How to balance a custom map?

Hey there,

I'm currently creating a custom map (actually Lungora's caucusus map except I cut it in half ) and have chosen starting locations for everyone, except they are never balanced as resources don't necessarily generate around the spots I chose. I'm trying to play as the Bizantine starting on the Bosphorus straight but that whole area ends up with 0 sea resources and almost to no luxury ones..

My question is, seeing as if I'll probably have to edit the resources myself, at least around the starting locations, how much of everything should everyone get? I don't want to have an unfair advantage over the AI but at the same time I'd rather settle around the straight and not go halfway across the map for some coal or whatever.

Thank you!
