This is a good game with great potential. I personally think that trade is an important part of this game as well as that era IRL. So I just want to highlight some of the potential improvements you can make to trading.
1)
Ability to automatically block exports for spesified. goods
Options menu that will automatically block trade requests of specified materials.
You will be able to block all the materials that you don't want to export and as a result you will only get trade requests about materials that you want to export.
2)
AI Trade improvements:
City States constantly improve their trading routes the whole game but they don't export/import anything. So they end up with 20+ trade routes only to import 1 horse.
So the reason I would want to make a city state my client instead of annexing it would be it being a wealthy and complex trading hub. Just like modern day Hong Kong. These trade hub city states should have extra wealth and trade bonuses and in that case annexing these city states would remove those bonuses hence you would want to turn them into client states instead.
3)
Provincal trade blocking/allowing option. These works the same way as highlight No.1 however this is a step forward from that. Instead of globally blocking the trade requests for a good it would be even better if we could block a certain trade good according to province.
4)
Trade Wars! Ability to put embargo on a state. Efficiency of this embargo would depend on:
- Your diplomatic reputation
- Your power level in comparison to embargo target.
- Your naval power
+ In addition to all those above if a trade route of embargo target passes directly your country you get %100 efficiency of blocking that trade route to embargo target.
Trade DLC hurray!
