Seems like a good candidate for a server setting, 'techrelrate'.
But how does it work in Civ II, is the speed proportional to the # of techs
you are ahead, or to the % of techs you are ahead? Suppose A has 1 tech,
B has 2, and C 3; what happens when B discovers a tech, will A's
speed to the next tech be affected, or only B's and C's?
