Anno 1800 How To Make Money

[@IcyyMike]

Money Money Monayyyyyyyy

[@VirusXAX]

I could kill for that moneeeeey

[@alvarg]

funny i never edited my news i thought if i did there would be like a negative side effect to it.

[@Kinenner]

Help me... I have 50k in royal taxes!..... its destroying my goal of hitting 1 billion in the bank...I have like 5k-7k investors on one island... buutt I spread out my whole empire on 7 islands... but why hold investors all on different islands... it makes it a problem to send there needs to them because you only have so many islands in the new world to provide for the investors. For 5k investors it takes 3 islands to provide for them from the the new world... if i spread them out on all my islands I would have to changee sooo much in trade routes and infrastructure... soo have an ideas? That island with 5k-7k investors also is my factory hub and engineering hub. Meaning there are another 3k-4k engineers. The reason they are estiamtes is because of rum... I run out of rum 9 investors leave all the homes, I run out of another thing 5 more leave.... so it basically drastically changes my economy, though im in the positave 60k-100k.

[@Kinenner]

I also decimated my enemy's... also One edit to change in the video... When you city grows to well over 25k in population.. DONT DO consumerism...IF you dont have plentiful of that item, I learned happenss works far better in the huge populations. If you want to know why I explain a bit more... but this already seems toooo long.

[@gamerfps6645]

This game works just like real life, build lose money, house builded earnings you money every sec.

[@SamsquatchYT]

As someone who just got the Anno Console edition, this has been a true lifesaver. I went from swimming in the red sea of debt to flourishing in the riches in the matter of a few minutes. Thanks for the simple yet detailed informative video!

[@scott8448]

If you haven’t already figured it out you can buy shares in other islands and steal their profit. Apart from that just keep consumed items in the profit by upgrading the right amount of houses

[@danielhardman234]

​@@scott8448 isn't stealing if it's legally mine

[@pelementmaker]

This is the best tip youre gonna get, so listen close: dont overproduce.

[@IcyyMike]

Factual

[@DGARedRaven]

Or, alternatively: Make sure to actually sell overproduction. And by that, I mean: Get any ship that is just sitting in your harbour and sell your stuff away.

[@jesuschristislord77733]

So true. That sell above this level thing seems useless.

[@snugglyjeff214]

This isn't really true. You should always be overproducing at least a little, and selling off the excess. Trying to always have just enough will consistently put your workforce unhappy with shortages and this causes all kinds of problems, especially once you are managing more than one or two islands and can't focus all your time on them.

[@shelbyseelbach9568]

BS, overproduce and sell. Everything. All the time.

[@jeffreysmink9918]

Another way, is getting an island close to the prison. Make as many soap as possible and have a trade route to the prison.

[@simonvega7640]

can confirm this, that's my method, too. works fine, even better on twink island due to loss of attractiveness (pig farms)

[@shaunaqpaul3078]

Yeah, also the prison needs a lot of soap to function, coz the inmates keep dropping it. ;)

[@michaelgerstl239]

imho the best way to get lots of money

[@TheSonicfrog]

I use the "blueprint" feature to prebuild farms, factories, etc, which costs nothing. I then "update" as I need to start producing additional resources. This is a great feature which allows you to efficiently zone large areas in advance of needs.

[@brian-us6vw]

@Arnold Rimmer great tips both of u

[@FriedrichBarb]

@Arnold Rimmer Just Shift+U on Blueprint buildings before quitting game, guess many have to learn the hard way

[@AnMComm]

@@FriedrichBarb But why would you just build all the plans? They're there precisely because they have to stay as plans. Not to mention that we don't always have the resouces to build them in the first place.

[@snugglyjeff214]

@@FriedrichBarb Don't make excuses for bad game design. The blueprints should stay.

[@FriedrichBarb]

@@snugglyjeff214 Just dont over-plan with blueprints causing lack of resources, its a minor mistake in game design & extremely easy to avoid... but yes I agree they should just stay

[@cdesp9633]

I wish I had seen this before I started to play this game. I never played the series so it was all new for me. I spent days trying to figure out how not to lose money! Great video for beginners like me. Thank you!

[@xiki1506]

Yo lo consegui en la segunda partida tras informarme un poco más

[@davelangton1217]

This is the first ANNO game and learned better through trial and error. The best tip I can give - USE BLUEPRINT MODE! It's amazing as you can plan and it doesn't cost money/resources until you finalize. Only finalizing when it's required. It's super easy to become bankrupt if you build too quickly.

[@FINANBANK]

Hey! A new and funny way to play 1800. There is a bigger map (arc) Select 3 opponents (with 3 stars category) Set 3 or 4 island Put on each 2 cannons Play only with the red houses Sell soap en the old world and food in the new world 🌎, in order to support the war against the 3 of them.. Hard to win , they will fight up tho the last island 😂😂😂

[@greventlv]

Wow, this was the best tutorial I've seen on this and I've been looking for two days.

[@IcyyMike]

Thank you!

[@WeirdViking]

8:00 might have wanted also point out workers pay over double in taxes as it only has 9 ppl and you get +20 instead of the maxed out +10 you get with farmers. I've found that maintaining a healthy worker force is the key to a really good economy. Farmers dont pay enough and artisan needs are so complicated that its a pain to maintain. But workers are relatively easy to mass produce and keep happy.

[@LordAnublz]

Beer production is where the money biz starts - like in real life :D

[@infinitexp420]

Dude..... I'm new to this game and I gotta say you BOOSTED my wealth good sir cheers to money!:D #Economy101

[@JonspuCrypto]

Just started looking this video when my losses was like -46k ... and growing :D

[@peterwm234]

One thing you forgot was Public Moorings. These can bring you MASSIVE income especially during festivals and if you have lots of animals in your zoo.

[@IcyyMike]

True, but I really focused early game on this guide, that's a tier 4 item. But I agree with you.

[@Gunker02]

this is probably why my income fluctuates so much... im probably meeting my citizens needs at one point and then i run out of a product and then ill go way into the negatives.

[@rjc0234]

The royal tax is a pain in the arse. I need this many farmers to support my workers, who support my artisans

[@ehsteve231]

You're probably playing well; I think it's meant to be unavoidable, not just a penalty for spamming farmers. It makes sense that as you grow the Empire would tax you more.

[@rjc0234]

@@ehsteve231 true, but if i weren't to take into consideration my investments in other islands, i would be earning -€1,000, as royal tax is about €2,000. Not very fair when my total population is just enough to sustain the next tier

[@Kaneisback2]

I find selling soap to the prison to be really good. Only factory worth overproducing on for that reason.

[@Mike-pd6np]

If any new players are here, like I was when I watched this a month ago. Watch this video carefully, and follow every direction. This video is the only reason my city is so successful now. DO NOT overproduce. Keep an eye on your residence needs and happiness, and sell overstock.

[@snugglyjeff214]

i think overproduction is fine as long as you remember to sell excess. It's profit...another source of income.

[@DeleriousOdyssey]

Why do people keep saying this??? It's my first playthrough and overproducing and then selling the excess (of finished goods like beer, windows, weapons) is exactly how I'm surviving and staying profitable. I just came here to find other ways.

[@Mike-pd6np]

@DeleriousOdyssey I didn't word it correctly. What I really meant to say, is when you're first starting a new city, be careful to not overproduce. Those buildings require people and maintenance and early on, you don't have a lot of money, so the maintenance cost of production buildings will severely decrease the amount of money you're making. Once you have a large population with steady income, and all the residents have their needs met, then it's ok to overproduce certain things to sell and make a little extra cash.

[@SuperTtKiller]

Ship of the line is 25.000$

[@snugglyjeff214]

The only downside to this game, is they have constrained you on exactly what to build and when to build it. It feels at times like arbitrary rules that put you on rails towards the end goal. This is good in a sense that it keeps from overwhelming the player with too many options, but bad in that you are always being told what to do next on a particular island. Now what kind of fixes this is the fact that you end up managing many islands, and get to pick and choose exactly what island you will work on next. You get to decide which island will specialize in a particular trade good to ship back to a main island. There is the constant balancing act required to make sure you are meeting demand on every island. It really is quite genius, but I wish they didn't force a linear progression of goods to satisfy happiness within each tier of the population.

Nobody in online games uses Propaganda effectively tbh. I was gaining 7k in taxes, while my competitors were making like 1.2k max

[@ObligatoryPun]

Connor as in overworking people and then paying influence to conceal the unhappiness? Or do you mean something else ?

[@connorphilipp]

@@ObligatoryPun nah, my strategy is to always make sure the people on my main island have everything (mainly so there are no riots there). That gives me the opportunity to spend my influence in propaganda on something else and it just happens that you can use it to gain more money. I ALWAYS change all three "real" articles to the Propaganda that gives me additional income (direct income ofc). Oh btw: I recommend not fulfilling the happiness needs of your citizens on your islands that are NOT your main island. In the end it's just unnecessary work you could be doing growing your main island! Just plop a police station on each island and they'll deal with those islands. Important is only that you keep your citizens on your MAIN ISLAND happy!!!

[@TotalWarriorLegends]

@@connorphilipp thats a very good tip, so keep only the people happy on your main island, other lands don't.. Why then?

[@connorphilipp]

@@TotalWarriorLegends Why I only keep the main island happy? So I can grow my economy quicker. You want to get as much out of your resources as quickly as possible, while covering as little ground as possible. Basically what I'm saying is that you get more income in the long run if you focus on upgrading to higher tier than to have tons of islands where you just have tier 1-2 (obviously you can still occupy those islands for future use though). My strategy is always: 1) Get a good starting island 2) Buy Steel from the AI 3) Go to another island (you'll probably have tier 2 by then already) and grow a second island with leftover wood (without luxury items - only build buildings that give income [aka no church or school]) to tier 2 max (but only give them the basic needs of tier 1 to save time) Also: Make sure to build police stations, because without luxury items or propaganda they're bound to rebel 4) Always set Propaganda to income. ALL OF IT. 15%, 10% & 5% 5) Steamroll your competition PS: Don't build a shipyard till the late game unless your opponent is really aggressive. A good sign to tell is usually if he builds on more islands than one (build, not just occupy/claim). If he does then he's probably not going to attack you early on, because he's too busy Always BUY your ships. If you do the steps I said then you should have enough money to buy all the ships you *need*
