Im a little confused on the tax route.
I know that tax is the best income in the game
but the downsides are you make a great slave,
and your income depends on food prices
I am right in saying, the more houseing you have, the more people you have.
The more people your empire tax = greater income
you have to feed your people food, and i believe the break even/loss is 15 food per unit.
But i dont understand, as in your income just feeding people is f all
(under my calculations)
so am i right, in saying to go tax, you need food to feed your people, and also commersial goods?
Thanks,
vampz
P.s anyone got any newbie guides on going tax? |

99+ day(s) ago | ok i think this has been hashed over in a previous post about a page back in the forums, though that went rapidly off topic.
Terran make ok money from tax as long as food is UNDER 15 per AND you have goods AND you have 5,000 loyalty on all your income generating core colonies. Once food is over 15 per, or no goods, your income drops to nothing VERY fast due to the cost of food being more than you earn a turn.
If your willing to risk it,tax is ok for terran, though not the best. Comm terran is the best for stability and agri is best for most money made potentially per turn, food price pending. Tax terran is good as long as food is under 8 or so.
I would go more detail but I`m very tired and can`t be bothered digging up filesforit.
Hope that gives you a breif outlook on how it works |

99+ day(s) ago | for which race?
You also need to get 5,000 loyalty on ALL your main colonies as that increases tax income substantially, though takes a while to do.
Different races have different ways of going tax however |
