I have what are considered the two best resources in the game: Fish and wheat.

If anyone out there is lookin for these resources to seriously boost their population and their income, reply here. I will accept offers.

Your resources are far too good to be using them in a horrible trading setup like that. Get the FF/beer/Construction/Steel setup.

[rsoxbronco1]

your resources are

You should definitely go for FF/beer/construction/steel like o ya baby said

With a little work, I'm sure you'll have a the best circle set up.

if you start out with silver and gems you can have fine jewelry, steel, automobiles, construction, microchips, radiation cleanup, asphalt, and scholars. so they arent really the best recources in the game.

You're an idiot, since that setup you just listed is really bad. Don't go around preaching if you have no clue what you're talking about. Just because there are 8 bonus resources doesn't mean it's good. The 3 resource build has been proven to be way better.

The ONLY resource set you should be going for is the FastFood/Beer... dammit, I've written this before in private forums.

Copy/Paste/Edit

Wheat and Fish? This is awesome. The ONLY trade set you should have is the best trade set in the game. It's known as the FastFood/Beer/Construction set, aka the 3BR (three bonus resource) set.

The eleven essential trades:

Cattle, Fish, Aluminum, Water, Marble, Spices, Pig, Iron, Lumber, Sugar and Wheat.

That leaves one optional resource for you to choose. I'd go with uranium (so that you can buy nukes later on, and get a money bonus), though coal (big land and infra bonus) and gems (pure money) are also popular.

With a Wheat/Fish combo, any trade set besides the 3BR above is a terrible waste. Give all of your partners who don't fit in with this a day or twos notice, then drop the trades and get new ones.

Try not to collect taxes until you've got your trades set up. Join a 3BR trade circle that wants Wheat/Fish. 3BR is pretty popular, you'll have little to no trouble finding one.

Also: Alliances are a great source for trade partners and advice.

Regards,

Rail.

Actually Fish/Uranium wins top resource combo. But seriously, Beer/Construction/Fast Food + Fish + (Coal, Gems, Uranium) is what you should aim for. The population increase that you will gain from that set vs the one you propose is enough to cover all of the discounts of the resources in your set and then some.

I got Coal and cattle =D wanna trade?

[Shifuede]

I have rubber and wine...looking for a construction/autos/asphalt/steel/microchip/radiation cleanup/scholars guild

You have obviously forgotten about Iron/Water.

Honestly though Jack, you have the choice of any circle. The one you have chosen is a nearly always a last resort for players who have unfortunate resources.

i wouldnt call someone an idiot because you have no life.

[KMbanana]

If you do decide to keep this set you want to get water for beer.

Here's a link to a trade circle that's underway and needs wheat/fish.

It's maroon - sorry, I'm staying on the blue team. BTW how am I supposed to cancel my trades if the guy who is sending me the useless resources is the one that paid me millions?

[Jack the great]

Anyway this thread isn't valid any more. I am starting a construction/fast food/beer trade circle based on the blue team. If anyone would like to join reply to the thread: http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=20322
