Too much gold

[Rigmored]

• too much gold mainly for arnor and gondor Kings.
• economy in vanilla CK2 is not highly efficient : if we want dwarves with mountoains of gold we must accept higher values. The buildings made by numenoreans also cost a lot and are much more impressive than what exists in vanilla.
• let's not forget colonisation requires a lot of gold.

We should precise :

• too much gold mainly for arnor and gondor Kings.
• economy in vanilla CK2 is not highly efficient : if we want dwarves with mountoains of gold we must accept higher values. The buildings made by numenoreans also cost a lot and are much more impressive than what exists in vanilla.
• let's not forget colonisation requires a lot of gold.

The flow of gold is mainly caused by the fact some kings have a huge desmene with often great and wealthy provinces. The buildings at start advantages numenoreans Kings.

• I already removed the bonus caused by technology (-25% at start)
• I could lessen the terrain dependant economic buildings for humans (50% ?)
• as long as we allow a huge desmene size, all of this will not change completly the result : we could reduce the desmene size bonus given by artifacts (max +1 per artifact ?).
• one severe way to do reduce the income is to remove some baronies or to set some provinces as wilderness (more or less like what is Arthedain at Kin Strife start date on Github. BUT this would also effect troops. After a while, the player will get back to a huge income but this is already possible in vanilla (maybe to a lesser point however, but I never got wealthier in MEP than with byzantium)

And we should remove the racial bonus giving arnorian and gondorian more tax income.
