Napoleon: Total War (Not an Expansion for Empire)

[Ed Anger]

Huh? Dont think that happened since MTW1. And that was scripted into the game.

Well it sure happened in Rome: Total War.

Ah yes, the sewer/filth riots.

[DGuller]

It didn't happen to me either.  Valmy, how do you set your taxes?

The lowest I can usually.  Heck I do everything I can.  The cities grow and they revolt.  Meh.

That never happens to me in M2TW.  I go Reagan on them and keep the taxes at the lowest setting all the time, and that keeps them very happy.

I have poor memory it seems. In Vanilla RTW that did indeed happen. I´ve been playing with mods for too long it seems. You had to remove your garrison and then slaughter the entire population in some cities because they werent controllable with any reasonable effort. EB largely removes this problem I´ve noticed. Anyho MTW2 this problem was gone IIRC.

You seem to be the one with the poor memory.  You can't even remember which game I talked about in the post you quoted.

I dont know if I should do a /huh? or /facepalm at your post. Cant you read?

Evidently not. 

[The Minsky Moment]

Wow.  Finally a Napoleon game that freaking starts in 1796.  Is that really too much to ask?  Why do they always have to start in 1805?  Rivoli and Marengo not good enough for anybody?

Crown of Glory:EE starts in 1792.

but is it any good?

[Valmy]

All I had to see was the word 'Matrix'.

Huh.  I tend to go Roosevelt and raise taxes and build public works and a military.  Different ideologies I suppose.

I have enough money.  Lower taxes actually raise revenues by stimulating the growth of settlements.

A supply-sider, I see.

I'm not ideological.  I can come up with many different reasons to keep the taxes at their lowest in any situation.

Didn't the low taxes turn your generals/family members into no-good demoralized losers? Or was it only in Rome?

It does just the opposite, at least in Stainless Steel.  Low taxes add chivalry points to your generals, which moralizes the troops, and adds to city population growth (I guess chicks really dig the chivalrous guys).

How strange, considering that taxes are the most just and righteous invention created by man.
