When I build my Settler I scour the map for a good location to send him. One of the prime considerations, of course, is the available resources - especially ones I don't already have.
In my current game (Calabim, Huge Fantasy Map, Epic speed), I built my Settler and could not find any locations with resources I didn't think I had already. I opened up my resource window, and, damn if I didn't have every resource...except Sheep.
So, the Great Sheep Hunt began, and, no, I am not that kind of guy!
I found a Sheep resource, but it was in Doviello territory and I didn't want to declare war. No problem, in a few turns Mahala declared war on me. I had to rub out a couple of her cities, but then I took the city close to my borders with the Sheep resource.
I had managed to get all the resources in my game - I don't think I have ever done that before. There 's your challenge. (I did not have the hell terrain resources as I shut that feature off).
OK, it depends on the size and type of map and your game speed, and luck is certainly involved.
Of course, I got nothing for this achievement, but I would like to propose a Tower of Resources Wonder (or some other better-sounding thing) that you can build when you manage to secure every resource in the game.
Let's have the builder of the Tower of Resources Wonder gain 25 Gold per turn. I mean if you get something nice for collaring all the critters, you should get something for securing all the resources, right?
Also, you could have special resource achievements: All the grains and you can build a Great Granary, all the livestock, a Great Smokehouse both of which give you extra food in your civ. Nothing for a Great Mine though as you already have the chance of gifted resources with the metals.
OK, that last might be a bit much, but see if you can get all the FFH2 resources in your civ during your next game.
