Currency Manipulation

Abstract

The type of currency you have available to you, the value of that currency, the volume available, and even whether or not you actually have a valid currency recognized and accepted as unit of trade all play a very significant role in the regional and local combat strength. These factors not only alter how many resources can be acquired using a particular type of currency, but whether or not a particular currency can be used at all. This chapter is a bit more challenging, but illustrates just how vital currency and capital are, and how they can be manipulated using methods similar to that of monetary policy.
