- Recruit units. - dirt cheap. And most of my recruits come from prisoner pool, which is free.
- Upgrade units. - dirt cheap.
- Buy food. - dirt cheap
- Buy equipment. - Armor and weapons just meaningless in this game. I'm buying top armor and weapons after I get filthy rich, since they don't do anything to actual gameplay.
- Recruit companions.- dirt cheap.
- Pay wages.- first serious meaningful gold sink in your list. But killing and looting cover this so easily, one don't need passive income for it.
- Bost buildings. - meaningless.
- Pay for release prisioners. - why? What point of this action?
- Pay for avoiding battles if needed. - Never done it. I'm always faster.
- Buy workshops. - For what? To have 200 gold per day? Any rusting sword from battle loot do the same.
- Buy caravans.- If you involved in wars your caravans will be destroyed, if you not - what do you need money for?
- Give money to lords to improve relationship. - Maybe. Spending influence was working better for me.
So, there is 1.5 valid gold sinks in this game. All easily covered by battle loot.
