Where does all the excess Resource go?
Greetings,
Forgive me if i'm forgetting the obvious, but I was wondering about something...
If Resource is not fully spent on units in a turn, are they wasted? If so, that doesn't seem right. Resource is already handicapped enough in that it's nowhere near as liquid a form of capital as gold.
In most economic models, "hard" capital like Resource is usually stockpiled, re-invested into the local economy or converted into a more liquid form of capital via trade. Like Alchemy, it isn't an efficient exchange, but it's better than being wasted.
Am I missing something here? Maybe it's a game balance issue.
