I think one of the main reasons that I enjoy playing NTW more than RTW or M2TW is that you don't have greedy & incompetent city officials bleeding your exchequer dry.
I can't count the times that I have carefully assembled my armies ready to make my 'big push', only to find that I have to start disbanding them due these sheisters driving me into bankruptcy ! With NTW, as you know, once a city's business infastructure is built up, it basically runs itself as long as it's garrisoned adequately.
It may well be that having a human element at the helm of control in each town & city makes for a more realistic game, but it can be oh so annoying too. I play the Total War games to build armies & fight battles, not to worry about who is fiddling the books !

I would like to be the governor (and will not be caught, of course) in real life. Originally Posted by RO Citizen

Re: A pox on corrupt governers.
I see from Jackhammer's avatar that he must be a fan of Henry VII and his attempts to put the economy in order. Plenty of corrupt or incompetent officials around in Napoleonic times just like today.
