One of the things I've sort of struggled with is the right time to build roads.
Obviously connecting to your capital is important, but around what turn (Standard) would you start?
I mainly ask because I'm currently in a game where I hooked up 3 of my 4 cities, but while waiting for the trade route to connect I was in the negatives for gold. Seems like they cost a lot.
The road to one of my cities is 8 gpt, while I only get 7 gpt back for the connection. Obviously worth it for the movement speed in the end, but it usually hurts my economy in the short run.
