I Auto-tax from day one, really no need to do that yourself unless you believe that loyalty and land enheritage from foreign princesses is related in any kind (Yeah, right
).
Once my empire is secured (usually past turn 40-50) I turn on auto-title. When I "obtain" a province, or construct a building with a command or acumen bonus, I manually assign that specific title. Titles are only assigned after the end of turn.
I never, ever, auto-build. Not units, not buildings. Why do you want to do that? Though I sometimes praise the AI, it never knows MY plan.
What I would like to have on auto, and sourly misses, is the option to auto-move new units to a designated province, say for example all camels trained in Egypt shows up in Morocco after 1-2 turns.
"Show moves" I always use. If I get bored I can always press "spacebar", whereas sometimes you want to know what's going on.
I also usually have untidy units, you know what I mean
. I especially hate it when it auto-merges two siege crews and scrap one perfectly working cannon. When I have absolutely no siege engines, then the option is on. I find it too work-like to manually merge elite units to assemble one or two really nice regiments. Murphys law ensures that unit is the target of mayheim in the next battle anyways.
