TRADE NODES
Control of trade nodes is very important to your income
(The following is an example information is taken from a saved game, max trade partners, control of all 6 trade nodes, 9 trade ships and 1 nanban trade ship in each trade node, warhorse trade node is lower because of control of 3 warhorse specialty provinces your figures will vary)
actual koku per turn approximately 15000 from trade nodes and unsold resources from trade nodes.
Iron trade node 1675, warhorse trade node 872, Cotton node 2571, raw silk node 3127, Incense trade node 1300, second incense trade node 1300
METSUKE agents boost to province tax rate if stationed in a castletown(PreRD)
Level 1 3% approx.
Level 2 11% approx.
Level 3 14% approx.
Level 4 25% approx.(refer to post #7)
Level 5 27% approx.
Level 6 30% approx.
these percentages take into account all possible overseeing town bonuses from the Metsuke skill tree but not retainers.
Metsuke economic retainers-Yakuza +1 to cunning when overseeing towns -Kabukimono +1 to cunning when overseeing towns/+1 to cunning when overseeing armies(2%-3% tax boost from each retainer)
Daimyo economic retainer-Treasurer +1% to trade income tariffs
Generals can be assigned commissions Commissioner of Finance Increases your clan wide tax rate and reduces unit upkeep for that general, Comm. of Warfare reduces clan wide recruiting costs and Comm. of Development reduces building costs. There is also a commissioner for Supply . To assign a commission click on the Clan Management button to the left of end turn then Family & Council then the general then commission type.
Generals commission bonus goes up with rank>ex. Rank 1 Comm. of Finance +1% bonus to clan wide tax rate/-2% upkeep cost units under this man's command>Rank 4 bonus is +4% clan wide tax rate/-8% upkeep cost units under this man's command. Same applies for other commissioners.
You can get up to -15% to upkeep for units under this man's command by learning inspirational in the general's skill tree. Marrying a Prudent Wife gives a -1 morale/-10% upkeep all unit's under this man's command.
Example of Iwami Province Autumn 1572 normal tax rate
province wealth 12142 tax rate 82% income 9980
Farming 1259 town 6383(+88) town buildings 65 tax level -31 other 15 global food supply +39
What I built there—Fortress,Kabunakama,Famous Temple,Infamous Mizu Shobai District,Land Consolidation,Imperial Roads & Towers,Nanban Quarter,Gold Mining Complex. I have a level 6 Metsuke in the castletown. So far in this campaign I have learned all the Chi Arts except secret police and sword hunt.
It is generally best to build the Kabunakama in a province with Philosophical Tradition(Metsuke). Infamous Mizu Shobai District in Ninja Specialty Province. Famous Temple in Holy Site Province. This will allow you to get out higher rank agents but you’re playing style may vary.
Another example>Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
FINANCE PANEL is located in the lower right corner of the campaign map screen, up right of the end turn button click on this for your clan’s financial information.
CURRENT TREASURY, projected income next turn and food surplus information is located in the lower right corner of the campaign map screen below the end turn button.
What happens if you go bankrupt http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=469319
LOOTING can bring in money fast but incurs a severe penalty to public order. In general this should only be done in dire situations.
FOOD SURPLUS positive food surplus contributes to town growth across all provinces. Negative food surplus can cause bankruptcy and rebellions. Farm upgrades are a positive for food surplus, castletown upgrades and higher level market buildings are negatives.
TAX LEVEL incurs a penalty to town growth so be aware of your clan wide tax setting. This can be found on the finance panel tab.
239.8% tax rate insane but true http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=471030
EXEMPT FROM TAX you can exempt a province from tax by double left clicking the castletown and checking the box in the lower right corner. This will remove the income from the province(lower income next turn), remove the tax burden to public order penalty(effectively increasing public order) and remove the tax level penalty to town growth(increasing town growth)
ADMINISTRATION COST is a penalty to taxation that increases the more regions you control and the higher your tax rate. This is CA's way of implementing corruption and bureaucratic overheads of collecting taxes in a big empire, etc. To see administration costs double click on the castletown then mouse over tax percentage.
I suggest new players read through the guides before playing Shogun 2
It is my hope that especially new players and to a lesser extent experienced players can print this out and use it as a quick reference when playing Shogun 2
Some information was obtained from darkside’s economy guide and the Shogun 2 encyclopaedia and chronobombs guide to retainers.
