After playing some matches on normal mode, I have reached the conclusion that resources need to be richer. I would say a 50% boost in every resource would be ideal, specially in trees and metals. My reasoning: - After every match I played, they would last about 20-30 minutes because I was forced to attack before I ran out of resources near me (meaning expansion was inevitable.. but I had to fight for it) - Reaching the third age was almost never done because resources were so hard to get and the match was finished before I even got there Finally, my main reason: - I have never been able to build a wonder on a normal 1v1 game. This is because resources scarce way too much and end up being less useful by the end of a match. I would rather but 20 units then a wonder, since it takes time and resources I don't have. So, stop the deforestation! We need trees to hold more wood, since it is the most needed resource in the game and the hardest to find. It depletes too quickly!
