yes. I delayed finishing off the siblings in Chapter two and had a horde of thousands of gold to utterally crush my opponents in the next chapter. Your research also carries over so you can if you wanted to wait enough turns research everything in chapter 1 then bring it to bear in chapter 2.
why would you do that
I didnt want to start a new campaign to see more of the political decisions. I also killed my wives so i could experience all the princess archs. It was late last night and i wanted to experiencing more of the SP experience i was anticipating for so long before going to bed.
