I griped a while ago about how high maintenance costs were in AIC, and how it was killing my economy (literally, 20 warships - 10 frigates, 10 destroyers - were enough to set my income to the negative). This game was with infinite resources. I quit that game cuz i got sick of it. I started a new one on finite resources, and notice that the maintenance costs are MUUUCCHHH lower. Has anyone else noticed this? what is the logic behind this? i don't mean the obvious answer that infinite resource games have more resources... that much i realize. but the damper that maintenance put on my economy rendered my first AIC game (infinite resources) unplayable, while my finite resources game I have going now is nowhere near as bad. why?
