Hello,
One problem I am having (yes, newbie) is once I get going (about 10 cities, good number of military units, workers, etc) I cant figure out how to get enough gold to keep my Science slider up over 40% or so.
I seem to be pulling in alot of gold, but my expenses are always too high. Growing +13 becomes Shrinking -16 or something with one 10% boost to science.
What are the tricks to getting enough gold to keep Science at 80-100% percent once the game really gets going? I trade luxuries whenever I can, I try to make a few scientists/tax collectors when I can in large cities, and I dont think Im building too many military units, but maybe I am. I usually have about 3 garrison units and 3-5 offensive units in my cities.
What am i doing wrong and why cant I get enough gold to keep growing along with Science up high?
thanks
