Hmmm. So, b/c it is a smaller town/city, it does not have to pay as much into the "pot" - so to speak - as the Huge cities and Large cities. Hmm. You learn something everyday.

Might I say, Sir Edward, that I am duly impressed that you completed Baktria campaign. Kudos to you, Sir.

Most money one of my cities have ever made? Dalminion in my Romani campaign, made over 14000 a turn. About 6000 from trade, 6000 from mining and the rest from taxes and farming. Great city that, basically payed for my entire war against the Getians all by itself.

2p to the main topic. For me personally that disgusting richness which nearly always appears on some stage of campaign is the biggest factor that killls any challenge .

I wonder, why don't additionally simulate all these (mainly domestic) negative factors which harm treasury such as corruption, greediness of family members, foreign or brigand troops pillaging on your territory.

This "useful pandora's box" could be started by script when your income or amount of mnai in treasury (also in conjunction with number of cities) reaches specific values.
