Economic Help

Also, money is "spent" when you add troops or buildings to the build queues. If you have several cities working through long build lists, the money for those items is not available, even though they are not currently being worked on. When money is tight, only put one thing on the queue. It's a pain to manage, but you have more options turn by turn.

Thanks for the advice, I knew that money is spent when troops or buildings are added to queues, and I check each town's stats at least once per two turns, I keep large armies in cities, for this paranoid fear of attack I got from those Greeks, so I keep large armies in just about every town. I'll have to start moving troops to front lines and train peasants soon. Thanks for that.
