Where is the game going?

That's a very good point Didz & anweRU... It goes a long way to explain why "naval powers" (France, GB, Spain, UP, Portugal) never live up to the moniker and are in practice a bit limp.

From my point of view I've been very disappointed with the last patch and the changes it made to the economy. My main gripe initially was with all the campaign killing CTD's (which were largely fixed with the last patch, the naval movement one being the only remaining one I still consistently come across) but the actual gameplay wasn't that bad. Ok, the economy did need to be toned down slightly, but it has gone far too in the opposite direction with this patch, to the point where I'm clicking end turn a few times just to get the money to build something...and that just isn't fun.

I'm confident the AI improvements will come but the way the economic aspect of the game has changed is very clearly a design decision, rather than due to any bugs or AI programming, and I'm hoping it will get reversed or I may just have to give up on the game, which would be a shame really.

What Boohugh, the pretty new units aren't enough for you? Shocking. And how ungrateful of you.
