[Pontifex Rex]

Pontifex Rex, great write-ups! I notice you allow the AI to run your non-governed cities. How do you find that works?...

Thanks very much.

It works quite well, actually, I 'guide' the cities by clicking off the AI and directing production when necesaary but otherwise set the slider to 'save' rather than 'spend'. Sometimes I'll 'uncheck' both AI production boxes and run the city w/o a governor. This allows for more fiscal planning and less silly purchases. I use governors when and if the strategic situation allows for them.

The plan for using mercenaries has worked quite well thus far but is very expensive. It will be a long time before I will be able to break 25,000 denari.

Cheers.
