Great news from the future. The downside is I don't want to play Civ 5 any more.

Last night I was playing my 10th civ 5 campaign with holfgard's two mods. I was very surprised with the improvements in resource gathering. New buildings and resources makes the game almost upgraded. I recommend that modpack to everyone who is bored with the current economy gameplay...
