so not long to go if I can't play an extended game of Portugal. According to the game I'm hated by almost everyone, is this typical to expect? I'm only +100 with France, England, Netherlands, Moscovy & Sweden. I'm still a Catholic nation, but there is not much love for my country. I've started only a few wars against Aztec, Inca, Chimu, Aragon & Castile. To help me I have taken royal marriages with any major Catholic nation that I deem a threat.

I downloaded the moctezuma 'unlimted time patch' as I wanted to take defeat the whole of Europe, but I think this may in some way be preventing the game from loading. Gutted, as I see I'm in the year 1753

Actually tolls aka trade taxes will become more than 50% of your taxes. It was most of my tax income in my Portgual AAR. However I had 308% TE. But still it should be more around 2/3rds to 3/4ths even in mid game. Take a look at post #22 and you'll see what I'm talking about. It seems that trade taxes in general have been much overlooked in importance.Daniel A said:Eh, I did not forget tolls. In fact I explicitly mentioned it in my post. In comment number 1.
However my math was wrong, presupposing tolls constitutes 50% of the tax income in the income screen this means that "tax" income for reformed will be 100d in my example, normal tax will decrease from 50 to 45 d while tolls will increase from 50 to 55.
EDIT, Eh, wrong again. Since trade tariffs (and vassals and manu income) are included in monthly tax income one cannot say that 50% of the tax income is normal tax income and 50% trade taxes, some % must belong to tariffs etc. And census taxes is something else that is influenced of the tax bonus/malus for prot/reformed making the equation even more complicated.
Perhaps you can say that if pure trade income constitutes say more than 50% of your income reformed should be the religion of your choice. But these percentages varies in the game. Early on trade income is nothing, then somewhere when reformed becomes a possibility your income from trade sky rockets. Then later on when you are in the end game (presupposing you are WCing) tax and production closes the gap.
And for WC catholic is definitely better for a lot of other reasons. But that becomes another question.

I had the numbers confused when I wrote my earlier post. There is a definite tech cost bonus for reformed nations compared to protestants (as long as we are not comparing huge nations).
