

'''Every research project championed increases the number of Research Squares needed to finish the next one''', and thus the number of total laboratories needed in order to research all squares in parallel.

'''Only one laboratory can be in construction at a time.'''

 '''Only one laboratory per House can be in construction at a time.'''
-Since we are not going to have research take four times longer than normal any labs that are not fully assisted are counterproductive as they would only slow research down and increase the costs of additional labs that must be built. As such they should only be built in areas where large numbers of people will be able to assist them like major House chariot stops.

 House elders can set various permissions such as the rank required to construct or upgrade a lab at their Great Hall.

-Cost for the next lab depends on which House is making it.  As more labs are made the cost of previous ingredients is increased and new ingredients are gradually added. The set of possible ingredients is determined by the tech level so far and normally they will be possible. There is some threshold of where it will intentionally pick items we cannot yet create.
