Since you will have less money at first, skip the bridge repair, get the Bank Staff investment by having Trin copy the clerk, the mine with the discount from having Megail in your harem, and then you need to choose between either Premium Steel + Public Works (better RP and army variables) or Megail's Special Supplier (better ProN). I generally favor the later. You will finish chapter 1 with just 5k, but at the start of chapter 2 you can get another 5k the copy bank clerk managed to skim, this will give you 10k which is enough for the Stineford magic shop.

The other thing that's missing is that I've always hired Iron Cudgel early as well (to save Carina's soldiers), which actually costs another 30K by the Reunion (plus the 10K missed on other opportunities). It does cost me a Shining Armor, but I suppose there's no clear use for that at the moment-surprisingly, it doesn't cost any Carina RPs.

Thanks for that. I'm going to plug this into the calculator and see what happens up to the Battle of Yhilin, and then maybe give it a shot.
