This is how I normally play as any faction. Every single turn I have to conquer something else I consider turn wasted. Income always in the red, treasury always spent on building and recruiting only leaving just enough money to not suffer bankruptcy debuffs for this turn and I live off sacking and selling cities. Or joining distant wars for money or siging any pacts if need be. If I get into a situation where I can't get enough money for this turn I beg my frens for gibs and they just give me money
