hi, can i get a tip on creating a positive income in my games?

And always - ALWAYS - play with your science rate when you are 1 turn away from a discovery. Since there are caps on how long (40 turns) or how short (4 turns) research takes (hmm... that's not very good English), you can often lower science to 10% for the final turn and rake in cash, while still getting the tech... and then you set the rate back up high.

Generally, I don't do this until I have a few cities up and running, but it really starts to pay off once I'm a republic.

Happy huntin'

i loathe monarchy. sure the corruption is a bit better, but you lose the whipping, the huge military, etc.

i go from despotism -> communism

(i don't use the facist patch anymore, my friends called it cheating)

u lose the huge military?

As i see it Monarchy gives me better income then despotism and with that i can have larger army and more cities cuz i can take em over..
