you only need to build a lot of manufactories if you plan to one faith, so you get money to build cathedrals, and you only need to rush this if you have few missionaries or lack humanism, if you stack the money and dont build many buildings but super profitable ones it should last you the gamemy goal is to do a WC in my first iron game and overall 5th EU4 game but I quickly realized how hard it is now after the huge Ottoman nerf! I'll try, though.
Building a manufactory is almost 700 ducats because of inflation and the pashas. There is just so many things to consider. I love this game!
