I haven't been having much of a problem myself, but that's largely because I steal from everybody.

When I played the Underworld, I got a 123,000 gold refund on training and hiring my own agents. My pcs produced about 30,000 a turn.

My point was that this was a major portion of my income. Nobody has laid out a logical argument against it yet. Why would he get gold when another kingdom trains, but not when he does?

I don't look at it as UN getting gold when UN trains, but rather an "inside discount". That makes more sense to me in the realm of this roleplaying thing.

this was how I kind of looked at all the kingdoms getting there bonus it just makes sense.
In the UN case they have so much effect on agents they can even dictate the cost. So if we were applying some economics the UN cost is not going up whether they charge 2000 or 10000. so they should be getting anything over a set amount not just 25% off the top. maybe it costs 2k to train an agent fine. then at 10k the UN rakes in 8k of mark up. or the UN always only pays 2k for his own agents because the rest is just profit being paid to himself anyway.
