Any thoughts on this cash start? I bought more business tech than Residential because it was much cheaper at the time. I am wondering...
1) Is this better than a tech start?
2) Are there any cash starts that are better than this?

I thought I had selected somewhere that my military won't be shown...If anyone grabs me I will retal, it won't be worth it for you.

I can't really compare because I do a Theo cash start, the build per turn bonus really makes it apples to oranges.

This looks good enough to me though. I always feel that cash > tech starts if done correctly.

Tech was a bit more expensive than usual at this point in the set $2650 on average. And I was grabbed 6 times last night for a total loss of 200 acres...that set me back 8 to 10 turns probably.

Getting grabbed is a pain, but I prefer the DR sometimes. Especially if it's early and only for a net loss of 200 acres.

The tech levels look good, regardless of price.

stocking in express is never straight forward. well see what i decide to do. taking corruption for 366 turns may not be the end of the world. you never know what food prices will do though.

I forgot to cancel my pacts before running my last 330 turns. that cost me $160,000x330. there wasnt cheap tech or food so I just ate corruption costs instead of stocking.

This wasn't a great set for cashers

I had 180k tech on the way to market that would have taken me up a bit. If i had finished a but more carefully I would have been >25M all explore.
