I've posted this on a couple of other boards, both inferior to this one:
I'm about to begin a Byzantine campaign in the Early period with the sole intent of maxing out my cash. My game plan is to eliminate the Turks, and take everything from Egypt except Sinai and Arabia. I'll have rich farmland and trading provinces; boats will rapidly be built and sent across the world. I'll then sit back and let the money flow in while maintaining modest garrisons, including a bottleneck force in Georgia so that the Horde must go around the Black Sea (usually causing them to splinter).
Sound good? This is essentially my practice for making money with other factions and periods later on. I'm wondering if something can be done to enhance or correct my plan.
Oh yeah - I'll try and keep Naples (I managed to do it last game). Is it worth it to extend ships all the way to Britain?
