Resources less important than Income?

Thanks rdonj. Though I wouldn't rate my chances of getting 15 provinces in year 1 as any nation!

WRT CBM, then, I have asked this before, and might even start another thread. I may be about to give up on my present game and start a new one. Should I do a CBM, which I have never done before? I'm afraid I have no prospect of ever playing MP, so SP is all that concerns me. I think I've gathered that the AI will play neither any better nor any worse, so presumably it's only me that's affected. One thing which puts me off is that the tables etc. in the manual which I use a lot are superceded, it's a pain having to download & learn different ones. Also, I think the in-game descriptions text didn't get changed(?), doesn't that mean I won't readily know things have been altered?
