Suggestion: Raising taxes: only in turn 2+ after conquering

[Maltrease]

What if you only received money from the provence if you owned it at the start of the turn?

So if you conquer a territory you get the money that was collected the previous turn, most likely 100%.

If you jack up the tax rate to 200% and your enemy takes it back they would collect the 200%tax, not you.

Make sense to you me... your army just busted up the defending force, heads straight to the tax colector and asks him to hand everything over. The tax collector spent the entire season previous collecting the money at the previous tax rate.

You then inform the tax collector that you are the new power in the this land and to collect twice the money. He goes about his business as your army flees and the province in retaken by your enemey.

They walk up the tax collector who hands them double the money and tells them about how pissed everyone was over the whole experience.

Depending on how everything is coded this might be a real easy fix.
