As of right now i have aluminum, cattle, coal, fish, iron, lumber, marble, oil, rubber, sugar, water, wheat wheat and lumber are mine.. those come with.. steal, automobiles, beer,construction and asphalt.. i was wondering if i should get rid of OIL, and rubber.. and get SPICES AND PIGS.. getting rid of oil and rubber, will get rid of automobiles and asphalt and give me fast foods as well as the resources benefits themselves. i like asphalt and the 5 bonus resources because.. Current Infrastructure: 14,100.00 Daily Infrastructure Cost to Maintain: $807.76 Infrastructure Costs Per Level: $335,559.38 can someone tell me if i should do the switch.. or if i should change ALL my resources in total and get wht i should.. let me also just put in these facts if it helps anyone.. 163,243 Working Citizens Avg. Individual Income Taxes Paid Per Day $134.35 i make 4.15 dollars per happiness point i get and my taxes are on 30% if anyone does the math and actually comes up with an increase some how.. i will be exctatic and i might even be able to send some form of aid over.. please be clear... i have ALL wonders besides military ones.. and all improvements.. etc etc.. so if you want to calculate that in too.. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myruler Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 I'd say trade swap. While collecting, have fast food and resources that increase population/income and when paying bills, have lumber, uranium and iron. If you're still buying infra, swap for infra decreasers when needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myruler Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 Trade swapping isn't that bad, you can usually get it down to 1 trade that you have to switch out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syzygy Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 from the economic point of view: switch, 3BG is > 5BG, no question. from a military point of view: dont switch. your trade setup seems to be stable, which is very important. also your daily bills and military costs are now lower, which would mean you are able to stay out of bill lock longer. overall, it really does not matter. my own nation has a far higher efficiency rating then yours, even while you have inflated NS from 120k soldiers and 13k tanks - and i am using the 5BG all the time. conclusion: no matter if you switch or not, the overall impact to your growth will be really minor. 90% of your income is generated by improvement and wonder effects anyway.

Veritas Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Sugar is better than pigs. As long as you don't collect over 200.00 from each citizen. Basically what is more valuable .5% more citizens or 1 happiness. The number 200.00 isn't exact it's a bit higher but you'll never collect over 200.00 from each citizen right now so it doesn't matter.

Veritas Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Hmm i don't really take soldiers into acount because i only have 15k of them. But even if you were to have 100,000 of them pigs would only save you 50k a day in that regard. If you want the pigs for the soldier efficiency increase that's up to you. I'm pretty anti military myself and i see inflated military as a waste of money just so that you can temporarily boost your ns, but it's entirely up to you. -Veritas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
