      I wish I knew how to program and consequently, graphic design. Make Tea(like a potion in some) items in RPGs that give insane stat boosts or bonuses, make them stackable, and then watch as he annihilates everything. In games like Civ or Galactic Civ, I'd make it one of the most valuable resources by making Tea Leaf Plantations that harvest Tea Leaves, which sell for cheap. However, I'd include Tea Houses that convert said Tea Leaves into Yorkshire Gold Tea, which then sells for INSANE amounts of whatever counts as money in that game.

      The best exploit in M&B is the trainer skill. If you have a bunch of heroes at level ~20, all with the highest trainer skill possible, you can recruit peasants and they will be trained to elite units in an in-game week without you needing to do anything. Setting it up, leveling up the heroes etc, takes forever though
      With Fire and Sword on the other hand is completely broken. It has the banking system which pays something line 15% weekly interest, and it lets you pay for hero training so you can let them level up while you AFK and make a fortune in the meantime. Just find the heroes you want, get 50k via trading, put 10k in 5 different cities (there's a cap to how much money each individual city will hold) and start AFKing. When you have a million or so gold and your heroes are on high level you can buy the best gear in the game and recruit and field an army of elite units

    God this game.. lmao I was wondering when you'd do this one. I was one of the early access alpha/beta contributors, and my god.. The sheer number of reworks that have hit this game since release, had me wondering if it ever really left its beta stage at times. I've often wondered whats happened to it since putting it down for good two years ago despite getting all the DLCs for 'free". To this day, I have never seen the planet I got to name appear in game =[ and if I ever do, It'll be a dead system without any resources most likely lmao

    Hello everyone. That trick works every time and not only during turn shift. Some people reported having problems so here is a small and simple guide. You can add up to 2000% research, 680% raw production 2000% bonus production, etc. after that, it's kinda capped. First download cheat engine. Set speed hack for 0.01 speed and hit apply. Now open some sort of autoclicker( I recommend fastclicker) and run it as administrator. Now switch back to the game, select a starbase and hit the key that spams your mouse clicks just like the Spiffing Brit did it in the video. That's all. It can be done on fast pc, on turn 1, no need for cpu trashing. You are welcome.
