Embargoing other countries at that node.Ĭountries with low Trade Power share in a node benefit more from increasing their own Trade Power there than reducing the Trade Power of other countries.If the node still has un-colonized provinces, colonization is an alternative. Since several buildings give a percentage increase to trade power, provinces with base increases from estuaries or centers of trade will benefit more. Constructing trade buildings in important centers of trade in that node.Sending Light Ships to that node and sinking the Light Ships of other countries.Effective ways on increasing one's share of Trade Power in a node therefore include: Thus, Trade Power largely comes from provinces and Light Ships. Merchants only provide a token amount of Trade Power, and sending power upstream is extremely inefficient due to the -80% penalty (stacks multiplicatively, not additively, with other modifiers) for doing so. Thus, to control a desired node, a country should increase its Trade Power share in that node. Trade power shares Ĭontrol of a trade node is dictated by a country's Trade Power share in that node. Please help with verifying or updating this section. decrease the amount of trade flowing out downstream, by far the hardest to accomplish.īecause merchants increase trade steered out of a node, by far the most lucrative method of increasing trade is to place merchants in a chain of controlled nodes so that each merchant compounds the value of trade it passes on to the next.Ĭontrolling trade nodes.increase the amount of trade flowing in from upstream through trade steering towards it or again through increasing goods produced upstream or.accumulating positive goods produced modifiers, e.g.
developing base production in owned provinces.To increase the trade value of a node a player can: Trade value is the sum of locally produced goods and the inputs from trade nodes flowing in (upstream), and minus the value forwarded to other trade nodes (downstream).
