Best way to make money?

[Mr. Noodle]

What do you do to make money? Do you spread your forces out across the world or focus on on area? Is there a good combo to make max cash while not generating a butt load of heat? Is sending henchmen out to help with cash worth it? All the years playng EG and I've never figured out the best way.

You can always use the built in cheat mode but if not then Guards are the best equipped to collect money. Each area is marked with a 9/9 or 7/7 or what ever. This is the amount they will pay per hour per thief. A 9/9 would pay 900 gold per thief per hour. A 9/7 would pay 900 per Guard thief and 700 for any other type of thief.

At least that is my guess.

So pick the best paying areas using Guards where you can.

It's easier to focus on one area (or two with alternation), that way it's easy to manage the heat since you only need to worry about a single faction. It's also good practice to withdraw them when doing acts of infamy and missions that will increase heat.

Ubertrap is by far, the best way to make money.

The American mid west and Middle East are the best regions to plunder.
9 Wealth but only 7 Security. ^^

Don't capture the maid, until you do agents won't appear regardless of heat level. Focus your efforts on the wealthiest regions and once you have around 20 million you can stop since that will probably last you the rest of the game.

Best way to do that is to use the cheat codes to get money that way so your minions can focus on plotting instead so that all the acts of infamy will be revealed as soon as you meet the requirements. And there are other codes that allow you to build instantly and get all fully-levelled henchmen too, though that last one is a real a gamebreaker since you can raise an army of them that way.

If you need to cheat, you're not playing the game right.

Best way of exploiting is to do stealing and plotting before kidnapping the maid so you don't have to worry about generating heat. And employing the Matron/Lord Kane trick to neutralise Super Agents.

Exploiting game design, cheating...

pffftttt...

Clearly you have no idea how to play the game if you are having that big a problem with super agents. The only one that has ever given me a problem is Drik cause his entire theme is shoot on site.
