Put it in British Columbia.
Make it pay out somewhere between cotton and oil.

And a twist: If you occupy a US city, you get to buy them for half price (25 geos) and it pays out twice as much as normal.

Just trying to reflect reality ;)

But seriously, the first part, I'd like to see a timer resource.

Maybe as a twist of his idea, how about a resource city per continent?

Existing
North America - Cotton
Middle East (SW Asia?) - Oil
Africa - Diamonds

Suggestions
South America - Timber (not sure what city?)
Europe - Beer (Munich)
SE Asia - Electronics (Tapei)
Australia or Oceania? -

Just something to throw around.

i think BC should have a different cash crop as a resource.

True true, but the subsidy would have to be dropped ;)

actually, in that case, all american cities should be paying into bonus income for holders of that particular resource...

I jest, but again in the real world...

I like it! :) we may use a couple! :cool:

Wool? Dairy/Meat?

we could also take it on a side-path and make it the army training country, so that bonus money come from all army purchaces & training costs?

Well, if people can make money from that, then we'd better have a grave diggers city as well. Somewhere underworld. Hey! There's one for australia ;)

And of course, they'd get money from dead troops.

Then Canada should be freshwater.... or snow.

Wool? Dairy/Meat?

Wine? Oz and NZ have some good wine these days.

Beer? No, that would be a equivalent to a tax on Australian cities :)

Yeah, I forgot about wine. I haven't had any NZ wines, but I'll have to check the store next time around.

Any suggestions on other possible resource centers? I was thinking if there was one for each continent / large geographic area it would help keep things more active.

Of course it would be neat if there were some other benefits tied in. I think of Risk where if you have a whole continent you get extra armies - maybe if you control all of a resource area you get a bonus too.

For example, the Wine resource city in Australia is city ABC. If you control all of the cities in Australia you get bonus production of 50%.

Of course that may be a little too complex for the time being (especially when working with alliances), but it doesn't hurt to dream :p

Well if you have timber down south then I propose the praries for wheat/grain.

Pelts (fur) maybe?

The earth is 75% water. How about a fishing industry?? I remember someone suggesting this to me in the previous version of the game.

Troops gotta eat, right??

I really think Australia.
Australia hasn't got a bonus city in the neighbourhood, and lots of fishing programs(like rex hunt) are from Australia.
What do you think?

I would suggest Australia or somewhere close to Asia. I think there's some water around there somewhere.

I think we should save Australia for Solar Power.

It would be VERY cool to actually have the australian solar collector project in GEWar!

But that would be far in the feature as we have a large number of other bonus cities.
I think this would spice up the fight for Australia as Australia isn't worth a lot yet and doesn't have anything near it.
And for us in Europe, Australia is known for it's great fishing capabilities(plus the fact its got a lot of water ;) ).

Just brainstorming :)

All good ideas, I'll be happy whatever is implemented.
The key points are adding more resource cities to areas that have low worth at this point, which we are all in agreement on, so I'm sure we're all going to be happy!

Europe - Beer (Munich)

The Beer city needs to be St. Louis, MO.

what's the difference if its a twinkie factory? or maby a chemical weapons plant? XTC dungeons? MCdonalds?

It's money :D

The Beer city needs to be St. Louis, MO.

I don't think St. Louis would pass as a beer city. I'm thinking Beer as in Bier, not Beer as in Water :D

Hey...with a reset coming up.....maybe we can talk his lordness into adding a new resource city. I know Alpha has fishing would be nice to have another on the main game.....shoot might make everyone a bit happier about the reset

i think hawaii would make sense just cause it right in the middle of the ocean

Iverson you already have Atlanta that side of the globe, you need to look at resources more towards Oz or Asia, that side of the globe.

India - Resource city for Red Peppers or Curry Leaves :)

Indonesia - Resource city for cloves (or Gold)

China - Resource city for silk (well, silk-worms)

Russia - Resource city for Caviar (yummy too)

Sri Lanka - Resource City for Tea Leaves

Brazil - Resource city for Coffee Beans

I like the idea of China having a resource city.

Could just make fish also like it is on the alpha game

I like hte fish city

Or a training camp for convicts in Australia which can be used as special (but drunk) forces so you never know what they will be able to achieve :D

100,000 drunk convicts tried to stumble towards the city of Sao Paulo but got lost and ended up in Honolulu where they partied all night and died from alcohol poisoning
