How Does a Golden Age Affect Production and Economics?
While in a Golden Age, every worked Tile in your empire yields one additional Production and Gold. If you have ten Cities with an average of ten worked Tiles each, you’ll gain an extra 100 Production and Gold per turn. Because they rely on the number of worked Tiles you possess, a Golden Age grants greater benefits to a large civilization than to a small one. This ensures that Golden Ages scale through the game along with the rising costs of Buildings, Wonders and Units. Specialists don’t contribute Production or Gold during a Golden Age.
