The Greek Strategy for Naselus's Insane/Abundant Mod. I'VE REPLICATED THE AMERICAN ECONOMY IN GAL CIV III

Posted on Tuesday, July 7, 2015

Naselus's Insane/Abundant mod changed LEP from -0.2 morale to -0.2 MONEY per planet, making colonization past 50 planets virtually impossible in the early game.  

That is, unless you adopt the GREEK STRATEGY: 

IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MUCH DEBT YOU GO INTO AS LONG AS YOU CAN FIND SUCKERS WHO ARE WILLING TO FINANCE YOUR ECONOMY AND BUY YOUR BONDS.  

Consequently: build colony ships, and then build EVEN MORE COLONY SHIPS.

Once your economy crashes, TRADE AWAY PRETTY MUCH ANYTHING YOU HAVE FOR MONEY FROM THE AI.

This will finance FURTHER EXPANSION. 

The net result?

I'm running -1000 credits/turn on 100+ colonies.  But that's cool because EVERY TIME I MEET A NEW RACE I TRADE FOR ALL OF THEIR MONEY.  

Furthermore, with my 243 Sources of Durantium, I can continue trading away resources for money for a long, loooooong time.
