Is there any reason for Pella don't star it the first level of mines working, in the cite, after all much of the fortune of Filipe is because of the Macedonias mines.

Towards the end of the book, the Moties quote an old story from Herodotus:
"Once there was a thief who was to be executed. As he was taken away he made a bargain with the king: In one year he would teach the king's favorite horse to sing hymns."
"The other prisoners watched the thief singing to the horse and laughed. 'You will not succeed,' they told him. 'No one can.' To which the thief replied, 'I have a year, and who knows what will happen in that time. The king might die. The horse might die. I might die. And perhaps the horse will learn to sing.'"

@ Malik of Sindh:
thank you for translating this ... T.
@ Kepper:
The mine in Pella is (together with Dalminion) one of the best in the Area. I guess that's the reason why it's not build at the start. Getting the 1,800 mnai (IIRC) every turn from the start would make it too easy for the human player (either as Makedon or Epirote, to a lesser extend as KH) to dominate the Greek/Makedon/Thrakian region.

Re: Mine in Pella
If there were no mines in Pella working for about 50 years before Macedonian expansion into Asia - there would be no expansion at all..
So, from the historic side those mines should be working full - even Antigonos Gonatas counted on those mines badly.. And Demetrias and Monoftalm too and most of all Philip II.. If there weren't for those mines around Pella, Philip would have never prepared his army to reach Indus, even true, he would have no resources to make an army of his own.. and Alexander could just dream Babyllon
And still, those mines made his state and army!
So, yes.. I am sorry for the game balance... but there should be .. for sure .. just a small-tiny mine there.. I will make one there in my mod...

Re: Mine in Pella
But they have many starting forces and 1ª level of mines in Pella will give you a bust of 1800 mm is almost noting compare it a cost of having Elephant it Epirote and the big army just next to Athene's.
Sorry about my bad English.
