I think you posted that in the wrong thread, mate.
Is it a buff for coastal? probably not. Most coastal cities have CHs in them because of the harbor triangle. If CH<->Harbor was mutually exclusive like water parks and ECs, then maybe it would be getting somewhere.
Although actually, virtually all cities end up with a CH just because of how vital trade routes are. I just Don't grasp the motivation for removing one gold from just the market.
I cross posted it because it was relevant to the discussion around Coastals.
I do think it buffs Coastals v Land Cities.
Generally, if you're building a harbours, you want to build them in Coastal Cities to maximise Harbour adjacecy and to allow for CC+H+? Triangles.
If you're inland, you're generally only building CHs. So, a nerf to markets is a slight Nerf to inland cities relative to Coastal Cities.
Reducing available sources of Gold also buffs Coastal Cities, because it makes them more important to you gold economy.
Still. Not a big change.
Huh, I cannot believe I never noticed. Given I've built however many thousands of markets since then. Doesn't help that the wiki etc has never updated it but has updated most other pages.
Too much time time in the hansa, not enough time in the hub I suppose...
Yeah. Can't believe I missed this too.
