Hey! I have a weird idea!

Why don't they enlarge the default resource every nation has? Make it 4 or 3, I think this would allow nations in TE to easily buildup their strength as these resources give them some break on too much upkeep cost or whatever.

Or, why don't just add some more resources to those already existing resources such as........... shall we say milk, rice, geo-energy or whatever!

I think its already easy enough to build up. More money could be fun, but adding more resources just makes the game even easier. In TE you already have to hardly work to grow pretty quickly, honestly resources are one of the few things you have to actually work to set up if you want to grow quickly.
