The reason you have too much money is that under 1.00 and 1.01, factory efficiency didn't work properly. They started off at 100% efficiency, and went up from there, so you can imagine how much money you were making.

I am not sure I would like to have an small army in the middle of Europe. Suddenly you are an easy prey to take. Someone declares war on you, 300 divisions cross your borders in a synchronized way, and you have to quit in disgust.
Also, making 100 a day is not much. 2,000 is more like it :D

select your farmer, labourer, as long as you have the ncessary resources (tobacco, reg. cloth, reg. furnniture, paper, lux cloth, lux furniture), you can promote them into craftsman or clerk. You can then promote clerks to capitalists if you wish.

It's quite easy, and don't forget RR your entire nation.

It's easy to spend money for me, it's figure out how to spend them the best way is the biggest problem. Should I promote pop first? RR first? or build up some military to deter potential enemies? Use diplomacy to buy land, tech? As you can see, cash is king in this game, kinda :D

I have all the resources I need to promote people and 600k in the bank. The problem is that if I take all my pop and make them industrial workers, I won't have resources to manufacture with.

Or can I buy all them? I don't really trust the trade system to be that robust to protect against sudden shortages of say coal or iron.

I would really patch to 1.3b and start over.

1.0 is such a walk over that you can do a WC with alomst any mid tier nation.

Having millions in the savings is commonplace.

MP growth is absurd.

Factory efficiency as high as 200% :eek: :wacko:

There will come a point in your game soon when you realize that there is nothing in the whole world that can stop you.

I destroyed most of Europe in one of my first few games of Vicky 1.0 with PORTUGAL. Wow. So glad this game has been patched to 1.3b.

It is a fun change but get ready for a heck of alot more of a challenge when you do patch up.

You have to, just import from WM. If you're very worried set it to < 1000 to build up a buffer against shortages.

Of course, you can also just get them from your colonies...hint hint :)

Is it common then to have no POP's in your industrialized zones's RGO's?

Damn alphabet soup.

In very industrialized nations, yes

That's why you go for colonies, or conquer uncivilized nations

It really depends on what country you are. Certain countries near the end pretty much have to recruit out of their RGO's in the home land. I usually try and leave 1 worker at any rate. Sometimes though it doesn't work. And you don't know what to much money is until you see a heavily industrialized China. My god....... you can see a picture of what I'm talking about here

I also found that at late game I will get rich and don't know what to do. I don't like a too big to mangage country so no world conquest. Give my population money doesn't help point and migration. There should be something reward for country with happy and rich population!

Then I found that you can use that extra money to build capital ships like Dreaghnout, Heavy Cruiser, Battleship. They don't obsolute and don't get loss like your stockpile! And they give you prestiges and militaryscore!

Yes......Capital ships are the way to go.

I always see them as the true meaning of 'Empire' at the end of Vicky, and naming them is fun too.

Then there is the possible showdown with GB and the Royal Navy, as long as your not them of course. :D

Yeah. There are only really two limiting factors in the game, money and population. Enough of those and you can get as much of everything else as you want. Population*time also equals money, but you need to spend money to make money....
