in GnK early game (pre trading posts tech/turn 100) we could have 5 river tiles worked per city, and could have up to 4 cities, so this worked out to be about 20 gpt just from river gold.
now in BnW an early trade route only yields about 5-6 gold, so we need 4 on international trade to have the same amount of gpt as before, yet by this time we only have 3 trade routes available!
now trade routes is more interesting than a simple gold on water tiles, so i want to simulate the early gold without modding river gold back. so what would you guys think on it, without giving too much gold in late game?
I would say either mod trade posts back to trapping, or earlier trade route limit increase (up to 5 before medieval) and cheaper caravan. have anyone tested this? any other suggestions?
