Re: Early game research targets
As always, it depends on the nation you are playing and how you are playing it.
IF I have mages who will be in battle then Evocation 2 (for attacks) followed by Alteration 1 (for defense).
If my mages will mostly stay home and research/construct then I go for Thaumaturgy 2 (for searching) and Construct 4 (for magic-boosting items) then I shift to Conjuration for awhile to get summonings. Remember that search for Death sites and search for Water sites is in Conjuration 2 so if those are important to you then you might want to go there before Thaumaturgy.
Of course being high in Blood magic means I need to get Blood research in fairly quick. And being high in Death means Enchantment needs to be soon. Also Enchantment has some nice special use spells for any magic path which might make it a higher priority.
