Isn't it funny how people trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell?
but thats cuz u have like no military, tiny navy, and happen to have good order i suppose. also, your prestige is "weak" i see, so you still failed

yeah...i ust realized that in UP...i now am paying out 20k a turn for military....and am only making about 5k a turn now...plus carribean just revolted...
oh that reminds me: theres a great story i have for you guys:
so i just receved a french island in the carribean, i belive the windward islands or something like that. well, i had 2 units of colonial dragons there, and there was a revolt. out of nowhere 5 or 6 units of buccaneers attacked me. i thought i had a good defence, but 1 unit of dragoons was wiped out in a single charge and my other one lost 30 men. i then remounted them and rode them behind fences to fire a volley every minute, which did almost nothing. then i tried waiting for single units to climb over fences and charging them. this ended up losing me about 12 men, and killing over 300. needless to say i routed them and stared fo a few minutes in disbeleif at my computer.

As UP, I was making ~ 20K/turn around the 1710s, and am now doing ~ 60K/turn in the early 1730s. I would have brought in another 10-20K, if I hadn't decided to build the Grand European Empire of Holland, requiring two full new stacks to be recruited, maintained & reinforced. My taxes & "other" income cover my upkeep with a couple hundred coins to spare. The profit is all from trade.
It is very easy to make lots of money with GB & UP. Along with France, you're in an excellent position to claim trade spots as fast as possible.
