Egamma you following my post? Fontan has long been dead (actual Fontan, not the limp leg one that was still around when I came back).
Games not perfect and I like it better. Tom if you add in wood stone or w/e mm make it hard to sell. Game needs another interesting way to play than always going to war with one another.
The most recent dev discussion on additional resources (not particularly recent) had Tom advocating an implementation where regions produced resources solely for those regions, and maybe a few surrounding them. That would mean that they could not actually be traded--if you wanted that resource, you would necessarily have to own the region.
