Here are my opinions. Trade should definitely produce more money than
taxation. It's just the way the world works.
Taxes (in Olympia) are built on civ levels. I wish trade in Olympia could
be affected more by civ levels. Selling goods in a civ-6 city should bring
more than selling in a civ 1 city. But that's a minor point, and maybe too
much of a change for this game.
Yes, I do think that an army of 10,000 can be supported indefinitely, but I
won't tell you my plan until they show up at you castle.
Trade probably makes too much of a return for the amount invested, but I'm
not totally convinced that it will be the unbalance that destroys the game.
I don't expect Rich to get the Olympian economy in perfect equilibrium.
If he could, I'd call him Alan Greenspan.
I would still like to know what he thinks about the "move order" change?
