    Settling on resources good or bad?

    Hi, is settling on resources good or bad? Does settling on bonus resources (sheep, wheat, cattle, etc) give more food/production to the city tile, as if there is a pasture/farm? How about luxury and strategic resource tiles? Will the city get the extra food/production, plus the resource?

    How do I add more players to a scenario?

    Hi all, I just got BtS and I'm editing (using notepad :blush: ) the Earth 18 Civs map (which came with Vanilla) to add more civs. I think I have added the BeginTeam and BeginPlayer tags properly, but the new civs I added don't show up in the "Choose you civ" screen. What should I do?:blush:

    Is "Beyond the Sword" dead?

    Fort 'cheat' - is it a bug ? or design fault ?

    You get the resource with forts but not the economical benefit of the improvements (oil well, pasture, etc).
