oh alright i understood it wrong. I thought that you would take away 10% of the profit each time player is defeated. So it would be 10% from 100 gold, and then 10% from 90 gold and then 10% from 81 gold and so on
Instead of doing stuff like you proposed they decided to nerf it so much that for the biggest cargo across the map you can get 2-3k
also: i think you did the math wrong
