Screenie! I'm the first to a Million Florins!

[Tajir]

...You heard it here first, from Dahir, I claim myself as being the first Kingoms player to reach 1,000,000 florins, and I got the game last night too.

[snuggans]

[Tajir]

Yeah, thanks for the claps.

Difficulty is Hard/Hard, no cheats, and several hours of hard work. I was surprised to see how easy the English were to defeat. I helped spark the Baron's alliance and I also squashed it, stupid me. Now the English are in debt and decline, hiding in Ireland being destroyed by the people there.

Man, I must say that the Scottish and the Vikings are a tough bunch!

lol wow never seen that much money on med 2

[Gary88]

stirling is only making 477 a turn...and you have a million???

[Tajir]

Xyphos Lee: I had 9,700,000 florins on Med2 and I only had Western Europe.

Gary88: I just took Sterling and as you can see its just a minor castle at this point with no major economic buildings, just military buildings.

then will you have 120000 not a million

[Willor]

then will you have 120000 not a million

because he couldnt have spend some florins on buildings or armies I guess. hmm...

But I doubt its fake, if someone actually wants to get 1 million florins, then its very easy tbh, but I dont see the point to get so much.

How do you guys make so much money? I can keep mine in the black (about 4,000-9,000 profit/turn) but no where near the 1,000,000 mark. I don't want to cheat. I'll start looking for the needed threads, but if you guys could give me a link to some good sub-forums posts, that would be fantastic. BTW, good job Dahir, slow down, enjoy the game.

[Tajir]

I'm away from my home PC right now but I'll post a screenshot later of my treasury. I've never cheated in a game before, no point at all. Unless I'm totally finished and messing around with Mods, but Mods aren't cheats.

By the way, I personally don't know how I got a million, I remember a few turns ago, I had 70,000 florins, and after crushing the English and the Barons Alliance, I sent my leftover Southern armies and around 20 generals up North to butcher the Vikings and Scots, but they got butchered instead, freeing up my army costs.

Since my very first campaigns, its been too easy to rack up florins. Usually in M2TW it takes one good Crusade/Sacking and immediately my treasury hits the roof. Sort of like reality in a way.

But yeah, with minimum rebellion and all of modern England and Wales under my control, its not tough to see why I'm doing so well.

Here's my Economy for you doubters!

[ReDStaR]

why havent you taken the scotish and viking settlements north of you? it looks like theyre empty.

My God! They're FAR from empty. The Scottish and Vikings are war machines and nothing short of it. The English were by far the weakest faction, especially being spread out. But the Scottish have their entire army and amenities cooped up in a tiny area, same with the Vikings and neither are fighting. I'll try to make an alliance between us so I can divide them more.

[Schwertmeister]

Well actually it's not that hard. Anyone who played with Ireland knows that. Once you have united the Isle, You don't need much defence and have a good income. I'm restricting myself from getting too rich by just building units constantly, occupying enemy villages and upgrading every single city and castle as good as possible.

[La Vache Qui Rit]

Doesn't have so huge an excess in the Treasury have a negative impact on on Traits? I thought if youhad too much money you got TRaits along the lines of greedy, miserly, or expensive tastes, dissolute, etc... (Not actual names of traits)

[Sil3nc3]

Its not that hard to get a million or more. I finished the britannia campaign with Norway. I earned 100000 and more a turn. Substract the costs, or lets say you have none but the wages and very little army, because most of your army can be stacked in cities and castles for free. You could get a million within +-10 turns The beginning money is always a problem, but once you sacked big cities (5000 - 40000 florins) you can expand quickly.
