Default Re: Taxation above 100 (long)

Setting tax rates above 100 can give you an early-game boost at the cost of losing some population. I did an analysis of how much money you stand to make in the short term, as a percentage of how much money you would make from normal rates, assuming you have enough patrollers to keep unrest at zero. (I.e. it's a best-case analysis of "extra" income if you have spare patrollers lying around.)


Patrollers have a gold upkeep... this is not included within your equation. Patrollers can be good for bottleneck locations during the early part of the game, but using units for expansion is better.
