I bet you've taken Sloth. I think QM's nailed why this has happened with this balance mod; it's likely that you are shown more resources than you actually have, so you aren't getting "cheated". The only problem is when you set aside gold that isn't used for the turn. I have Sloth in one of my games and the bug happens every turn.

Sorry about your lab, can't help you there

Yeah, I'm playing Ulm, and I've taken Sloth.

Not.

Heh. Ulm is generally not a nation you want to take sloth with - almost all your decent troops are resource-intensive, so even without the production bug sloth directly translates into you not being able to recruit as many troops.

Ah, I just love the way Dom2 places nations (some nations only 1 or 2 provinces between their capitals, while some wind up 7 or 8 away from their nearest neighbor). Looks like this is going to be a bloody one.

Hell, even Ulm's cruddy troops are pretty resource-intensive.

Infantry? What is this infantry thing you speak of? I don't think I've built a single Ulmish infantryman in the last half-dozen games (mostly single-player) I've played.

The Black Knights of Ulm are never defeated!

Yeah we are packed in like rats in this map. Mathematically we should have 15provs/player. But its looking like I will be lucky to get 6-8. I already have one border!

heh, well the black knights are actually good units, though a bit overpriced - but even they are only really good in the early game against indies. A bit of elemental magic, and all that gold just swirls down the drain...
