Concept: Date-Gold Parellelism

[boRGa]

Theory:

* It would be best to manipulate your treasury with respect to the current date in years.

Principle:

1) In the beginning of the game, first, try to collect as much gold as you can.
2) Then after a while (probably near 2000 B.C) start to spend your money as fast and as efficient as you can until the birth of Christ.
3) Later, as the years count on, begin to collect money again and try to balance it as the exact date you are on. (e.g. in 1250, try to got 1250 gold in treasury, etc...)

Recommendation:

* Do not just spend it inefficiently or collect it unconsciously: Be logical and practice the system.

Why ?

 

[boRGa]

...Analysing from my experiences, I realized that, in time, you will need some gold to manipulate your production, buying technologies from other states, etc. And for the periods of time, precisely, it would be approximately equal to the current date. So we can say that the optimum amount of your treasury -as a reference- could be calculated with respect to the date...

A better tip. Don't spend your money when you are at 2000 BC.

Continue as you did before. (Get more, more and more cash.)

If you are in 1250 AD, it is better to have 2000 GP instead of 1250.

I don't see the meaning of your strategy.
