Yeah but that subsidy runs out after a year, mine could (presumably) be renewed since it is a useful service.

I've had one of those subsidies, useful might be stretching the definition a bit :p

It isn't hard math. I ask the customer what his tech level is and give him enough concessions to increase his range by 1. It's quite useful in a galaxy with such a low tech number.

In case anyone is curious...

I dropped military for mercantile and it's turning out fairly lucrative. I'm finally making money beyond the uncertain financial subsidies, and would be making a profit without them.

My advice is to steal as much tech as soon as you can. It does wonders for everything.

Also, the average tech level in Gemini is 7.5? Stay away you evil wizards with your evil gadgets and doodads! Burn them on the stake. The power of the club compels you!

Our average tech has only recently passed the 7.00 mark. I think I may have had something to do with that. In any case, I need to get rid of all these high tech houses, some of them even have more than 8. It will lead to another robot apocalypse and all end in tears I tell you.

[forsaken1111]

As far as I know Gemini doesn't allow tech facilities. Even the highest tech houses are only like a full point ahead of average.

[Hyo]

No, Gemini allows tech facilities outside of IJ. The only catch here is they tend to, uh, catch on fire quite often.

Interesting. Last time I looked there was only one planet in the IJ.

[Fishbreath]

Nobody 'round here in Eridanus?

Kinda wish our tech level was 7 or 8 instead of 26-27.

[Zangi]

Bade is 30-ish...  and thats the average.

[Demonic Spoon]

Baade is the oldest active galaxy so that's not surprising.

[Hyo]

And Eri's full of batshit insanely rich people. Not that surprising either,

Their average tech increases on like .1 on average per day- so I don't think that newbies should be even dreaming of a tech advantage there.

Yay! My first marriage! :3

Yeah. There are people losing more money to inflation than my monthly gross income.

Just implemented some cost-saving measures for House Kairon which should significantly cut down on monthly costs. We'll see how next month's numbers look compared to this month.

Aside: Is anyone actually interested in seeing my house finances each game month? I've been tracking them for a while now, but not sure if others really care.
