Explosives are also consumed by combat engineers. Consequently, their RGO output bonus has been much increased. Also, Aristocrats have explosives and fertilizer as life needs, representing inputs into their RGOs. Building large navies will be prohibitively expensive, and the dreadnought, the king of the sea, costs a king's ransom to keep afloat.Įxplosives are taken out of the military production chain entirely, being used mainly for construction. All steamships consume coal in proportion to their hullsize and speed, and dreadnoughts consume fuel too. Artillery in particular consumes massive amounts of ammo to compensate for its supreme power. Instead, army units consume regular clothing (uniforms) and ammunition, which no longer is an input of small arms and artillery but a final good in its own right, consumed by both land units and warships. Canned food is no longer a military upkeep good, but a life need for soldiers and officers (no more eating twice as much while at war!), and a lot cheaper and more massproduceable to make it affordable. Unit needs have been expanded with several goods to create more varied demand. All effects caused by everyday & luxury good fulfilment have consequently been reworked. 25% rather than 50% everyday needs is considered the 'balance point' when a POP is satisfied, and an early-game poor POP will typically get 10%-30% everyday goods if working at a reasonably profitable place. Several everyday goods have been duplicated among luxury needs to allow dynamic increase in demand for 'more of the same' with increased income, along with 'actual' luxury goods.įulfilling everyday & luxury needs has deliberately been made hard for an early-game, pre-industrial economy.

Everyday and especially luxury good demands have been massively increased to provide ever-growing demand along with industrial development to produce further growth, and prevent stagnation from too much money accumulating in the bank. Urban POPs have part of their food needs covered by canned food to represent the greater need for food processing for urban populations. A distinction is made between urban (craftsmen and clerks) and rural POPs (farmers and labourers), causing different needs: Urban POPs build houses of cement and heat then with coal, while rural POPs build houses of lumber and heat them with timber. Poor POPs eat mostly grain, whereas the richer a POP is, the higher a proportion of its food needs are covered by more expensive types such as fish and cattle. Also, due to the relative dispersion of aristocrats, this will lead to railroads gradually appearing throughout the country into capitalist-less places even without government intervention.Īll POPs require the same amount of food, but the types differ. Once a province has factories, the aristocrats will slowly begin converting to capitalists to take charge of the factories they helped set up. This guarantees a steady flow of money towards initial industrialization, as the aristocrats keep getting income from their RGOs while building factories - solving the chicken-egg problem of capitalists and starting factories in the vanilla game. To help initial setup of industries, aristocrats have also been given the ability to build, them being natural initiators due to having a relative large amount of capital concentrated in their hands in a pre-industrial society. The starting setup is thorougly reworked to accommodate these changes, with changes in POP and RGO types to provide a stable, functional and plausible initial economy.

The starting point has been establishing goods demands by POPs, buildings and units along realistic and consistent lines and RGO and factory outputs and prices according to initial assumptions about inherent profitability under equilibrium conditions.
