The only issue I'm having to adjust to from vanilla is there is no easy way to calculate overall net income per year without manually calculating the spread.
Right now, I'm not making enough surplus to wage another war against a large neighbor or saving enough per year (5 gold/year) unless I weaken my retinue and levy size of ~20K and have Taira at 38% try to gobble up my 16% to end the game.
It's easy to levy and then go into the red, watching hard earned surplus quickly vanish if not immediately engaging those resources in a war for more territory with the seasonal income changes.
