    Default Best cities what you can loot.

    It is post where you can learn and teach eachother to loot best cities, where you can get huge money.
    So far my best citie was Venice, this is just city and this is not capital. If I'm not wrong this was at this time trading capital. I have looted this two times and first time I dont remember exactly maybe I got 32 k.
    Then I gave it back to Austria and next time I looted it again and then I got 45 k. So guys share with us your looting storys.

    I got around 30k out of Istanbul. Really I needed the place peaceful but it was too tempting not to loot.

    Just 30 and 40K?

    I looted Vienna, Paris, London and I got from 30 to 55K! Depends on the buildings and the upgrades.

    The problem is that to get rid of the useless area after that you have to pay someone to take it. I usually gave these cities to a protectorate with a tech, so they would lose them and I could re-loot them.

    Looting doesn't make it useless. Repairing the buildings still nets you a huge profit.

    The unrest is easy to overcome with keeping the army stationed in the region for a bit while not taxing the region.

    I have plans to invade Vienna and Madrid, London and other Britis regions too. I play with France and I have huge Grande Armée so I can take them easily.

    Berlin gave me over 70k in a Russia campaign. Just right as I was going bankrupt.

    That really feels like an exploit. Not that you shouldn't do it, just that the value should be highly diminished after looting once, the region should be rocked back to the stone age. Historically it often took many years for cities/regions to recover from being sacked. But in NTW it's 3 turns- rinse and repeat.

    Copenhagen wasn't much better !

    Is Rome worth looting ?
    PussyWillow is the best distillation of the classic Tull formula, juxtaposing Anderson's gruff but expressive vocals and a strong, insistent melody bolstered by well-placed, crunchy guitar chords.
