Jack Grist Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 (edited) I have Fish & Pigs, and i used to think that they were both bad rescources - then i checked that fish gave you 8% more Citizens, and pigs give you 3.5%, so, i can offer nations an 11.5% Population Boost, so, my trades are good! Iv'e Always wanted to know, whats the best 2 Resources anyone can have? Wheat & Fish? 16% Population boost to anyone who trades, or Gems & Aluminium. POST YOUR OPINIONS HERE!

Nova Bacia Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 aluminium is probably the best resource. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinas Solamnus Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 Well based on my opinion, the resources that provide good bonuses are: Marble, Fish, Lumber, Wheat, Aluminum But to select the best 2, we must also consider the trade combinations in the game and make a decision based on wether they fit or not. The following three out of the good bonus providers make a good fit to combos: Marble - Wheat Aluminum - Marble Lumber - Wheat I'd have to say, the best is Aluminum and Marble.

Jack Grist Posted November 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 I guess it depends on what people like to trade with, people may take the trade that offers Infra reduction, or more citizens. The argument could go either way i guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unbiased mod Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 my lumber-water resources rock since I have them offcourse and because infra reduction + no land purchases needed makes a starting nation grow quickly and the resources get traded alot.

Nova Bacia Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 anything which fits into the agricultural trade setup are the best really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallfrog Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 my lumber-water resources rocksince I have them offcourse and because infra reduction + no land purchases needed makes a starting nation grow quickly and the resources get traded alot. narrows list down to 150...... As soon as you have to resources which are key to both the 5 bonus setup, or 3 bonus setup, you are fine. My aluminum and lumber always make it easy.

You want to aim for construction, beer and fast food as your bonuses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Janova Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 Fish-Wheat is excellent because even if you are short on resources you always have a high population. That means that as well as having no trouble in normal circumstances getting perfect trades, you can field a large army even if you're sanctioned, you can always get the most improvements and so on.

Magicman657 Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 Lumber - Iron is a sweet set to start with since pretty much everyone needs them regardless of what set they're going for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan524 Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 Gold, get it with microchips, a university, and a great university, makes for a good deal on tech. So you will also need lead, oil, and 10 tech with the gold for microchips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sin Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 I have fish and wheat and people aren't lining up to trade with me... Someone wanna explain that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rozalia Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 LEAD!!! To answer the above. Fish and wheat is resources everyone aims for. So 90% of people will have them. That means a lot of people with them together are left out. Thats why I think rerolling your nation is stupid and bad. Unless you have Furs and lead together I don't see the point in it.

Bob Sanders Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 I have fish and wheat and people aren't lining up to trade with me... Someone wanna explain that? Relatively small team? @OP Any combo of Wheat, Fish, Lumber, Iron, Marble, Aluminum is extremely good although Wheat, Fish is probably the best. If you have any combo of Wheat, Fish, Lumber, Iron, Marble, Aluminum, Pigs, Spices, Cattle, Sugar and Water you are pretty much set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
