Maybe storehouses (or other dropsites, besides civic centers), should have a resource holding limit. So when a unit drops off at a dropsite, it stores it there, but it has a limit. You couldn't use the resources in the dropsite, but you would have to transport it to a civic center. Once it gets to a civic center, it goes to the bar at the top of the screen. There could be a wagon unit or some transport unit that transports (maybe 100 at a time) resources to your civic. It would be a like a usb hub, you have multiple devices plugged in, but it has to get to your computer to use it. The dropsite could also have a range, any structures in that range use the dropsites resources first, then the ones on the top of the screen (or civic center), then it wouldn't be like a usb hub as much

Carthage has embassies because it's historically relied on foreign troops and technology to wage war (much like Saudi Arabia and UAE are doing today).
